Hi guys,

This is my first post here, so I'm not sure if this is against the rules, but...I certainly hope it isn't ! Anyway, I will keep this short, basically I've seen an outfit and fallen in love with it and would like to try something similar to it myself, just to see if I can pull it off !

This is the outfit :

Does anyone know where I can find a waistcoat similar to the one in that picture ? I think for the outfit to work, it would have to have the lapels like that one, and I've looked around but I can't find anything similar. Can anyone please help ?

Everything else I can buy pretty easily, the blazer is just a nice fitted one (how much does it cost to get a suit tailored?), the jeans are jeans, and the tshirt I don't like so much to be honest.

Anyone able to help me please ? Doesn't need to be exactly the same, just similar...I really like the one in it, though apparently it is vintage ! Preferably something cheap too...you know how it is !

It's a waistcoat with lapels - what's the big deal? Order one from Bookster or Pakeman or Ede & Ravenscroft.

The only vests recently that I've seen with so many buttons were at a Bottega Veneta store, and in fact, they might have had even more.
