The Halterneck Silk-Blend Waistcoat

This piece is part of the COS ATELIER collection, a limited capsule founded on the principles of luxury and exceptional design. The ATELIER backless waistcoat lends itself beautifully to layering but looks equally striking worn solo. It has been expertly tailored for a classic cut and has a cinched waist, a low cowl back supported by an elasticated band and a slender halterneck in lieu of traditional shoulder straps. Our stylists suggest wearing it as a three-piece suit with the deconstructed blazer and trousers from the collection.

• 78% Viscose, 18% Mulberry silk, 4% Elastane
