so what do we think of ...

furry gilets ?

I don't know what we think but I think they are vile articles.

I think they look ok on some people, I'd feel ridiculous. They're quite popular around here but then I'm in the homeland of towie.

I think they're chavtastic

Personally they look ridiculous on me - I'm busty and look yeti like in one. But a very petite friend looks amazing in hers ..

went out of style in 1997...

Hideous. Also only ever seem to be matched with over bleached hair. Not something I would have ever considered even when remotely in fashion, a good few years ago.

seems to be quite a few around
also those faux fur snood / scarf things too

I think they're perfect if you want to look like a womble.

Nb of course, someone like E. McPherson could pull it off, but H. McWitch could not.
