Product Overview
The Brook Taverner Scapoli Waistcoat is a sophisticated addition to any professional female wardrobe, specifically engineered for the demands of a modern workplace. Part of the renowned Sophisticated Collection, this navy check waistcoat offers a refined aesthetic that balances traditional tailoring with the practical requirements of daily wear. The tailored fit ensures a sharp silhouette, while the high-quality fabric blend provides the comfort needed for long shifts in client-facing environments.
Key Features
- The four-button front offers a secure and classic fastening, maintaining a professional and streamlined appearance throughout the day.
- Two functional welt pockets provide convenient storage for small professional essentials without disrupting the clean lines of the tailoring.
- The cloth-backed design ensures the waistcoat maintains its structure and looks as professional from the rear as it does from the front, even when worn without a jacket.
- A 51cm centre back length (at size 12R) provides a balanced proportion that sits comfortably at the waistline, ideal for pairing with formal trousers or skirts.
Design & Performance
The performance of this garment is rooted in its technical fabric composition, featuring a blend of 54% polyester, 44% wool, and 2% LYCRA® Elastane. This medium-weight fabric offers the best of all worlds: the wool provides natural breathability and a luxury texture, the polyester ensures the garment is durable and resistant to creasing, and the Lycra provides essential stretch. This allows for a full range of movement, ensuring the waistcoat does not feel restrictive during active tasks.
Customisation: Print & Embroidery
The Scapoli Waistcoat is an excellent canvas for branding. For a truly professional and premium finish, we recommend embroidery. Our in-house team in Telford, established in 1976, uses high-precision equipment to apply company logos or staff names, which perfectly complements the sophisticated wool-blend texture. For larger, more vibrant branding, high-quality print options are also available. Both methods are executed with the expertise gained from decades of experience, ensuring your branding remains durable and clear.
Use Cases
This garment is specifically designed for front-of-house roles, hospitality management, and corporate office environments. Its navy check pattern provides a subtle touch of personality that distinguishes your team while maintaining a formal standard of dress. It is equally suited for receptionists, hotel staff, and estate agents who require a polished, reliable uniform.

Practical Advice
To ensure the best fit, we recommend measuring against the 51cm back length to see where the garment will sit on your frame. This waistcoat is designed to be worn over a blouse or shirt; if you intend to layer it over thicker garments, you may wish to consider how this affects the tailored silhouette.
Caring for your product
To maintain the structural integrity and appearance of the Scapoli Waistcoat, it is fully machine washable. We recommend using a gentle cycle at a consistent temperature to protect the delicate wool fibres and ensure the Lycra keeps its elastic properties.
When washing, avoid using harsh chemicals that could degrade the fabric or cause the navy check pattern to fade. Regular machine washing according to the instructions will help prevent the buildup of oils and dust that can wear down the fabric over time.
After washing, the garment should be hung correctly to minimise the need for heavy ironing, which can cause 'shine' on wool-blend fabrics. If ironing is necessary, use a cool setting to protect both the material and your custom embroidery or print from heat damage.
