Moorberry Vest by Jonna Helin
Moorberry is a relaxed, elegant vest with a deep V-neck and a fabulous drape, designed for layering or standing boldly on its own. The idea was born from the rich, berry-toned hue that kept catching my eye on long afternoons in Paris, sitting on a terrace with a book in hand, watching the world go by. There was something about the mood – effortless, feminine, slightly mysterious – that I wanted to capture in stitches.
