Fit a Shirt Under This Ruffle-Trim Sweater Vest

Check collar, armhole and hem placement before choosing a shirt for the orange-trim taupe vest.

The taupe contrast-trim vest has an orange crew neck and light ruffled armholes. The deciding question is not just whether the bust range matches: will a shirt collar and sleeves sit cleanly beside that visible trim?

Test the layer in three places

  1. Put on the shirt you intend to wear. Check whether its collar reaches above, below or directly against the orange crew neck.
  2. At the armhole, see whether the shirt sleeve creates a crease under the ruffle. A fine shirt and a bulky blouse can produce very different edges.
  3. Compare the vest’s intended hem position with the shirt hem and your trouser waistband. Decide whether the shirt should show at the bottom.

The source gives approximate bust guidance of 34.5–35.5 inches for S, 36.5–37.5 for M and 39–40.5 for L. It does not say whether these are body or finished-vest figures. Measure a vest that fits over your chosen shirt, then request the actual flat chest and armhole measurements for the selected size. Taupe Multi is the only listed colour. No fiber percentages are supplied, so rely on the sewn label for care rather than assuming a wool or cotton knit.
