Is this vest warm enough for winter?

It is a lightweight fashion puffer, not a cold-weather layer. It works over a hoodie or sweater in mild to cool weather, but the sleeveless, cropped cut leaves arms and the lower torso exposed.

How does the plus size fit run?

The product is shown on a model who is 5'11" wearing a Size 1X. The cut is cropped at the waist, so check the garment measurements against a vest you already own if you want a looser layer over thick knits.

Can I machine wash it?

No. The care instructions say hand wash cold, and the shell, lining and fill are all polyester.

Does it have pockets or a hood?

No hood and no pockets are part of this design. It has a funnel neck and a zip front closure.

What do I wear under a cropped puffer vest?

A hoodie, long-sleeve tee or fitted knit works well, since the sleeveless cut leaves arms free. High-waisted bottoms balance the short hem.

Our take on the Forever 21 Plus Size Cropped Puffer Vest

This is a sleeveless, quilted puffer vest in plus sizing, cut short at the waist with a funnel neck and a zip front. The channel stitching keeps the fill evenly spread and the cropped hem makes it a layering piece over hoodies, long-sleeve tees or knitwear rather than a standalone outer layer. It is a fashion layer, not a technical one: polyester shell and lining, hand wash only, and no water resistance or insulation rating. Rivals in this space are similar fashion puffers from other fast-fashion labels; this one stands out mainly on the cropped, sleeveless silhouette and the plus-size fit rather than on materials or weather performance.
