Abrazo means hug in Spanish and when I was designing this piece I was looking for a classic, effortless garment easy to pair with the majority of my outfits. That simple, casual piece that goes with everything and that naturally elevates your look and makes life easier when you’re in a hurry and all you need is something flattering and drapey to make you immediately feel nice and serene. Like a simple hug.

On a person with a smaller chest, the vest will almost touch on the sides when it’s shoulder width. A person with a larger chest can choose a shoulder width size that leaves space on the sides of the body or a larger size that will leave little space on the sides but will hang over the shoulders.

Thanks to its versatility you can choose to gently tie the straps in front of the chest or, why not wear the vest backwards and knot the straps with a bow on your back?
