’90s suit vests are trending for 2023 — here’s how to style them

Thanks to Bridgerton (and, of course, TikTok), corsets have consistently topped trending fashion lists of the past year. And while we’re not saying you won’t ever wear the curve-hugging top again, Stylight data shows that shoppers in 2023 are looking to introduce a new style into their wardrobes — suit vests.

While shopper demand for corset tops reached its peak in early 2022, the interest in vests has already risen by 165 percent since this fall.

Early adopters of the trend are taking inspiration from the ’90s and wearing it solo as a top or part of a three-piece set, complete with a jacket and matching trousers.

For inspiration on how to wear your suit-style vest in the new year and shop the trend before anyone else, scroll below.
