The luxury of a silver fox fur coat lies in only one name, because this fox is not in vain called silver. The unique natural color and quality of the fur are at the peak of fashion, and therefore are desirable for all connoisseurs of natural products.
Features
Silver fox quickly took a leading position and became the object of dreams of many women. Oddly enough, the story of silver fox fur coats began with Hollywood and Marlene Dietrich, who appeared in one such on the screen. Previously, this material was used for small accessories, for example, boas, couplings.
The first and most characteristic feature of this fur is its incomparable color, a three-color degrade. Fur coats from silver fox are not stained. The second is the density, strength and splendor of the pile.
The product from this fox is resistant to low temperatures, but not weatherproof. Fur with thick undercoat is vulnerable to moisture, and therefore it is worth avoiding drizzling rain and wet snow. The best weather for such a fur coat is cold and dry. In addition, the silver fox has an interesting feature - the lower the temperature, the more fluffy it looks. Dangerous for whimsical fur and the sun, because it can burn out.
The fur coat of black fox has high wear resistance, so a quality thing with proper care can last no less than ten years. The main thing to remember is that after falling under wet snow, which undoubtedly happens in our climatic conditions, it is impossible to dry the fur coat by the battery. This fur accepts only natural drying.
Models
The silver fox is fluffy and voluminous, so models of fur coats make it quite simple, concise. In addition, most often this is the length of the midi or shortened, as the maxi product is not only heavy in weight, but also in appearance, it deprives the image of feminine fragility.
Among others, the most common models that do not go out of fashion and constantly remain relevant can be distinguished. To begin with, this is a short A-silhouette model to the middle of the hips, long sleeves and a large turn-down collar. A medium-length fur coat with a straight silhouette, long sleeves and a hood is another worthy investment. Fur coats without a collar and a hood, with a round neck, and short products with ¾ sleeves and a belt, most often leather or suede, are also popular. It should be said that most of the Russian women use fur coats with a hood, which is so convenient for our cold climate.
Furs from silver fox, despite the general trend of minimalism, can be presented with a different combination of elements (turn-down collars or stand-up collars, neck shape, shape and length of sleeves, presence of a pocket and belts, hood, type of fasteners). It is also important how the skins are laid out, for example, vertically or horizontally (this technology is called transverse).
Not every fur coat model will be convenient for driving a car. The short length is most optimal so that the hem does not interfere when you press the pedals. Most of these coats have a short sleeve to the elbow, so they are worn with long gloves. In addition, it is important that the volume of the product itself does not interfere. A neat stand-up collar and the presence of a belt help to create a neat silhouette that does not hurt to focus on the road.
A silver fox fur coat is completely self-sufficient, it can not be combined with other fur without creating disharmony. But it is possible to use leather inserts, suede. First of all, we are talking about a method of sewing when repeating knitted or suede strips are sewn between the strips of fur. But sometimes inserts are used as decorative elements. For example, a fur coat may have full leather sleeves or a leather corset belt.
In addition, silver fox fur can be used as decoration on products made of another material, for example, from sheared or plucked beaver, goat, mouton, Arctic fox. Most often, silver fox is used as cuffs on the sleeves or a large collar, which often goes into the hood.
The silver fox is chic due to its fluffy long fur, however, the weight of the fur coat is appropriate. In order to make the product easier and cheaper, several methods are used, for example, special sewing technology or, much less often, fur cutting. Sheared fox fur is not so voluminous, so the lightweight model is well suited for warmer days or as outerwear for driving a car.
Features of tailoring
- Roshiv - a technology that allows you to create an intricate cut or lighten the weight of the product, as well as save valuable material. In this type of sewing between the strips of fur, inserts from another material are used (leather, knitwear, suede). In this case, the fur can be used both whole and previously cut into pieces. Due to the long fur of the silver fox in a high-quality fur coat, these inserts are not visible, unless this is the intentional move of the fashion designer.
The advantages of this technology are the low weight of the fur coat and volume, lower cost, unusual design, the ability to wear in a warmer climate, and among the minuses are low wear resistance, the need for gentle cleaning, and the unexpected visibility of the inserts will cheapen the overall look.
- Dissolution is a technology that allows you to extend the skin without stretching (and, as a result, thinning and spoilage) of the mezra and create unusual, for example, flared products with the laying of material along. The essence of this method is that the skin is cut into thin strips, which are then sewn together. The seams of such a fur coat are located "herringbone".
Among the advantages of dissolution can be called freedom in the design of non-classical models.Such a product sits well on the figure, visually the fur coat seems easy, flying, it has beautiful folds. But in the minuses, the increased price due to additional stages of tailoring and the likelihood of running into a low-quality thing, numerous seams on which will soon begin to diverge. Sometimes on such fur coats at the joints, bald spots may appear due to the thinned pile. Unusual design can go out of fashion in the next season.
- Recently, knitted fur coats made in an unusual way have become popular. Previously, a thread is created from the skin, in this case, silver fox, using special technologies. After this, the process of weaving the web begins, and at the present time there are many types of knitting. This coat is thin, her fur is short, but soft, silky. A knitted product is lighter, so it can be worn in dry weather, even in autumn or spring.
- A variant of a fur coat with a knitted base (with a high content of wool in the composition), on which silver fox fur is laid out, is possible. When buying such a fur coat it is impossible to check the skins, which means it is possible to buy a bad product that will not last long.
Color
A feature of a silver fox fur coat is that it is not stained due to the self-sufficient original skin color. The fox’s hair is three-colored: gray at the root, white in the middle and black at the tip. Of course, from one individual to another, the length of the pile and the degree of presence of a particular color can vary. To achieve a uniform canvas coat, you have to deal with careful selection.
Fur coats vary in shade. There are very dark items with a predominance of black colors, or light, one might say silver or light gray, on which black are only the very edges of the villi.
You can talk about the color difference between a fur coat and a silver fox when combined with another fur, for example, a beaver, a goat. Most often, in combination with silver fox, a material that is color-treated is used. Therefore, you can find white, cream, brown or even colorful (blue, red) fur coats with collars or cuffs from silver fox.
How much is?
Silver fox is more expensive than not only the red fox, but also many other materials, so you should not rely on small prices. The average cost of fur coats varies from seventy to one hundred and twenty thousand. The price depends on the length and model of the product, manufacturer and sewing method. For example, a fur coat sewn using “embroidered” technology will cost less than a whole fur product. It makes sense to wait for sales in fur salons, as some models do not lose their trends, but at the same time they will cost a little cheaper than in season.
How to distinguish from a fake?
They might try to pass a fox for a silver fox. To distinguish the necessary fur from a fake, check the hair. If it is three-colored, then in front of you is a fur coat from a real silver fox. But the lysops skin is two-tone.
In order not to stumble upon the steppe fox, you should pay attention to the texture of the hairs, since if it is greasy, then most likely the fur was dyed. Pay attention to the weight of the product, since the silver fox is rather heavy, that is, a weightless coat is most likely a fake or poorly made (the meat was stretched, which means it was thinned).
Reviews

In addition, the longer the fur, the more active the cushions can climb, which for some spoils the impression of a purchase.
