The Sartorialist & Pivot = Love

Tuesday, November 4th, 2008

The other week, the brilliant Sartorialist photographed women all over Milan and Paris wearing over-sized vests. These vests are particular fashion statements, shrouding the body creating a whimsical, interesting proportion. One of our favorite pieces this season falls right in line with this over-sized theme. The Frei Designs Yak Wrap Vest is a cool, animal-friendly alternative to the fur vests pictured on the Sartorialist. With a rounded neck and a belt, this Yak vest can be layered over a dress, t-shirt or thin jacket. Hey, maybe you’ll finally be spotted by Sart in this number. Maybe?
