An umbrella is not only a means of protection from the rain, but also a fashion accessory, so you should carefully consider its choice. On sale you can see many different models that differ in shape, size, design and color.
The trend of 2016 was a square umbrella, and to this day it does not lose relevance.
Features
The popularity of square umbrellas is primarily due to the original appearance. It is impossible not to notice them in the crowd, because even in black they look more interesting than the classic round models.
In addition, square products have several features:
- High strength. The umbrella canvas consists of 4 triangular parts that form a square. Spokes are arranged in pairs along the diagonal lines of the seams, due to which the product gains strength and resistance to bending even with strong gusts of wind.
- Reliable rain protection. The square canvas has a large area, so 1 umbrella can cover 2-3 people from the rain. In addition, the unique shape of the umbrella will provide additional protection for the hands.
- Compactness. Despite the large size of the canvas, when folded, the product can fit in a small handbag, since many models have 2-3 additions.
It should be noted that a walk with a square umbrella will not be comfortable for everyone, because this product requires a lot of space.
Models
Umbrellas of a square shape are presented in several variations:
- A cane is elegant models with a large convenient handle in the form of a hook and a thin tip, which is often made of metal.
- Folding products are most popular, they are compact, and when open, the canvas area is the same as that of a cane.
- The non-standard placement of the spokes, due to which the corners of square umbrellas are “softened”, makes them even more original.
- By the type of mechanism, the products are automatic and mechanical, semi-automatic and double automatic.
Do not forget that umbrellas differ not only in design, but also in the size of the canvas, so you should "try on" each model when buying, because their task is reliable protection against precipitation.
Color schemes
Square umbrellas are presented in a variety of colors, so every consumer will find the best option for themselves.
In addition to the classic black models, bright saturated tones of pink, blue, orange and red are relevant. Umbrellas with a white and transparent canvas also look good.
Fans of original colors will certainly like products with two-color canvases, for example, its outer surface can be painted black and the inside blue.
Accessories with all kinds of prints do not lose relevance: ornaments, abstraction, floral and Japanese motifs. The image can be applied to one or both sides of the material. Umbrellas with 3D patterns that attract the eyes of others have gained immense popularity. They usually depict flowers or animals, but other patterns are also found.
Selection tips
When purchasing an umbrella, you should pay attention not only to its appearance, but also to the quality. Selecting the size of the product in closed form depends on the lifestyle and personal preferences.
Most consumers prefer compact folding models that fit easily into their purses, and lovers of elegant looks prefer canes. It is also important that the umbrella reliably protects from rain, so the area of the canvas should be large enough.
Next, inspect the frame of the product. The most durable are those made of elastic plastic or metal, they are able to withstand even strong gusts of wind. An equally important detail is the pen - it should be as comfortable as possible in your hand. As for the colors of the umbrella, its choice will depend on personal preferences.
What to wear?
Square umbrellas suit outfits of different styles. They will complement well with light romantic images, simple everyday and strict business. Since the product has straight lines and angles, it is recommended to choose the appropriate outfit:
- prints in the form of lines or cells;
- outerwear collar with straight, clear lines;
- shoes with a pointed or square toe;
- a square or rectangular handbag.
As for the color scheme, it is not necessary to choose an umbrella to match the tone of clothes, it can be of a neutral color, or in the same shades as a handbag or shoes.
