Description
A tailored gilet with linen for summer
Awama made this tailored gilet with linen for warm days: a V-neck, a row of buttons, a lining and a front that ends in two points.
The fabric is a blend of 60% viscose, 25% cotton and 15% linen. It comes in taupe, black and cream, in sizes S to XL.

The piece: models 225290 to 225292 by Awama
The maker calls it a linen vest with a fitted lining and a tailored, feminine cut, meant for summer outfits. It has a V-shaped neckline and closes with buttons.
A note on the word linen. The composition table says 15% linen, with viscose as the main fibre. So we call it a gilet with linen, and you should expect a soft blend with a linen look more than a crisp pure linen.
The model wears it with matching shorts and trousers. Those are separate products.
Who it's for
For you if you want one summer piece that can be a top at a wedding and a layer over a T-shirt on Monday.
The cut is tailored without being tight: size M measures 94 cm at the chest and 88 cm at the waist.
Closer look: what the maker's data and the photos show
- V-shaped neckline and button closure (maker's data)
- Lined (maker's data)
- Tailored cut (maker's data)
- Front hem with two points; shorter back with a small notch (photos)
- Light buttons with a wood-like look (photos)
- A welt pocket line on each front panel (photos)
We cannot tell from the photos whether the pockets open, and the maker does not mention them. Treat them as decoration.
Fabric and feel: viscose, cotton and linen
The composition is 60% viscose, 25% cotton and 15% linen. The maker says the fabric gives breathability and comfort.
In the photos the cream version shows the small irregular threads you know from linen. The viscose makes the cloth softer and lets it hang. The gilet is lined; the maker does not say what the lining is made of.
Fit and silhouette: tailored, to the waist
The table lists a chest of 90 cm in S, 94 cm in M, 98 cm in L and 102 cm in XL, with a waist of 84, 88, 92 and 96 cm.
For the length the maker gives two figures per size, for example 54/50 in M. We read the first as the front, measured to the points, and the second as the back. Either way this is a short gilet that ends around the waistband of high-waisted trousers.
Size chart (cm)

| L | 55/51 | 98 | 92 |
| XL | 56/52 | 102 | 96 |
Source: the maker's size table, the same for all three colours. It gives two lengths without labels; since the front ends in points and the back is shorter in the photos, we read them as front and back.
Styling: a set, or a break in colour
The photos show it tone on tone, with shorts or wide trousers in the same colour. That gives you the look of a summer suit.
It also works as a contrast. Try the cream gilet with dark jeans, or the black one over a white T-shirt with a long skirt. The light buttons stand out on the black, so keep other details simple there.
Occasions
The maker names everyday wear and more elegant outfits in summer. We think of the office in July, a garden party and dinner on holiday.
The cream and the taupe suit daytime events. The black one moves into the evening.
Care: follow the label
The maker's data has no care instructions, so follow the label sewn into the gilet.
Blends with viscose and linen tend to crease and can shrink in heat. Until you have read the label, wash cool and press it while it is still slightly damp.
The wow detail: the buttons
The buttons are light, with a wood-like look. On the cream gilet they blend in. On the black one they become the feature, a row of pale dots down the front. Same gilet, two different characters.
