Indigo Denim Cropped Vest

Redefine the silhouette. This indigo cropped vest fuses sculptural intention with personal legacy - designed not just to be worn, but remembered.

Material & Craftsmanship:
Crafted in the USA from a durable 98% cotton and 2% spandex blend, the structure of this piece offers both edge and ease. The fabric provides a form-fitting hold with the flexibility to move, embracing the body with architectural clarity while maintaining breathable softness.

Design Philosophy:
This vest tells a story of resilience—originally adorned with EKG tracings as a tribute to the designer’s daughter’s survival from a near-fatal crash. Though the visual symbols are now absent, the essence of that narrative remains stitched into the design. Featuring asymmetric buttoning and gunmetal hardware, the piece offers a staggered or shoulder-revealing configuration—an elevated reinterpretation of classic denim.

Versatility & Styling:
Wear as a statement over a crisp blouse, or layered beneath an oversized coat for dimensional contrast. Whether paired with structured trousers or raw-hemmed denim, the vest invites experimental elegance from day to dusk.

An emblem of GAO’s ongoing dialogue between emotion, craftsmanship, and wearable art. This piece embodies our commitment to innovation, sustainability, and the unapologetic pursuit of self-expression. It belongs to those reshaping the future of fashion with every thread they wear.
