Lovely Gilet

Description

There’s a quiet luxury in a handknitted silk lambswool gilet that feels as good as it looks. Slip this one over a blouse or a knit dress and instantly add warmth and texture without weighing you down. It moves easily with you, soft against the skin, elegant without trying too hard.

Every gilet is knitted by hand, one stitch at a time, so no two ever come out quite the same. Also, the blend of bourette silk and fine lambswool gives this piece a subtle sheen and a gentle nubby texture, wonderfully soft against the skin, and just structured enough to hold its shape. Once this one sells, there will not be another exactly like it.

Wear it layered over a fitted knit top for everyday warmth, or over a slip dress for something a little more polished. Either way, this gilet asks for nothing extra, just add it and go. In fact, it also makes a thoughtful gift for anyone who loves cozy, considered pieces.

That feeling has a reason. This handknitted silk lambswool gilet combines a 50/50 blend of bourette silk and fine lambswool. We chose these two fibres because they round each other out: silk for its soft shine, wool for warmth and body. As a result, together they create a fabric that is lightweight yet substantial, casual yet quietly elegant.
