A waistcoat or a gilet has become a countryside staple in recent years. It’s the perfect in-between jacket for when it’s cool outside but not too cold. Many of our customers have them in multiple colours and materials as they’re so versatile. Throw one on over a jumper for a spring day dog walk or wear it over a collared shirt for a cosy night at the pub. Here are some waistcoat outfits for ladies for you to consider.
A fleece waistcoat is just like wearing a long-sleeved fleece jacket, apart from that it’s sleeveless! Our popular Huggate and Harpham styles both come in a waistcoat form with a moleskin leather trim and stretchy fleece fabric. It’s a smart-casual item or days at the country fair or walking through the village. A sherpa fleece waistcoat is a little more casual but is even more cosy. They feel like a hug from a teddy bear so wear yours around the house when it’s too warm for a dressing gown!
For a smarter look, a tweed waistcoat is the perfect option. Unless it’s fitted, it’s not a formal look but it’s definitely the dressiest style of the bunch. By adding a collared shirt underneath, you’ll be able to go from the office to a cosy night out! There are two different styles: one more like a blazer with buttons and one more like a jacket with a zipper. Depending on the occasion, both suit a collared shirt and smart shoes!
For a casual outfit, an insulated gilet is great for less dressy occasions, such as running errands in town or doing the school run. Our customers love them for everyday wear and you can go for a bright or a neutral shade, depending on your personal taste. There is a waistcoat outfit for any lady!
