In evening fashion, an excellent replacement for a fur vest was found for those girls who, without prejudice to sophistication, prefer elegance.

An atypical trend in the form of an evening gown to the floor and a discreet elegant jacket is observed in many collections of famous designers.

White jacket

Two options are popular:

  • classic jacket, slightly elongated with folding lapels;
  • short jacket with voluminous sleeves due to the fit on the shoulder.

They stand out a little from the general gamut, however, the evening outfit becomes much more interesting.

If the jacket matching the dress allows the girl to look restrained in the official part and bright as soon as he is removed, then mixing styles is suitable for informal parties.

Selection rules

  1. Before you go to the store, think carefully about what you would like to purchase. From a wide assortment, it’s not a sin to get confused and buy not at all what will fit the dress you have chosen. And what's next? To choose a new dress for a wrap?
  2. The choice of capes is largely determined by weather conditions and the nature of the event. For the celebration, which is held in the cold season, you can choose capes made of fur or fluff. But if the weather is warm or you are going to a country with a warm climate, then the wraps should be of light fabric or lace.
  3. The combination of styles and styles between the dress and the wrap should be observed at the highest level. Do not forget about the main responsibility that rests with the cape - to emphasize the elegance of the image, and not to become its main element.
  4. The issue of price is often fundamental, determining the choice of women. If financial opportunities allow you to purchase natural furs, then you need to buy them. Such an element of the wardrobe will be worn for a long time and will always remain in fashion. With not so wide possibilities it is worth paying attention to faux fur or noble fabrics. Designers began to create such spectacular wraps that even at a low cost they look very presentable.
Embroidered Bolero

Lace capes look very feminine and add notes of tenderness and fragility to the image.

Examples of using wraps

The use of a wide cape with a wide skirt is allowed only for women of high stature. With small growth, this combination of styles will only press the figure to the ground.

And even if the body shapes are magnificent, then the similarity with the bun will be noted by each guest of the gala evening. Fur capes or boas will not add harmony to the full figure. Only mink refers to exceptions, since it suits almost everyone and always.

If the dress has the form of a case, then laconic capes will look good with it. They can be egg-shaped, straight or rectangular. The main condition and the obligatory rule is that the cloak should continue the silhouette of the dress and complement the image, and not an independent element.

The choice of color of the wrap is completely determined by the way. The surest option is to stick to one color.

In the formation of an evening look, a combination of contrasting colors is possible:

  • black dress with a red or white cape;
  • green outfit with a gold element;
  • blue dress with silver.

Choosing the right one and wearing a cloak with an evening dress is an art that every woman should master.

    By almost every evening dress I try to buy a bolero or wrap, because the holidays drag on for a long time, and even in the summer at night it’s cool.
