Man’s waistcoat with a round neckline, curving fronts and skirts reaching to the top of the thigh. Each front has a pocket and pointed pocket flap. The fronts and pocket flaps are made of ivory ribbed silk, the back of bleached linen. The waistcoat and pockets are lined with linen; the skirt and pocket flap linings and front facings are ivory silk twill. The waistcoat is embroidered-to-shape, tamboured with silk thread in green, purple and shades of pink and blue, in a pattern of small flowers, leaves and intersecting lines, on the pocket flaps, front edges and hems, around the front neck and below the pockets. There are 15 worked buttonholes along the left front, with 14 (1 missing) silk thread passementerie buttons on the right front.
