[QUOTE="Debora, post: 4273831, member: 1476"]What's puzzling about your vest is it has darts. That's an unusual feature for an item of menswear. Fyi, found this 1960s vintage pattern for a vest very similar, but not identical to yours. The cut of vests changes just like that of any fashion item. Some years they're above the waist and some years they're below Some years they nip the waist and some years they're more boxy. In the 1970s, they were even worn as a sleeveless coat.
