Madewell Kim Wavy Stitch Vest Vintage Ivory

Product Insights & Style Tips

The Madewell Kim Wavy Stitch Vest in Vintage Ivory truly nails that cool, nonchalant vibe—light as air, a little bit retro, and seriously versatile. The pointelle knit is touchably soft and featherweight, working in just enough sheer with its open stitching to keep things interesting. A scalloped trim traces the edges, lending a hint of femininity to the otherwise unfussy cut, and the creamy ivory shade feels easy and elevated, somewhere between borrowed-from-grandma and just-off-the-runway.

This vest has a laid-back fit that floats along the body, skimming without clinging, thanks to the all-cotton composition and subtle stretch. The crew neckline and button placket let it adapt: wear it buttoned as a solo top with everything from denim to boxer shorts, or pop it open over a slip dress or tee when the temps cool down. The sleeveless cut means it slips under jackets and oversized blazers or stands alone when you want to keep things airy. Madewell’s Kim Wavy Stitch Vest rides the line between sweater and tank, landing on that sweet spot you’ll keep finding new ways to wear—from coffee dates to rooftop nights, it goes there without missing a beat.
