I think the waistcoat will work just fine once it's tailored properly. It will work because it is satin. I agree that if you can find the same buttons in a smaller size that would be best but I wouldn't worry too much about it.

I really does seem counter-intuitive doesn't it? Now the photo doesn't show your socks to be as bright white as I have seen but it could just be the photo. The off-white don't stand out and so they are more subtle than the pure white socks. Also the pure white can evoke memories of Jr. High gym class, and no one wants that.
