If the glove don't fit

Bracelet-length sleeves demand a longer glove line and at Claudio Ferrici in Dublin’s Westbury Mall, Paula Rowan is making a name for herself with a selection of stylish accessories.

Her elbow-length leather gloves are beautifully made using traditional techniques in fine lambskin, and come unlined or with cashmere or silk linings. Rowan also advises on glove fit, which means measuring the widest part of the hand (excluding the thumb) in inches, and then measuring from the tip of the index figure to the base of the palm. Whichever is the larger figure is your glove size. Women’s sizes go from six to eight in half sizes, men’s run in half sizes from seven to 12. www.glovesbypaularowan.ie
