Focused Upper-Torso Support with an Open-Bust Fit
This sleeveless post-surgery support vest combines broad shoulder and upper-back coverage with an open-bust front. Two separate hook zones help the neckline and underbust band adjust independently, while the open center lets you pair the vest with your preferred bra.
Best for: provider-approved recovery-stage wear that calls for upper-torso coverage without a built-in bra or long sleeves.
Coverage & Construction
- Bust: open-bust design; a bra is not included.
- Front: a small neckline hook and a wider underbust hook panel shown in the gallery.
- Shoulders: wide sleeveless panels distribute coverage across the upper torso.
- Back: smooth upper-back coverage with the support-channel details visible on the Skin Color style.
- Hem: close underbust band intended to lie flat when correctly sized.
Fit & Size Guide
Measure around the fullest part of your upper bust and directly under the bust without pulling the tape tight. Compare both measurements with the chart. If the two measurements suggest different sizes, swelling is expected, or you are between sizes, follow your care provider’s fit guidance.

|---|---|---|
| S | 81–87 cm / 31.9–34.3 in | 68–73 cm / 26.8–28.7 in |

How to Put It On
- Open both front hook sections before dressing.
- Place each arm through the shoulder openings and settle the back panel flat.
- Fasten the underbust hooks evenly, using a row that feels supportive without painful pressure.
- Close the neckline hook, then check the armholes, side-bust edges and hem for pinching or folding.
Recovery Use & Honest Boundaries
This vest is intended for recovery-stage support when approved by your healthcare provider. It does not replace professional care or guidance. The correct start time, support level and wear duration depend on your procedure, incision location and individual recovery plan.
Choose another style if: your plan requires long sleeves, abdominal or lower-body coverage, a built-in bra, or a closure that avoids the front of the upper torso.
Care Instructions
- Fasten both hook sections before washing.
- Hand wash in cold water, or use a gentle cycle inside a laundry bag.
- Air dry away from direct heat.
- Do not bleach, iron or tumble dry.

Frequently Asked Questions
What is this open-bust recovery vest best for?
It is designed for recovery-stage torso support with an open-bust shape and front-hook closure when that style matches your care plan.
What does the open-bust design do?
The bust area is left open so bra choice and bust coverage can be handled separately from the vest.
How should this recovery vest fit?
It should feel close and supportive without painful pressure, restricted breathing, numbness, or sharp digging.
When should I start wearing it after a procedure?
Start time varies by procedure and recovery plan, so follow the timing and wear guidance given by your care provider.
Can I wear my own bra with it?
The open-bust shape is intended to leave bra choice separate, as long as the combination is comfortable and compatible with your recovery plan.
How do I choose the right size?
Use the product size chart and your current measurements. If swelling or recovery changes your measurements, prioritize the fit guidance from your care team.
How should I care for the vest?
Follow the care instructions on the garment label and avoid washing or drying methods that could damage the fabric or hook closure.
When should I choose a different recovery style?
