Awesome vest ~ size down!
I know Dennis Basso makes quality items and this vest is beautiful. The fur is super soft and the vest does not add bulk. I hope to get a lot of wear out of this one.
I know from prior experience that Basso outerwear runs big. I am the one who asked the question about sizing here on dotcom....and based on the two answers I received and the garment size chart, I ordered an XL vest. I am normally a 1X in most tops due to bust size and broad shoulders but have recently lost a little weight.
The XL was huge on me! I was swimming in it. I returned for a medium.... yes TWO sizes down, and it fits just fine. I am not a medium in anything! Please be aware that the flattering knit side panels are very forgiving with lots of stretch.
This vest makes a statement and will look amazing with jeans and boots.

Love It!
This vest looks soooo much better in person than on the website! Hunted for a fur vest that didn't add bulk and this is it. It's extremely comfortable because of the knit side panels. The faux fur is luxurious and at the clearance price, it's a steal! Will check out other Dennis Basso items as a result of this purchase.

Designer quality, a WOW
Just received this fabulous faux fur vest and was absolutely thrilled. The fur looks and feels real, the fit is great and it looks far more expensive than it is. I have seen lesser quallity pieces of this sort at far greater prices. I am a big fan of Dennis Basso's faux fur throws and have several of his coats. He does incorporate his couture details in his QVC products. Keep them coming!!!!

Fantastic
This vest is just beautiful. The fur looks and feels like the real thing. Dennis really hit the mark when he added the knit sides. Not only does it add style but makes for a great fit. It gives the vest stretch to fit over bulky sweaters while still being comfortable. This is a definite keeper. If you've had trouble finding a fur vest that closes comfortably, this is for you. Please make more items with knit sides. What a difference.. If you're thinking about buying this, don't hesitate. You'll love it.

Best fur vest ever!
Love this faux fur vest. It is indeed very flattering, sliming even! The fur is super soft and realistic looking. The collar is cozy and warm, the lining and details say "high quality, well made garment". Would sell for at least double in stores IF you could find it!
Dennis please make more pieces in this fur, sliming casual jackets for everyday wear with jeans and boots for your younger gal clients! A cute hat would be great too!!!
I'll wear this year round even with a white t shirt and jeans in cooler summer months.
Great piece...I'll be back!

Love it!
Received this vest 2 weeks ago & love the purchase. The fit is great with the knit fabric down the side panels, makes it quite slimming. Thanks Dennis!

Fabulous, fabulous vest!
I wanted to love the faux fur vests, but they always appeared too bulky or too tight. With this vest, the fabric side panels make a huge difference! The vest is beautiful and very comfy thanks to the fabric panels. When I first tried it on, it just slipped on like a glove. Please Dennis, make more of these in more colors! These are faux fur vests I can truly enjoy! I have many Basso coats and now I can get vests in the same super quality that the Basso name has.

Soft fur and great design
All I can say is "Wow". I opened up the box and knew it was a keeper. I have Rachael Zoe's vest, which I love, but when you close the hooks, there is no give when you sit down. This vest has the ribbed sweater material on the sides, which gives a slimming illusion, but also stretches with you when you sit down and need a little more room. I think this is a very smart design. The fur looks and feels real. I am 5'4" and 135 lbs. with a chest measurement of about 36 and usually a 6-8. The XS is perfect. His designs run a little big for me, so I knew I could order XS and be fine.

Loving this vest
This is my first fur vest cause I did not think I would look right- boy was I wrong- this is so cute, comfortable and kinda sexy with either a black, cream or even a tan outfit- Dennis is the best when it comes to coats, jackets and vests.
