LOOKS LIKE TWO PIECES.
HAPPILY, IT IS ONE.

Layering is all very well until you are standing in the bedroom at eight in the morning working out which shirt goes under which jumper. Vivienne saves you the bother entirely. You pull one thing on, the collar sits where a collar should, and you are ready for whatever the day has in mind. It is the sort of small saving you appreciate every single morning of the winter.

WHY THE VIVIENNE?

• The collar does the work: It sits softly at the neck rather than standing to attention, so you get the tidy look of a shirt underneath with none of the bunching at the cuffs. Warmer at the throat too, which matters more than people admit once the wind picks up.
  
  
• Cosy, but it keeps its shape: Relaxed through the body and gentle over the middle, without slumping by the afternoon. Comfortable in the way an old favourite is, only rather better turned out.
  
  
• Nothing to fidget with: No itch at the neck, no pulling at the hem, no adjusting every time you stand up. Put it on and you can forget about it until bedtime.
  
  
• Seven colours, and not a dull one among them: Red, Pink, Green, Light Green, Light Blue, Blue and Grey. The Grey and the Blue go with everything already hanging up, and the others are there for the mornings that need a lift.
  
  
• Honest sizing, S to 3XL: It runs true, so order your usual. Between two? Take the larger for a roomier fit. Each one is measured by hand, so allow a couple of centimetres either way.
