Antique Brown Real Leather Waistcoat Vest Sleeveless Steampunk Bolero

This sleeveless waistcoat is made from real leather in an antique brown finish, designed as a steampunk bolero-style layering piece. The fitted, sleeveless cut sits easily over a shirt, blouse or corset, adding structure and a genuine leather finish to gothic and steampunk outfits without extra bulk on the arms. Real leather holds its shape and colour well over repeated wear, making this a durable option for regular convention or cosplay use rather than a single-event piece. Being sleeveless also helps keep it comfortable to layer under a coat or jacket for a full day of wear. Fit through the chest and waist matters for a waistcoat like this, so please check our size guide before ordering, and ask about made to measure for a closer fit. Expect some natural grain and colour variation across the leather, which is normal for a genuine hide and gives each piece its own individual character. See more in our women’s costumes collection.
