When you think of Gilets, you probably think of the smart looking body
warmers of yesteryear, but as this style of sleeveless
jacket is so versatile it has stayed popular through many decades, and now
holds an important place in the wardrobes of many men and women in the modern
day world. A Gilet resembles a blouse or waistcoat, as it is cut without any
sleeves, and so is known as a sleeveless vest of jacket sometimes. Gilets may
be designed to be waist or knee length, and are usually designed with straight
sides rather than being form fitting. Originally they were beautifully
embroidered garments, and were worn by both men and women.
A sheepskin
gilet is a valuable addition to any woman’s wardrobe as it offers both
warmth to the body and also provides a really stylish appearance. The gilets
that we wear today, are usually treated as an extra layer to warm the body, and
they can be made from cloth, fake fur or even knitted material. Sometimes,
gilets are even integrated into waterproof jackets for when the owner goes
hiking, and they can be zipped in and out as needed. Many gilet jackets are
used for sporting activities such as cycling, archery and shooting, although
these sporty gilets tend to be made from a windproof material with mesh at the
back. However, more often than not a Gilet worn for shooting is made from
rugged leather to emphasise the character of the sport.
Another winter jacket which is greatly in vogue is the Ladies
sheepskin jacket. They are lighter
and softer than other jackets, but can generate a tremendous amount of warmth
as they have natural insulating characteristics. For most, the gilet may seem
like a pointless winter accessory as although it covers the upper body, it
doesn't have any sleeves. However, not only will a gilet look elegant and
hugely improve the beauty of the outfit the lady is wearing, but it is also
ideal for wearing in the fluctuating temperatures that we tend to experience
more and more these days. The gilet can
easily be put on when the weather is slightly cooler, and can then be removed
again as the weather heats up.
Sheepskin jackets for ladies are costly, but they are worth their
weight in golf as if looked after carefully they will last for several decades.
With a proper maintenance regime, sheepskin can last for years, and will always
look as good as new whenever you wear it. Judicious use and a little light
brushing every so often will keep your sheepskin jacket in tip top condition.
