“Il Segreto” Dual-Layer Vest

Concept: Tailoring as quiet armor — a vest designed like a protective shell, blending formal restraint with hidden complexity.

Visual Direction:

  • Garment-only hybrid sketch (front + back views)

  • Dual-layer front construction: outer matte wool panel and inner silk guard panel peeking subtly at the neckline

  • Concealed side snap closures for seamless structure

  • Gold annotations for layer overlap, hidden fastening, and tonal silk lining

  • Fabric: matte wool-cashmere, black silk inner guard, brushed metal hardware

  • Subtle shoulder contouring for a sculpted silhouette
  • Fabric: matte wool-cashmere, black silk inner guard, brushed metal hardware

  • Tone: deep black with anthracite edging for definition
