When buying clothes for a girl, it is imperative to consider her opinion. Of course, the most important thing for a child is the appearance of the product. But winter clothes, first of all, should be practical. Therefore, it is necessary to find such a thing that both mom and daughter would like. And how best to do this, read below.
Fashion models
Choosing the style of winter clothes you need to be guided by the age of the child. Models differ in appearance and functionality. For the smallest, a jumpsuit is an ideal option. It is an insulated envelope equipped with sleeves and a hood. This model is convenient to use. One-piece jumpsuit is put on without effort and does not limit freedom of movement. In it, the child can sleep in the fresh air and it will be warm.
For children who are just learning to walk, a transformer jumpsuit is perfect. This style has a special cut and a fastener system that allows you to make a comfortable suit out of an envelope.
For more independent kids, there are models that consist of a warm jacket and pants. This season, manufacturers have tried to make them as comfortable as possible. Long pants cover the whole shoe. They have comfortable coquette on the chest and back, as well as straps that can be adjusted as needed.
It looks interesting styles that have drawstrings for adjusting the fit and size, as well as detachable parts.
For babies, these are booties, mittens or a hood.
For older girls, costumes can be decorated with natural or faux fur.
Children's fashion has its own trends and directions. First of all, these are modern high-tech materials and colors. The colors of the costumes for girls are neutral, but bright. The trend of this season is colorful and conspicuous drawings, as well as miniature prints. Butterflies, flowers, peas, a cage - there is plenty to choose from. It really looks pretty and stylish.
Costumes in the "play style" have become the last peep of children's fashion. They are distinguished by cheerful cute ears, eyes, bows. Young fashionistas wear such clothes with great pleasure.
Material
Let's talk about the features of the most popular fabrics used to create children's winter outerwear.
Top material and coating
- Cordura Matte, rigid fabric that resists friction. It is durable and durable. It has excellent dirt and water repellent qualities.
- Nylon. Excellent windproof and, at the same time, breathable material. It keeps its shape perfectly. It does not require special care.
- HEMI TEC. This material has been developed using the latest technology. It is absolutely waterproof. Resistant to dirt and wind, allows moisture to pass from inside to outside, while maintaining normal body temperature.
- Lavsan. It has the same advantages as nylon. The only difference is that the lavsan is not so durable.
- Active Windproof fabric impregnated with a special substance. Not a bad option, though water-repellent properties are average.
- Bologna. Material that perfectly protects against water and dirt, but does not allow air to pass through. For this reason, it is not too hygienic. For active children, it is not suitable. In addition, you can wear it only at a temperature not lower than minus five degrees.
Insulation
- Synthetic
- Synthetic winterizer. The cheapest type. However, it is known for its low quality. It rolls quickly, practically does not retain heat. In cold weather, this suit is not worth buying.
- Thinsulate Almost perfect insulation for today. It is lightweight, breathable, in terms of heat-saving qualities comparable to natural fluff, but does not have its drawbacks. Allowable temperature up to minus thirty degrees. It has a fairly high price.
- Hollofiber. It consists of hollow fibers, due to which it perfectly removes moisture outside and retains heat inside. This is the most popular insulation, because it ideally correlates cost and quality. Products on holofiber can be worn at temperatures up to minus twenty-five degrees.
- Natural
- Fluff. There are several types of it. The highest quality is considered to be eiderdown, followed by goose down. But duck is practically not used. Fluff keeps heat well, although it has a significant drawback. It often causes allergic reactions. In addition, it is not cheap.
- Sheepskin. It does not cause allergies. It has excellent heat-saving properties, known for its durability. However, this type is also not without drawbacks. Things based on it are too heavy, which makes the child uncomfortable to move in it.
The most commonly used lining is cotton, nylon or fleece.
I would also like to say about one of the most modern and effective technologies for improving winter clothing. These are fabrics with a membrane film. They have many advantages. The membrane releases sweat well. That is, the child can walk, play, run without risk of sweating. At the same time, the membrane does not allow moisture to pass outside under the outer clothing.
Membrane quality and water resistance are expressed in numbers. Without going into details, we can say this: “The higher the number, the higher the quality of the membrane and the more reliable the child will be protected.
