Picture needed.
A picture is needed to explain the distinction between a gilet and a tabard or waistcoat.

Erm: How is the picture that has been added a Gillet? it is captioned a Gillet, and yet, is the same picture from Waistcoat? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Waistcoat Which is which? — Preceding unsigned comment added by Mchicago (talk • contribs) 13:38, 18 July 2011 (UTC)

Gilet is the French word for waistcoat, and that is why the French version of Wikipedia has it. However, in the English language "gilet" is not used to describe a waistcoat. It's used for the earlier, proto-waistcoats prior to the 20th century. I suggest using the picture of the white corded French waistcoat.--142.161.85.239 (talk) 22:36, 17 April 2013 (UTC)

Poor link.
The hyperlink on the words "Body warmer" redirects you to the page you are already on. I suggest it is removed. 86.133.188.215 (talk) 22:53, 8 March 2013 (UTC)
