Women's Gilets & Waistcoats

Discover HUG’s edit of women’s gilets and waistcoats, considered layers that add warmth, texture and personality without covering up your outfit. Explore padded and quilted gilets, playful knitted waistcoats and easy cotton layers from brands including Mademoiselle YéYé, Danefæ København, Sugarhill Brighton and TBCo.

Wear one over a favourite tee, blouse or dress for an effortless extra layer, thoughtfully chosen by HUG in Woodbridge, Suffolk.

A gilet or waistcoat is an easy way to change the feel of an outfit. Try a quilted or padded layer over a long-sleeved top when the weather turns, or add a knitted waistcoat to a simple shirt or dress for colour and texture. Sleeveless shapes make layering feel effortless through the changing seasons.

Our women’s gilets and waistcoats bring together different fabrics, shapes and details, from organic-cotton corduroy and cotton knits to quilted designs and bold patterned knitwear. Check each piece for its own materials and fit, then choose the one that works with the clothes you already love.
