Open Back Halter Tailored Vest

With the Open Back Halter Tailored Vest, VETEMENTS reinterprets the classic tailored waistcoat through a distinctive, body-contouring silhouette. The piece comes in an intense, almost jet-black shade, allowing the buttons, seams, and pockets to blend subtly into the base color for a consistently monochrome appearance. Its defining feature is the deep-cut halterneck, which extends from the front around the neck while leaving the shoulders and upper back exposed. The fitted construction fastens at the front with five black buttons, while shaping seams further define the structured silhouette. Two narrow welt pockets reference traditional tailoring, complemented by a subtle tonal VETEMENTS detail near the lower section. The back provides the design’s most distinctive element: instead of a conventional waistcoat back, the piece features a largely open construction with a wide, low-set back panel. A pointed hem reinforces the reference to traditional menswear tailoring while creating a striking contrast with the revealing halter cut. Combining classic tailoring details with a modern, deconstructed aesthetic, this black VETEMENTS vest is designed for expressive designer looks with a clean, defined silhouette.

• Color: deep, almost entirely monochrome black

• Halterneck with largely exposed shoulders and back

• Front with five buttons and two narrow welt pockets

• Fitted tailored cut with a pointed hem
