We appreciate that online shopping in itself requires delivery which has an impact on the environment. In an effort to negate some of this impact, we look to encourage conscious returns by charging a small fee for returns. Our feeling is that a free returns service fails to make some customers stop and think about the environmental cost of returned items. This is the cost we incur for each return and this cost is simply passed on. This charge will be deducted from your refund.

"I’m delighted with this gorgeous waistcoat. Great fit (I’m a 10-12 and the small is perfect - room for a jumper underneath if you so wished). A lovely flattering fit and the stripes are fun yet classic. The pop of colour from the red around the button holes adds a little colour. Many compliments received. Thank you, Kate."
"I am very happy with this well made waistcoat but, as with a number of items I’ve bought from Kate Barton ( black and white check trousers and waistcoat ) I’ve had to make some small adjustments. In this case I took in the armhole dimension so that it flared out a little bit. This suited me better. It looks great with my washed denim jeans and shirts and I particularly like the red stitching on the buttonholes."
"Absolutely beautiful…. . well made and attention to detail is first class."
"This waistcoat is beautiful. The fabric and cut are excellent. It’s so comfortable and stylish. It’s my third Kate Barton waistcoat and I get so much wear out of them all, with dresses, jeans, skirts …… I’ve had so many compliments. I think the stripe is possibly my fave. Kate Barton clothes are so beautifully made, using lovely fabrics."
"Love a waistcoat and this one doesn’t disappoint"
"Just ordered this and it arrived yesterday. I LOVE it!! Fits beautifully and love the fact that it has a very slight stretch. Wore it today over a long sleeve t and felt a million dollars!"
"The waistcoat is of high quality and I was complimented immediately when wearing it. I wish I could order more items more often but the price point is a little beyond my reach – certainly not undeserving of course, as one gets what one pays for. I will definitely buy from this company again."
