Navy Gabardine Double Breasted WaistcoatFavourbrooks navy gabardine double breasted waistcoat, cut with dramatic shawl lapels, is crafted from smooth, tightly woven wool gabardine crisp, matte and subtly lustrous. Born as 17th century riding wear, the waistcoat reached dandified heights in the Regency and Roaring Twenties. This bold, sculptural iteration brings 1930s glamour and contemporary panache to morning coats or creative black tie.
