Complimentary delivery on this piece, Australia-wide.

A waistcoat only works if it is structured at the shoulder and light everywhere else. Otherwise it wears like a gilet.

BA&SH cut the Essy from a viscose blend with tailoring lines in it, so it holds its shape over a shirt. It holds it on its own too, buttoned, with nothing underneath. That second way of wearing it is the reason to own one.

Ecru keeps it out of the bridal register, where plain white would put it.

Fit. Tailored. True to size.

ba&sh is a Paris house and labels most pieces in its own sizes, 0 to 4, with trousers in French sizes. Australian sizes are the same as UK sizes. The house publishes the conversion: a ba&sh 0 is an AU 6, 1 an AU 8, 2 an AU 10, 3 an AU 12 and 4 an AU 14. In French sizes, a 36 is an AU 8 and a 38 an AU 10. The measurements below are the house's own, in centimetres, taken from the body rather than the garment.

Measurements in centimetres. Body measurements, not garment measurements. Trousers labelled 34 to 42 follow the French column.

Choosing between two sizes

ba&sh publishes one chart and no separate fit advice, so read your size from your measurements. The house number sits well below the Australian one: a ba&sh 1 is an AU 8 and a 2 an AU 10. Any style we know to run differently is noted in its Fit line.

How to measure

Bust: around the fullest part, the tape straight and taut.
Waist: around the narrowest part of the natural waistline, above the navel and below the ribcage.
Hip: around the lowest and fullest part of the hip.
