The gilet spent much of the last few decades in the wilderness, too often glimpsed on golf courses and in airport lounges, doing a job, asking for no love. Then the city boys and Sloane stars began to embrace it once again, turning it into a sort of emblem of business and entrepreneurship. That particular flavour of gilet was almost always technical - a layer that proved the wearer's unflappable temerity under pressure. Our answer is the Wiltshire, which takes the classic sleeveless shape and elevates it into something approaching smart tailoring: warmth and definition without the formality, or the shoulders, of a jacket. Our version is not for business, but rather, THE business.
