Women's Vests FAQ
How do I clean and care for a sherpa vest to keep it soft?
To keep a sherpa vest soft, always check the care label first. Typically, they require gentle spot cleaning or a machine wash on a delicate cycle in cold water. It is essential to use a mild detergent and never put them in the dryer, as the heat can permanently damage the fibers. Always hang or lay flat to air dry.
Are long vests flattering on petite women?
Yes, long vests can be incredibly flattering on petite women if styled correctly. The key is to choose one that has a clean, streamlined fit and wear it open over a monochrome outfit. This creates strong vertical lines that help to elongate the figure. Avoid overly bulky fabrics or vests that extend past the knee.
How should a quilted puffer vest fit; snug or relaxed?
A quilted puffer vest should generally fit relaxed enough to comfortably accommodate a medium-weight sweater underneath, but still snug at the shoulders so it doesn't look sloppy. It should not feel tight across the chest, and the hem should ideally fall at the hip or slightly below to balance your figure.
What's the difference between a vest with pockets and a sleeveless jacket?
There is no functional difference. The terms vest with pockets and sleeveless jacket are interchangeable and refer to the same garment—a piece of outerwear that covers the torso but is open at the arms. "Sleeveless jacket" tends to emphasize the garment's outerwear function, while "vest" is the general, widely used name.
