semelhante a um colete

The term 'vest-like' is primarily used in fashion and clothing descriptions in both American English and Brazilian Portuguese. In the US, vests are often considered practical layering pieces, while in Brazil (colete) they may be more associated with formal or professional wear. The term bridges both cultures in describing modern, contemporary fashion designs that incorporate vest-inspired silhouettes.
