Winter coat for women

When choosing a coat for winter, you should take into account what functions it is intended for - for leisurely walks, skiing, or just to get to the car standing under the windows.

Climatic living conditions also matter, winters are different: rainy, snowy, dry, frosty ...

The most popular model that any fashionista has in her wardrobe is the classic winter elegant single-breasted wool coat. Conservatives will also appreciate the sleek, double-breasted coat with oversized buttons and a turndown collar. Such a coat is usually not cheap, but it is worth the money spent, as it is durable and designed for more than one season.

If you are more into a sporty style, then look at the quilted coat. A style with a diagonal stitching will visually stretch the figure. If, among other things, you are a fan of winter sports, then a winter jacket coat is an ideal option for you.

If you want to look elegant and not freeze, then get a winter leather coat or sheepskin coat. There are leather coats of a wide variety of colors and styles. We advise you to choose a high-quality classic-cut coat, as it will not go out of fashion for a long time. A fur coat looks just as luxurious, it will always be warm and cozy in it.

Speaking of winter coat models, you cannot ignore the down jacket.Modern models have original designs and shapes. Natural down jackets are considered the warmest outer winter clothing. A down coat is quite unpretentious to care for, its top is often waterproof, so many people choose a down jacket as the main element of their winter wardrobe.

A winter parka coat with fur, completely covering the hips, is also loved by many of the fair sex. A women's parka can be with fur or down lining, it has many pockets and a reliable zipper. The accompanying hood is trimmed with fur, natural or faux.

Wide models of an oversized winter coat can be recognized by elongated or very wide sleeves, a voluminous collar and wide lapels. The upper of these garments is made of durable, moisture-resistant polyester with excellent shape retention.

Fashionable bologna raincoats help to look feminine and feel warm in the off-season and in winter. Such clothes are moisture resistant. Despite the fact that this style of outerwear is quite voluminous, it does not make the silhouette bulky, but allows you to clearly see the feminine curves.

Cocoon coat - voluminous at the waist, ideal for slender girls. Coat with a wrap, tied with a belt, it can be of any length. A winter A-line coat or swing coat is flared from the very top, masking any flaws. A coat with a cape (cape) also has a trapezoid shape, but instead of sleeves, it has slits.

The poncho coat is back on fashion catwalks. But for the winter cold, it is not quite suitable. You can wear a knitted poncho coat or just a coat in winter only with a slight minus. Although thick knits with original patterns look so feminine, it would be a shame to refuse them in winter.

In winter, women of fashion do not deprive of attention the styles that came to us from military uniforms. Pea jacket - straight-cut coat, double-breasted, with a turn-down collar. The overcoat is a classic, knee-length, with shoulder straps and leather buttons. Dufflock is a straight cut coat that resembles a sailor's uniform. The classic length is three quarters.

The fitted winter coat favorably emphasizes the feminine forms, makes the figure proportional and attractive. Fashionable coats this season are also presented with sleeveless products, although few would dare to wear them in severe cold weather. A hooded coat is suitable for those who do not value hats too much. Collars in winter coats are used in various types - wide, shawl, stand-up, asymmetrical, pipe collar ...

The length of a winter coat can be very different. The most practical is elongated, to the knee or slightly below. This length will suit women of any shape and age. A coat of this length perfectly warms and does not sweep with its hem the not always clean steps of public transport or car sills.

But a winter coat, long to the floor, when the hem reaches the ground, seems to be a very impractical purchase. But on the catwalk, such a product looks quite royal, resembling a royal robe.

Cropped coats in various styles are also popular. Short coat models allow girls to show off their slender legs, and they are also handy for those who are used to living in the rhythm of a big city or spend a lot of time driving a car.

Besides the traditional classic style, the winter coat can also be presented in a vintage style. The most striking representative of this style is a checkered winter coat, it looks very elegant. Both options will help maintain the now widespread business style.

A winter coat for every day of the casual style, which stands for "careless", must certainly be practical and comfortable - no heavy sheepskin coats and fur coats, no floor length and soiled colors. The military-style coat is distinguished by double-breasted cut, contrasting buttons, clear silhouette lines and "military" colors.

Chanel's style is a fitted silhouette, the absence of unnecessary details, the length is below the knee; a not too voluminous fur collar can complement the image. The Russian style began to conquer the world at the beginning of the 20th century thanks to French designers. These are long, fitted, lavishly trimmed with fur, embellished with gold embroidery and a printed floral pattern, models with large collars. This style is associated with luxury, aristocratic sophistication and exoticism.

Many young maidens do not like to put on bulky things in winter, but oversized winter coats, implying baggy styles, large pockets, wide sleeves and voluminous collars, are loved by young people around the world. Bright fur coats of "acid" colors - red, pink, lilac, lemon and emerald - are also in trend.

Miniature coat models in the style of the 60s are also designed for the youth audience. They are distinguished by a straight cut, mid-thigh length and the obligatory two rows of buttons, but the external simplicity is compensated by the bright colors of the product. Modern youth appreciate the combination of materials, when coat fabrics are diluted with inserts of colored fur, leather, suede or wool.

The main condition for choosing a winter coat for a lady in position is no holding down details. A trapezoidal A-line winter coat is suitable for expectant mothers. It is distinguished by a hem flared from the bust line and a high waist.

An oversized coat is also quite comfortable for a pregnant woman. For a not cold winter, a poncho coat is suitable. But the most successful choice is a multifunctional sling coat, which has an insert for a growing tummy. After giving birth, Mom can use this coat as a comfortable sling.

We advise young ladies in body to choose classic models of straight cut, flared and oversized style. The recommended straight coat length is slightly above the knee or to mid-calf. Another absolute favorite is the trapeze coat.

A comfortable oversized coat also looks harmonious on discordant figures. But it can visually add extra weight, so it is better to choose them without unnecessary details. But it is better for overweight ladies to stay away from a poncho coat, this style will make them dimensionless and obese.

An older lady has an undeniable trump card - she does not need to follow the catwalk canons. In retirement, you can create your own unique style. Mandatory requirements for coats for the elderly: good cut and quality materials.

Perfectly fitted coats made of soft expensive materials (cashmere, tweed, boucle, alpaca) will help you look luxurious in winter. Large prints should be avoided, preferring monotony or small patterns.

One of the most striking fashion trends of the current season is asymmetric styles. Moreover, asymmetry is presented not only in the cut of the winter coat itself, but also in its individual elements. It is great if the coat is decorated with fur details.

Models of this season are richly trimmed with fur in the area of ​​the collar, hood, sleeves and hem. The most popular types of fur are arctic fox, fox, silver fox, raccoon and mink. Arctic fox has a rich color palette. Fox fur looks good and dyes well.Mink fur has excellent warmth and moisture resistance.

Most of the fair sex love black coats for their ability to adjust the silhouette. A black coat looks luxurious and elegant in any circumstances. But on the black one can see settled dust, hairs and hair.

A red coat is attractive, but in winter it will look too pretentious. He should prefer the noble wine or cherry, which perfectly match other colors of clothing. Fashion stylists insist on bright colors for winter coats such as blue, yellow and green.

Combinations of several shades, contrasting prints and lush floral ornaments are welcome. For lovers of the classics, pastel colors are recommended.

It is better to replace it with turquoise or emerald. These shades suit almost all types of appearance and can be combined with many colors. A winter coat in light colors should not be purchased with an elongated cut. White or beige shades are quite easily soiled, and road slush can greatly spoil its appearance and your mood.

Fashionable winter coat prints imitating the skin of a leopard, tiger, zebra and other animals are back in trend. On the catwalks, there is a clear gravitation towards various ethnic and animal ("cat") prints. But if you choose a leopard-dyed fur trim, then the main color of the coat should be calm.

The cage is also relevant this season. In modern collections, there is a check and black and white, and Scottish in soothing colors. For an elongated winter coat, it is better to choose the largest possible pattern, and for a shortened style, a small cage. Moreover, designers manage to combine the classic checkered print with other ornaments - animal, floral, plant, geometric or abstract.

The most important requirement for materials for sewing a winter coat is their good thermal insulation. In addition, fabrics for outerwear must have high wear resistance, elasticity, and resistance to shrinkage and stretching.

Insulation for coats is divided into two types - natural and synthetic. Natural ones are fur, sheepskin, wool and down. Camel wool winter coats are suitable for harsh winters.
