A plum borg gilet — the soft, teddy-textured kind that goes over everything and comes off at the door. Warm without the bulk of a coat, which makes it the layer that actually gets worn.

From Claude & Co's Amos range, cut for movement and sized from one to seven years.

• Soft borg fleece in a deep plum
• Sleeveless, easy over jumpers and long sleeves
• Sizes 1–2 to 6–7 years
