The Nina Waistcoat
Meet Nina, our linen blend petite co-ord waistcoat. We knew we had to design something truly special for The Shortlist’s first ever top: and here she is. Darts and a contoured silhouette make for a sharp, tailored silhouette, complete with tortoiseshell buttons and faux welt pockets. Made from a premium linen/cotton blend, Nina can be worn with the matching Sabine trousers, with jeans, with a skirt, dressed up, dressed down…need we go on?
Nina is the waistcoat half of our summer co-ord, designed to be worn with the Sabine trousers or as a standalone piece.
Crafted in a cotton/linen blend with a structured drape
Tortoiseshell effect buttons with a luxe feel
Faux welt pocket detailing
Front seams for a tailored fit through the body
Cropped length sits perfectly with trousers
Self-faced for a clean, structured finish
Designed for petites - with an adjusted length, narrower shoulders and proportioned neckline drop.
Laura wears a size 6. Her measurements are 32-26-37 and she’s 5’1.5”
Danielle wears a size 12 in the Soft Stone and a size 10 in the Black, to demonstrate a closer and looser fit. Her measurements are 36-30-39 and she’s 5’2”
Nina's gently fitted through the bust and relaxed through the waist, so we recommend choosing your size based on your bust measurement. If you're between sizes, size up.
Length from shoulder to hem is approximately 50cm.

This is a premium natural blend, 50% linen, 48% cotton, 2% elastane. It has all the beautiful natural texture of linen without the creasing.
Nina can be washed at 30°C, inside out with similar colours, on a delicate cycle. That said, she’s a tailored piece, so to keep the structure sharp and the colour looking its best (especially in black), we recommend spot cleaning where possible and occasional dry cleaning.
Air dry flat and iron on a medium setting. Don't tumble dry.
