This is a cute fashion accessory for sure. It really does look like fur. Alice looks all warm and toasty in it too.

Aww! I have to admit that I did not know what a gilet was so I googled it. I always learn something new every day and this was it. When I see this faux fur gilet I think of vikings or something similiar. This is just too adorable.

I had never heard of a gilet. I had to look it up. It is a padded vest. The term "gilet" does make it sound really special. I love vests or gilets like this. It adds a nice extra layer. This will be easy to make and I know one special little girl who will love. It will be easy to convert to adult size as well. Thank you.

Reading above, it shows that you can make this faux furry eyelash yarn one button vest in a full range of sizes, all the way up to adult...I do not, however, find that on the actual pattern page -( I was hoping to make this for myself for the winter. I wear a lot of solid colored tunics and something like this would have been great to layer over it.
