How does the sizing run?

It is cut for plus sizes, with 3XL as the largest option shown. The knit has some stretch, but the openwork panels do not give much, so check the bust measurement against the size chart before ordering.

Can I wear it on its own?

Yes. The hollow stitching is open, so a nude or matching camisole underneath keeps it covered. Most people layer it over a tee or shirt instead.

Is it warm enough for winter?

No. It is a lightweight sleeveless knit with open panels. It works as a middle layer over long sleeves in fall or spring, not as outerwear in cold weather.

How should I wash it?

Hand wash or use a mesh bag on a gentle cycle, then dry flat. The openwork stitches can stretch out of shape on a hanger or in a dryer.

What colors does the gradient come in?

The vest is multicolor, fading between blue and purple tones across the body. Because each piece is dyed, the exact placement of the gradient can vary slightly.
