Single-Breasted Shawl Collar Waistcoat
This single-breasted waistcoat features an elegant shawl collar and is based on an original draft from Louis Devere’s The Handbook of Practical Cutting on the Centre Point System, published in 1866. With its sweeping collar, fitted silhouette, and distinctly mid-Victorian character, the design is well suited to both civilian daywear and more formal 1860s ensembles.
