Full details
The Regatta Frankie Bodywarmer is a versatile, lightweight layering piece designed for women who need core warmth without the bulk of a full jacket. Perfect for outdoor enthusiasts, travelers, and those running daily errands, it offers excellent freedom of movement and thermal insulation. While its polyester construction is highly durable and efficient at trapping heat, please note that it is not windproof or waterproof, making it better suited as a mid-layer or for mild, dry weather conditions.

FAQs
Is the Regatta Frankie Bodywarmer waterproof?
No, this garment is made of insulating polyester and is not designed to be water-resistant or waterproof.
Can I wear this over a thick winter coat?
It is designed to be worn over base layers or thin shirts; wearing it over a bulky coat may feel restrictive.
What is the best way to clean the white fabric?
Machine wash at a cool temperature with similar colors and avoid optical brighteners to maintain the original shade.
Does it have pockets?
The Frankie design focuses on a streamlined silhouette for layering, keeping the aesthetic clean and minimal.
Is this suitable for high-intensity exercise?
It is great for walking or light activities, but for very high-intensity exercise, the material provides significant warmth that might lead to overheating.
Troubleshooting
Fabric looks slightly flattened after washing
Once dry, shake the garment gently or tumble dry on a very low/cool setting for a few minutes to restore its loft.
Stubborn stains on the white fabric
Use a specialized fabric stain remover on the affected area before the next machine wash; ensure you spot-test an inconspicuous area first.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To keep your bodywarmer in top condition, follow these care instructions. Machine wash the garment on a gentle cycle using mild detergent. Avoid using harsh bleaching agents, as this may compromise the fabric. Air dry whenever possible to preserve the structure of the polyester fibers. Regarding compatibility, the Frankie Bodywarmer works best when worn as a mid-layer beneath a shell jacket or as an outer layer during crisp, dry autumnal days. Ensure you check the sizing guide to confirm the UK 16 fits correctly over your intended base layers.
