Mouton coats

Mouton coats

Nowadays, muton fur coats are no less popular and loved by women than expensive valuable fur, and even successfully replace it. Mouton fur coats are not capricious in their care, they are not so expensive, while they serve for a long time, but they look stylish and elegant.

What is this fur?

Mouton is a natural sheepskin, which is processed using a special technology. The skins are refined by cutting the pile to a minimum length, sometimes less than a centimeter, and treated with formalin. This creates a plush, dense texture that is pleasant to touch. Sheepskin lends itself well to coloring, which allows you to create various variations that look very presentable.

Sheep skins are large in themselves, because fur coats from them have a minimum number of seams. This allows the fur coat to be more durable and wearable, to withstand bad weather. With a small budget, the search for a fur coat for everyday wear often comes down to just a muton... What can I say, if even very wealthy people buy this option for every day, leaving expensive furs "on the way out."

Combined options

Today in stores you can find hundreds of options for combined mouton fur coats. Fashion designers combine muton with other fur - fox (including silver fox), lynx, arctic fox, astrakhan fur, sable and mink... As a rule, the "body" of such a fur coat is mutton, and belts, edges of hoods, collars, cuffs on sleeves, hem or pockets are made of other fur.

There are also interesting models in combination with leather. - leather inserts can be on the sides or on the back, create a patchwork effect or be of the “patch” type. Mouton coats also come with textile inserts and even have knitted elements.

There are also fur coats made of artificial fur "under the muton". There are children's and adult models that are often painted in unusual colors - green or pink, like a leopard or a tiger.There are variants of very good quality, which cannot be distinguished from the natural one "by eye".

Fashion designers sew fur coats from lightweight, or, as it is also called, Australian muton. This is also a real sheep skin, made in a special delicate way. Such a product retains all the advantages of an ordinary muton, but acquires its own. Australian muton coats are very thin, lightweight and almost weightless.

Models

First of all, the models of muton fur coats differ in the type of cut.

It can be straight or flared, fitted, "trapezoid" or "balloon". Every woman knows the features of her figure and will choose the perfect option for herself. It should be understood that outerwear should not hinder movement, and when choosing, it is worth trying on the model and one size larger than you usually wear.

Large size mouton coats are sewn by many designers. Here the situation is exactly the same as with dresses. There are many models of interesting shades, with various nuances that distract attention from the volume of the figure. Stylists do not recommend overweight women to choose dark straight cut fur coats - they lose femininity, the silhouette becomes large and rough. Better to give preference to options with a belt.

Also, the models of fur coats differ in the cut of the collar. If you want to give up the headgear or, on the contrary, additionally insulate, note not hooded models... It can be either a modest continuation of a fur coat or a highlight. Hoods may be trimmed with other fur - with a mink or a polar fox, or have a "filling" of another material. There are models where the hood is made in a contrasting color, as a rule, some other elements on the fur coat are made in the same color - for example, pockets.

Models with a stand-up collar look interesting... If you want, then such a collar can be draped with a scarf, stole or snood; if you wish, you can flaunt a long chiseled neck. Models with a turn-down collar are also advantageous. - round, sharp or asymmetrical. There are many models with curious accessories: bright buttons, unusual fasteners and other details that give a special charm to the product.

Of course, mouton coats are sewn not only for young ladies. There are many male models - from cut "coats" to insulated jackets for motorists. As a rule, male models have a similar cut - straight or fitted, stand-up collar or turn-down, leather inserts.

Mouton coats for children are very popular.... The most comfortable ones are cut "trapezium", with a deep cozy hood. Often children's models are painted in bright colors, and in terms of their external qualities, such products are not inferior to down jackets. A muton coat for a girl of any age is not only a warm and practical outerwear, but also the first fur product. In it, a young lady will feel stylish and feminine, appreciate the benefits of fur.

Styles

Like any fur coat, the mutton one has various styles. A robe coat is considered a classic, fitted, most often with a belt. A flared fur coat or a “butterfly” version looks great, in which not only the hem, but also the sleeves are sewn wide.

For adherents of the classic style, mouton coats are suitable - straight or A-shaped. They differ in details, such as the cut of the collar. If such a fur coat is completely sewn from muton, a stand-up collar or a small rounded version will look good. Combinations with other fur are good - on the collar of both men's and women's fur coats, the arctic fox, silver fox, and fox look marvelous.

Length

The length of the fur coat is one of the main characteristics that decide a lot. When choosing a model, it is worth considering its length in advance.

Long fur coats from a floor-length muton look luxurious, but this is not the most practical option. In addition, wearing a skirt or dress with a hem that is much shorter than a fur coat is bad form.Accordingly, a long fur coat is suitable for an evening out or in case you easily and with pleasure wear maxi things every day.

The best option is a muton fur coat just below the knee. This model will warm you even in cold weather, will allow you to wear both trousers and a skirt, and will not restrict movement. Such a fur coat is closest to the everyday option, especially if you are walking. But for motorists, a shortened model below the back would be a good choice. It will not interfere with driving, will cover your back and lower back, will not get dirty and will not be remembered. Short fur coats are also good for going out.

Popular colors

Timeless and out of fashion, the classic colors are black, gray, chocolate and dark brown. White fur coats and models of light shades are always in fashion: beige, coffee with milk.

In the coming season, designers have paid a lot of attention to shades of gray. Graphite, steel, silver mouton coats have entered the collections of many designers. The warm range is fashionable: walnut and chestnut fur coats, red, golden shades are very popular.

It is worth highlighting the original colors. As we have already said, the muton is loyal to coloring, therefore, models in bright green or blue fur coats, dyed like a leopard and even a zebra, proudly walk on fashion catwalks. These models will suit young ladies who do not hesitate to be in the spotlight and whose wardrobe allows such bold outerwear. Note that even a sporty look will be appropriate with a bright fur coat. Against the background of white snow, active colors look very impressive, and given the fact that a mutton coat may not be very expensive, such a color scheme can be "one of" in the wardrobe, for the occasion or for the mood.

Fashion trends

In the coming season, at the height of fashion, custom fur coats from a muton - options "bolero" - super-short (very relevant in a wedding version), "jacket" - short in front and elongated in the back and "bell" - a narrow top and flared bottom as much as possible. Short jackets made of muton with voluminous hoods are also considered fashionable this winter.

Also, fashionistas are offered options with short sleeves. - and it can be both "three quarters", and a real extreme - fur coats, where the sleeve barely covers the shoulder. It is better to wear such models with long warm gloves above the elbow.

Another fresh trend is the flared hem with active finishing. In this case, the fur coat "scatters" right from the chest line. The hem can be trimmed with contrasting fur or wedge-shaped inserts in leather and suede.

Designers have shown a lot of outlandish models this season. Asymmetry, unusual cuts, a "balloon" or "tulip" cut, active decor, fur products without a V-neck are in vogue.

Manufacturers

Very worthy mouton fur coats are sewn in Russian factories. Russian designers have made a significant contribution to fashion trends that relate to products from muton, correlating excellent quality, luxurious appearance and affordable price.

An excellent example is the Kalyaev fur factory located in Moscow. Mouton coats are sewn here, aimed at a buyer of any age and income. Mouton and sheepskin coats are sewn by the Moscow factory "Russian Fur", the Pyatigorsk factories "Favorit", "Annushka", "Karolina", "Nika", "Edita" and many others.The Pyatigorsk fur company "Alef" specializes in the production of products from natural fur and is one of the largest Russian enterprises producing women's and men's clothing from refined sheepskin.

The history of the Elena Furs brand also began in Pyatigorsk, now the second largest fur factory of this company is located here. Sheepskin for fur coats produced here is purchased at the largest fur auctions in the world, so this brand's muton coats are able to satisfy the most demanding taste.

Care Tips

Mouton coat requires careful storage and proper care, like any other fur. It is important to properly arrange the fur coat in the closet - you don’t need to hang a wet product there, you don’t need to push the fur coat between other things, as the fur must breathe. For long-term storage, a muton fur coat should be sent in a special case for fur.

Experts advise keeping a light fur coat in a light case, dark - in the dark. The cover should be fabric, and the fur coat should hang on a hanger. Don't choose fragile plastic or wire. To prevent the product from losing its appearance, place it on wide massive wooden hangers.

Curious, but mouton coats are not interesting for moths. The fact is that before dressing, the sheepskin is treated with formalin in order to give the fur coat a uniform structure, thicken the hairs and make the fur immune to bad weather. Therefore, insects do not eat muton coats and do not need to be processed separately.

When the winter season is over, it is better to take the fur coat to a dry cleaner, where it will be refreshed and prepared for summer storage. For the next season, you will get a fresh and neat fur coat out of the closet. The same applies to old fur coats - they can be taken to the atelier so that the master would suggest whether it is realistic to revive the color, perhaps to update the lining. Before that, you should also go to the dry cleaner with a fur coat to remove dust and unpleasant odors that have accumulated over a long time.

How to choose?

When purchasing a fur coat, the main task is to evaluate the fur. It's worth starting with a visual inspection. Mouton is a sheared sheepskin, so you need to evaluate how flat the fur is, whether there are drops, dents, bald spots or worn out places. The next step is to smell the fur coat. Ideally, it should be odorless. If there is an outsider - paint, chemistry, then it is better to refuse the model.

When choosing a fur coat, you should have a white handkerchief with you - rub the muton with effort, if there are traces of paint on the shawl, this is a bad product, when staining it, the technologies were not followed. If the coat does not get dirty, you can evaluate the dressing. To do this, you need to squeeze the edge of the product, for example, at the hem. High-quality fur should straighten out instantly.

It is worth stroking the fur coat, even tugging at the hairs - all of them, without exception, should remain in their place, when stroking against the pile, the fur should go softly and pleasantly, not prick or break. Examine the seams as well - they should be even, slightly convex, and not have any traces of glue. If possible, rub the inside of the skin, if it is dry and makes squeaking sounds, then the skins have been overdried. Such a fur coat can dry out and crack very soon.

Do not forget to evaluate the quality of the insulation and lining. A high-quality muton fur coat warms up from five to ten seasons, and not least thanks to the insulation. If all of the above is normal, you can safely look at the chosen model seriously.

What to wear with?

A mouton coat is a practical and comfortable thing that can be worn with anything. It is easy to form an image both on the basis of a skirt or dress, and on the basis of trousers. Jeans look good with cropped fur coats, with midi options - a pencil skirt and a warm turtleneck.

Choosing a hat is also not difficult. It can be a knitted hat or snood, options with a fur pompom are good. You can tie a scarf or stole on your head, pick up a beret. Scarves, mittens and gloves are also matched to taste - these can be either neutral accessories or bright sets.

Any footwear goes well with a muton coat. In case of severe frosts, it can be boots or ugg boots, for every day - boots with flat or "tractor" soles, for the office - a heel, stiletto heel, wedge heel. At the same time, shoes can be classic black or brown, made of suede or leather, or more original - with fur inserts, unusual colors and styles.

It is easy for a muton to make friends with a lady's reticule, regardless of its shape and color. Shoulder bags, small clutches, imposing shoppers and even leather backpacks - everything will be appropriate with a muton coat, if the image is built harmoniously in the rest.

Images

A gorgeous snow-white model with a very stylish, rich cut. The style is slightly flared to the hem, which creates a feminine, even somewhat doll-like look. The hood is made in one piece with the top of the fur coat - you get a cozy and warm product in which the wind and frost will not touch even the delicate skin on the neck. The original trimming with transverse fur stripes makes the fur coat charming.

A classic model with a twist. The deep black color of the fur is diluted with details - a leather belt and a decorative fastener on the collar. The combination of a muton with a mink-cross turns this fur coat into an expensive and stylish product that looks elegant and does not even have a hint of budget.

Fashionable, but at the same time practical and warm option. A coffee-colored fur coat with a neat textured pattern is a great everyday option for those who do not like dark colors. The fur coat goes well with chocolate gloves and high boots with a steady heel. A hood with an edge of polar fox fur makes the fur coat elegant.
