Hippie cardigan with fringes

The hippie vest with fringes is a sleeveless vest made of 100% polyester in dark brown, with fringes across the chest panels and along the entire hem. You wear it open over a bare chest or over a printed shirt with a wide collar and light jeans. For men going to a 60s party, a flower power party or carnival, the hippie look is easily achieved in just one layer.

Dark brown, fringes and a rainbow trim

• The vest is sleeveless and has an open front without buttons or other closure.
• Both chest panels have fringes, and along the bottom hem runs a second, longer fringe border.
• Along both front edges is a narrow trim in rainbow colors, which breaks up the brown.
• The fabric is 100% polyester with a matte, suede-like appearance.
• You can choose from the men's sizes S/M, L/XL and XXL.
• Wash by hand, do not bleach, do not tumble dry, do not iron and do not dry clean.

Why does a hippie wear a vest with fringes?

The fringed vest belongs to the image of the hippie movement of the 60s and 70s, in which earth tones, suede and handiwork set the tone against the neat ready-to-wear clothing of that time. The fringes move with every step and dance move, and that was exactly the intention. A brown vest has a calmer look than a fur-batik piece, so it leaves room for a heavily printed shirt underneath. If you want the vest to speak for itself, you wear it over a bare chest.

This is how you complete the flower power look

A colored headband and round sunglasses with tinted lenses immediately make the era recognizable. A peace necklace should also be included, plus wide jeans or trousers with flared legs. If you wear a wig, choose long hair with a wave in it, that fits the height of the neckline. A paisley or floral shirt with long sleeves complements the vest into a complete men's outfit.

Choose this hippie vest with fringes and you will enter a 60s or 70s party in full flower power style as a gentleman.
