Fashion trends fall-winter
The main fashion trend of the winter collection of hats is ethnic style. Designers turn to different cultures and time periods, draw inspiration from the national clothes of mountain and steppe Asian peoples, use elements of the Russian style of the tsarist era.
Long-haired and smooth furs in natural colors are widely used here.
Another trendy trend has become dyeing fur in rich catchy colors, using faux fur and creating non-trivial models for youth urban images. The trend is bright, sometimes hypertrophied details - pompons, tails, long ears.
Color
Fashionable collections of fur hats offer a wide variety of colors from classic black to original vibrant colors. Natural colors, which look noble and luxurious, are very popular. Shades of beige and brown are in fashion: deep chocolate tones, coffee, fawn, cream.
Pay attention to the gradient color of the fur and pastel shades. White and blue fur hats are also a trend. The most extravagant requests will satisfy fur hats of bright olive color and rich wine shades. Animal hats are also relevant.
How to choose?
When choosing a hat, you need to pay attention to the quality of the fur, which is characterized by the density and uniformity of the pile. The hat model should be chosen from your own preferences in the style of clothing, taking into account the shape of the face, the overall color of appearance, height and overall complexion.
Chubby girls should pay attention to voluminous, symmetrical models of fur hats and abandon tight-fitting hats that cover the forehead. These caps perfectly emphasize this shape of the face. Hats with earflaps are not recommended.
Girls with a “heart” face shape need to abandon their long-fur hats.
The features of a square face shape will smooth out caps with earflaps made of smooth fur or combined with skin, but voluminous and tight-fitting models should be avoided. And volume models popular this season are suitable for tall girls, and for women of short stature, stylists recommend laconic models of small size.
How much is?
The cost of a fur hat depends on the fur of which it is made, as well as the model. The price range can be from 3 to 10 thousand rubles. Designer hats cost significantly more by another 5-7 thousand. The most budget option will be faux fur hats, which are in the price category up to 5 thousand rubles.
What to wear?
Fur hats can be worn with short fur coats and fur coats, but there is a danger of an “overloaded image”.That is why many stylists recommend combining fur hats with coats.
Long-haired and Russian-style hats look great with a winter drape coat or sheepskin coat.
And a fur hat with a visor is ideal for a leather coat. Sports lovers can make a set of fur earflaps and a down jacket in bright colors. The fur “snopik” will successfully fit into the image with a short jacket and jeans.
Beautiful images
“Ushanka hat” is perfect for a young girl when creating a bright and interesting image. So, for example, the autumn look will be extremely attractive, where the main decoration will be the fur “cap with ear flaps” combined with the use of suede.
A variant of the image where the “cap with ear flaps” will be completely trimmed with fur with a medium-length pile will also seem quite good. And additional pompons hanging down will make the image more playful and original.
An image with bright prints on a headdress will be no less beautiful. This, for example, may be a fur “hat-kubanka” made in animal colors. It will certainly become an adornment of any image and will give it some solemnity and elegance.
