And if you've got your thermals on today to beat the icy weather, you're not alone. The vest, believe it or not, is this season's "hot" fashion item.
Clare Jenkins traces its multi-layered history, and pays a visit to the specialist vest shop Ernest Whiteleys & Co which has supplied women with their unmentionables for nearly a century.
Shelley Tobin, Costume Curator for the National Trust, and Tracey Randall, Knickerbox Buyer & Designer, join Jenni in discussing the merits of the vest. Shelley Tobin 'Inside Out - A Brief History of Underwear' Published by National Trust. ISBN: 0707803705
