Hello!
I have a 1930's waistcoat that has a white piping on the edge ("V" part of the waistcoat).
Please see the photo below for details.
After some research, I learned that this white piping is called "waistcoat slip" and there are two types of slips: a slip that is buttoned to the inside of the waistcoat opening and a slip that is directly sewn to the edge of the waistcoat.
As you can see in the photo, the waistcoat I own has a slip that is directly sewn to the edge (the latter type).
Does anyone have a photo of a gentleman wearing such a waistcoat?
I looked on the internet, but the photos I found are mostly gentlemen wearing waistcoats with "buttoned slips" (the former type).
By the way, the thread below is very informative about waistcoat slips (especially the posts by Fastuni).
