Why a Designer Vest Belongs in Your Wardrobe

Vests keep the core warm while leaving the arms free, which makes them ideal for changeable Melbourne weather. A good designer vest adds structure to casual outfits and an extra layer under outerwear on cold days, without the bulk of a full jacket. It is also one of the easiest pieces to travel with.

Designer Vests at MARAIS

Our men's vests range from quilted puffers with down or synthetic fill to lightweight technical gilets and knitted styles. Look for considered details such as high collars, snap closures and utility pockets. When you want full coverage, move up to bomber jackets or denim jackets, while tweed jackets suit smarter occasions.

How to Layer a Vest

Wear a puffer vest over a hoodie or crewneck for weekends, or over a shirt and knit for a sharper look. Women's styles live in Women's designer vests, and selected pieces appear in the Men's vests sale. Discover more Men's luxury designer fashion and shop designer vests at MARAIS.
