These bargain M&S vests are a year-round essential: 'Ideal as an extra layer'

M&S vests
Ringing in at just over £3 each, these affordable and versatile vest tops deserve a place in your wardrobe. (Marks & Spencer)

When it comes to wardrobe essentials at affordable prices, no one quite does it like Marks & Spencer. Case in point: This popular classic three-pack vest set is versatile, excellent quality (according to the 700+ reviews) and a bargain, working out at just £3 per vest.

You can wear one on its own with summer skirts or shorts, pop one under a blazer for work, wear a vest top to bed with some pyjama bottoms or shorts, or use it under see-through and/or low-cut blouses. And if you're prone to feeling chilly, a vest is a great extra layer to add.

The slender straps sit comfortably on your shoulders which comes in handy when you want to discreetly throw one on under dresses to avoid any unwanted bumpy lines.

These versatile vests are available in five different colour/pattern combos, you'll need fast fingers because this high-quality bargain is flying off the virtual shelves.

Sizes range from 6-28, with unique and playful detail- perfect for lounging around on a warm day or for layering on those chilly winter morning walks.

Why we rate it

For starters these vests are 95% cotton which means they're cool, comfortable, and breathable.

The fabric is responsibly sourced, too - M&S has partnered with the Better Cotton Initiative.

Then there's the added stretch factor. This means they fit beautifully, softly hugging your body rather than squeezing it so you get rolls and lumps in places you wouldn't normally.

The cut of the V-neck is spot on - it covers your bra and your cleavage without being too restrictive or frumpy looking.

What the reviews say

The fit, the fabric, the quality and the price point are just three of the many reasons that M&S shoppers are raving about this vest top three-pack.

  • "These vests are a good fit and comfortable to wear. I was so pleased with them I ordered another three. I find the length of these is perfect..(so many others I have had have been very long in the body) I am usually a 10/12 …I bought size 10 and they are a great fit."

  • "A great essential to have, good for summer to go under lighter tops and great for winter when you want to wear layers. Quality is excellent and wash well. Good value for money."

  • "Love these vests. Have several in different colours. Lovely material. So comfy and easy to wear. I did size up from a 16 to 18. Ideal as an extra layer in the cold weather or to wear on their own in hot weather."

  • "The vest three pack is lovely. I was surprised by the quality of the vests. They are better than some I have seen costing double the amount! Tremendous value!"

  • "Just what’s needed for the summer to put under linen shirt or summer dress. Not too thick but not thin either to show the lumps & bumps!"
