Recently, often a woman who came to the store with the firm intention to buy a fur coat, slowly walking past the rows with fur products, regrets that the look does not stop at anything specifically, nothing touches the soul, everything is somehow uninteresting - and leaves, disappointed.
This is due to the fact that the fur market in Russia is full of very average quality and design fur coats from goat, rabbit, muton, nutria, beaver, fox, and mink.
The times when the presence of a woman's fur coat (preferably from a mink, of course) was a matter of exclusive prestige and often an indication of the high status of her husband, has already passed. Now the ladies are not interested in the fact of owning a fur coat, but, first of all, in the product design, the beauty and style of the emerging image.
Status in our time determines the brand and type of fur.
Features
A feature of any designer fur coat is its non-standard - cut, style, color. The flight of thought of the fashion designer in this case is strictly limited by the texture of the material itself, because fur is not a single piece of fabric from which you can sew and stitch anything.
In addition, we must not forget that after all, a fur coat is, first and foremost, outerwear, designed not only to decorate, but also to warm its mistress. However, sometimes designers bring to our court such spectacular and unusual models that this question of heat does not even arise.
Modern fur coats have a wide variety of styles, the fur in them is combined in the most bizarre way with other furs, textiles, leather, intricately decorated - in a word, all possible ways are used to interest even the most sophisticated lady.

Models and styles of modern designer fur coats are simply amazing:

Russian designers
The disappointment in the assortment of numerous fur fairs and shops in Russia leads the woman to the logical idea that, probably, abroad, for example, in Greece, she will be able to buy her dream coat and even save on this. In fact, the same situation often develops that was described at the beginning of the article - lost illusions.
Meanwhile, a whole galaxy of talented fashion designers has appeared in Russia, sometimes known to the whole world, but not to the domestic consumer, in the fur coats of which a woman can finally feel that she is the one and only - a hooligan or a doll, a business woman or a rock star , a young peasant or queen.
