Master The Art Of Layering With Gilets

MASTER THE ART OF LAYERING WITH GILETS

By the Robert Old Team

21st October 2022

For early autumn days when there is a chill beginning to develop in the air, look no further than a trusty gilet for all your trans-seasonal layering solutions. While perfect for autumn, the gilet is a piece so versatile that it has the capability to transcend seasons- and with such a variety of different finishes, this couldn’t be easier.

Outerwear has the capacity to transform the overall appearance of any outfit for a breadth of different occasions, enhancing a more neutral under-layer, or adding a mature and stylish finish to a bold ensemble. This autumn at Robert Old we have the modern gentlemen covered with a broad assortment of the latest gilets for 2022.

READY FOR THE OFFICE?

ROBERT OLD NAVY WOOL GILET

Crafted exclusively for Robert Old in Northern Italy, through scrupulously combining some of the most sophisticated fibres. Comprised of the finest wool, insulating properties have been designed into every stitch of this gilet. For when you need the extra versatility of a gilet on the way to the office, this piece pairs perfectly with classic office attire. We have combined it with a Robert Old Italian-made Wool & Cashmere shirt, Robert Old chinos, business approved Santoni sneakers and tipped it off with a Stetson hat.
