Women’s Gilet

Outer material: 100% Pure Wool (Skye Weavers Tweed)
Lining: 100% Cotton

Versatile. Timeless. Made for comfort.

This women’s gilet – also known as a vest (US) or bodywarmer (UK/EU) – is the perfect layer for year-round wear. Whether over a T-shirt or a cosy jumper (sweater), it adds warmth without the bulk.

Exclusively designed by Skye Weavers, it features a semi-fitted shape that’s flattering yet comfortable. The outer fabric is our Deep Sea Tweed, woven on pedal-powered looms on the Isle of Skye using local wool. Each gilet is sewn by us here on Skye, with care and attention to every detail. It’s fully lined with breathable cotton and finished with soft cotton moleskin on the collar and pockets for extra comfort.

The model is 178cm (5’10”) tall, and wearing a size XS. The gilet is also pictured on a mannequin, and on a second model (161cm / 5’3″), wearing size XS, showing torso only.

Choosing Your Size

Available in six sizes. Use our size chart to find your best fit. If you’re in between sizes, we recommend opting for the smaller one as the sizing is generous. If it’s not quite right, our returns policy makes exchanges easy.

How to Measure

Put on what you’d typically wear under the gilet, then take your measurements using a soft tape measure, following the guidelines below.

• Bust: Around the fullest part
• Waist: At your natural waist (narrowest part)
• Hips: Around the widest part of your hips or bottom
