A coat is an indispensable thing for the coming autumn. It can be not only warm, but also stylish, like the trend of this season - a cashmere coat with a fur collar.
Features and benefits of cashmere
Cashmere is a wool or semi-woolen fabric made from the undercoat of a mountain goat. Due to the complexity of processing and extraction, since it takes down about fifteen goats on one coat, clothes made of this material are quite expensive. Due to the thinness of the hair, the fabric is light, as is the product made of it. At the same time, the coat remains warm, and this is the most important thing for outerwear.
Most often, coats from a combination of cashmere and wool are found. They also use substitutes that feel very similar to cashmere. To insulate a cashmere coat, use fleece or fur lining, so that it can be worn to sub-zero temperatures.
Cashmere is a natural and pleasant material that does not cause irritation. It not only saves heat, but also protects from winds and moisture. However, he is picky about leaving, so if you do not follow the rules, you can easily spoil such a valuable thing. To clean a cashmere coat, it is best to go dry cleaning for help.
With proper care, a cashmere coat can retain its original luxurious appearance for a long time and not lose color.
Styles
The fur collar does not limit the traditional coat models in any way, since it harmoniously looks with cashmere itself and is the main trend of this fall. This element looks best on simple clothes without a lot of decor.
The most common model is the classic one. Strict lines, fitted style, length to the knee or maxi.The fur collar is missing on things with a hood, but he himself can be upholstered in fur trim around the edge. Trench coats and coat jackets are no less often decorated with a soft collar. Fur elements and oversized models are not alien.
Some models of capes and cape coats, as well as coat without sleeves, were not without fur trim, but often the fur from the collar immediately spreads to the lapels, shoulders and sleeves. A coat with a smell looks especially luxurious, since the collar on them is most often large and goes almost to the waist.
As for the collar itself, then there are possible options. It can be small and neat with a short fur or, conversely, lush so that you can hide your face. Not only natural fur is used, for example, sable, fox or arctic fox, but also artificial.
Length
Maxi-length and cropped coats are the main feature of this season. Of course, there are similar models from cashmere. However, the more common length will be more traditional, the middle - just below the hip or to the knee.
Color schemes
The color of the coat from natural cashmere is beige, gray, brown, black. Their shades are possible, brighter or, conversely, dim. Adding impurities allows you to get things in other colors: red, green, blue, white.
The color variety can be in the fur. It can be of natural color, and can be processed and decorated with a pattern, animalistic stripes and spots, which is so popular this season. In addition, the color processing of fur is trendy, so that you can meet especially original products with bright turquoise or lilac collars.
How to choose?
If the coat bottom is quite loose, then such a style will well hide the wide hips. If, on the contrary, they are narrow, it will be better if the bottom is voluminous, multi-layered or richly decorated. In general, the decor helps to emphasize what I would like to highlight, for example, on narrow shoulders, if you choose a wide fur collar. Those who have a good waist can safely buy a fitted coat, also with a belt. Cropped models combined with high-heeled shoes will make you appear taller.
When buying, you should pay attention to the material itself. If bumps and swellings are visible, then this is an occasion to examine in more detail a label listing the composition or make a choice in the direction of another coat. You should also check the lining, if we are talking about an insulated thing. A cashmere coat is an expensive pleasure, but it costs its money only if it is performed efficiently.
What to wear?
The fur collar is the main active decoration of the image, so do not strive to combine such a coat with bright distracting accessories and shoes.
For cropped models, skinny trousers and jeans, high boots, over the knee boots, high heel boots will do. Skirts and dresses are best combined with long products, while the edge of the skirt should not be visible from under the coat more than ten centimeters. For a knee-length coat, pencil skirts of the same length and jeans are suitable, and shoes are best chosen with heels.
It is worth relying on the overall style of the product. So, for example, an oversized coat of a more sporty look can be combined with wedge sneakers.
