the chalet puffer vest

I’d been eyeing this for a while, figuring it would either be amazing or not work at all. It’s amazing- well-finished material, classy, and fashion-forward looking. It does have wider shoulders so you need to be comfortable with that look, but if so it will level up any outfit. I would recommend one size down from your typical Aritzia shirt size.

Great for for work and casual wear! Almost used it daily the first week I received it!

Wonderful detail, warm and elegant. Be careful of makeup!

I took the black color in size small. I tried the size xs but i find it too short. I really like the side zip pockets and the interior pocket. It makes the vest more convenient if you need to put things in it. On the website, with the photos, you can fit the vest with a nice chic urban outfit but I also wear the vest before I get to the gym with a pair of legging and a sweatshirt. It is very versatile. Also it is a warm vest since it is made of down fills so it is perfect for the transition before winter for a temperature between 12-18 degres.

perfect, the prettiest vest evers

This vest is made to be a statement piece. I was coveting it for nearly a year and saw it was back in stock in late-Spring. Didn’t want to miss out so ordered it in both S and M. Small is definitely shorter in length and Medium gives it the fullness and the shoulders “peak” nicely like the pictures. Stay true to size. Layers nicely and adds depth to any outfit. Probably my most favourite piece to add a little oomf to a casual outfit.

I’m regularly a s or m in Aritzia tops, depending on some things I’m a 2 to get the oversized fit Bc I am tall. I ordered this in a medium and while I like the idea of the design it just didn’t look good on me or layered with anything. The sleeves were too angular and the cinching made me look more like a stay puff marshmallow. I love things super oversized and often dress like an old raver, a lot of my clothes are overly baggy. There was just something about this for that didn’t look right. If you want it just for show I would size down and wear it with nothing or something very slim underneath…not for layering imho. My regular super puff (which is a s and I wish I got. Med) is still a better look to me and are able to layer better with. Looks amazing in photos, didn’t work for me in person. Returned

Usually I’m a large and the medium fits perfect with a hoodie. Looks really good! Love it!

I originally bought size large online but had to exchange it for a medium. I’m 5 months pregnant, my usual size is large and I am still able to zip up the vest and be comfortable with size medium. It very puffy - I would suggest sizing down.

This is a great vest to dress up or down, I ordered a size medium even though it recommended a size large. Height is 5’4 and weight 168 lbs. This is definitely an oversized fit.

Love the color, love the fit. It's actually quite warm, perfect for late fall and early spring.

Love that you can dress this up or down. It is does fit a big larger, I probably could’ve gone down a size for a more fitted style. But if you like things over sized a bit stick to your usual size.

If you are contemplating this vest, here is your sign to get it! It is very flattering if you have an hour glass shape as you can alter and adjust the waist. However, if you don't, it can enhance your waist and give you that look as well. I also like the dropped shoulder detail which gives it a bit of a designer (Rick Owens) luxe feel compared to your regular vest. You can dress it up with a jumpsuit and nice boots or wear it casually with a jogger set and cute sneakers. Either way, it's definitely a must for this fall and winter season! It fits true to size in my opinion. Depending on how you'd like to wear it, I suggest going in store and trying it on to decipher which size is best. Overall, its a beautiful vest! You will not be disappointed!
