The waistcoat shown here is cut in an ‘Anni Albers’ linen and cotton tartan jacquard. To start this decade, Patric has chosen to pay tribute to the designer who has given weaving acclaim thanks to her talent, her rigor ... and her participation in the Bauhaus movement. Her works of art are now presented in many museums. It is the aesthetic sensitivity of Anni Albers and her approach to textiles as raw material that inspired this black and beige linen and cotton jacquard. The complex weaving technique gives this random tartan motif all its relief and depth. Here is a magnificent garment that will flatter your taste for colour and resonance – for art and culture lovers.
You would lie to stay elegant but prefer wearing a waistcoat than a jacket, which sometimes looks overdressed? Then the patch-pocket waistcoat will become a central piece of your wardrobe.
Its cut is the one of a three-piece suit: it should be close fitting without ever restraining you. That is why we suggest you should pick a size smaller than your jacket’s size. If your jacket says 52, choose a size 50!
Hollington’s waistcoat shows a V-shape collar and is traditionally worn with the lower button open. The back fabric is the same as the front fabric and it has no plait to respect the pure aesthetics of the clothing line. It also holds two side slits allowing a perfect freedom of movement, and a slightly plunging cut.
Inside is a zipped chest pocket large enough to contain your wallet. Outside, three patch pockets are maintained by topstitched seams.
Hollington favours double, symmetrical seams to underline the architectural structure of the garment.
