Men's Vintage-Inspired Waistcoat PDF Sewing Pattern

Prepared after purchase. Digital delivery within 1 business day. This first-release order is for preparing the PDF sewing pattern described below. Drafting starts after purchase; the files are not available for instant download. No finished garment or printed paper pattern is shipped.

Add a tailored layer to shirts with a men's waistcoat inspired by vintage separates. The planned construction uses a shaped front and lining, with a V-neck that keeps the shirt collar visible.

Design details

The planned design includes:

• V-neckline and buttoned front
• Shaped front panels
• Pointed lower front edge
• Planned lining and an adjustable back tab

Fabric ideas

A stable suiting, lightweight tweed or suitable linen could work for the outer layer. Pair it with a lining that moves comfortably against a shirt, and test the bulk where the front edges meet.

Sewing notes

Pay particular attention to the front points, button placement and lining sequence. Fit the waistcoat over the type of shirt you intend to wear beneath it.

Choose a contrasting waistcoat fabric for separate trousers, or use matching cloth for a coordinated outfit.
