Hathor is a versatile and timeless sleeveless vest, offering 18 possible versions to suit every need and style. With a choice of three necklines (rounded, stand-up collar or hood), three pocket styles (patch, welt or none), and two closure methods (press studs or zip), this fully lined gilet is designed to adapt to any occasion.

Ideal for layering, Hathor works beautifully as a mid-season jacket, a cosy underlayer in cold weather, or a casual extra layer for cool summer evenings. Depending on your fabric choice, it’s equally at home in the city, on countryside strolls, or keeping you warm during outdoor activities. A wardrobe staple for all seasons.

Important to Know: I AM Patterns are designed to be traced off. The different pieces overlap with each other so you will need to trace the pattern on paper. This means that you will be able to make multiple sizes of the garment and adjust the pattern as you trace it if necessary. For this you could use tracing paper, baking parchment, thin wrapping paper; or we can supply you with some spot and cross pattern paper.

Sizes: EU 36 to 46. Please refer to the FIND YOUR SIZE tab for detailed information.
