OLIVIA VEST

9,50

Inspiration
This vest came out of a conversation with a friend. She said that she couldn’t find vests that she liked and that she would really like to be able to wear vests, so I got down to work and this is how the Olivia vest was born.

Sizes

1 (2, 3, 4, 5, 6, 7) with a bust circumference on finished garment of 94 (105, 116, 127, 133, 144, 155) cm/37 (41.25, 45.75, 50, 50.25, 56.75, 61)”. 10-15 cm/4-6” of positive ease at bust is recommended.
