The Gillet
Looking around online shops and the high street, there are clearly more gilet’s available this season compared to previous years. Gilet’s did come to my attention last Autumn / Winter but I didn’t end up grabbing one, which was a good thing, as this season they have clearly grown in popularity within men’s fashion, resulting in a bigger variety too choose from.
I believe the reason Gilet’s have become more fashionable this year is probably due to the popular trends we have seen come forward this autumn and winter, trends and styles such as the worker trend, preppy trend and the british heritage trend currently featured on ASOS. The gilet works well with the rugged worker trend as it is a great item to wear over the top of a checked lumberjack style shirt, with a pair of roughed up jeans. The Ralph Lauren Gilet I have featured in this post will probably work better with the preppy trend, due to it’s simple style and just being the brand Ralph Lauren, which is often associate with the uni / preppy scene.
