Transparent umbrella

The original transparent umbrella appeared in the 70s of the XX century thanks to the Frenchwoman Madame Courage. The product has become very popular and is still a sought-after accessory in the wardrobe of many modern fashionistas.

Transparent model differs from bright umbrellas made of dense materials by the following criteria:

• It looks stylish. The accessory can be completely transparent or have an interesting print in the form of geometric patterns or leaves, which is suitable for cloudy autumn weather.
• Full overview of the surrounding area. An umbrella helps a person to relax, gives freedom and confidence. And the streams of rain flowing down the dome are a bewitching spectacle, which is a pleasure to watch.
• Is a universal thing. It is suitable for both women and men, does not attach to any particular style of clothing.

Transparent umbrellas are widely used for photo shoots, celebrations: weddings, birthdays, graduations. A romantic date will be remembered for a long time - a large dome will protect two people in love from rain and bad weather, create their personal small and cozy world.

There are several options for umbrellas, differing in design, methods of opening and closing:

• Mechanical - fully manual control. It copes well with strong gusts of wind due to its robust construction and the use of high-quality knitting needles.
• Semi-automatic - opens with a button, closes manually. There are models with the opposite mechanism: it opens manually, it closes by pressing a button.
• Automatic - opens and closes with a button located on the handle of the umbrella. If its breakdown occurs on the street, then further use of the accessory will not work due to the complex design.

The small folding umbrella is very practical and compact. It folds several times, has a small weight and even fits in a handbag.

Umbrella spokes are most often made of carbon fiber. For the manufacture of frames used:

• Aluminum - used to create folding umbrellas, lightweight, inexpensive material, poorly resistant to the effects of weather;
• Wood is a durable and pleasant to the touch material, usually present in reed umbrellas;
• Steel is the strongest and high-quality material, found more often in male models.

The dome can be made of polyester fabric - it does not get wet, does not undergo wear. Polyvinyl is used at least. It looks like plastic wrap. Pongee is a dense fabric, practically does not crease. Raindrops on it do not linger, but immediately drain.

The name speaks for itself - the accessory folds into an oblong laconic cane. The handle is usually a hook for which it is convenient to hold an umbrella. It can also be conveniently placed on a bent arm. The opening and closing device is either mechanical or semi-automatic. The dome is strongly rounded down and looks like the top of a bird cage.

Products are:

• Completely transparent. Colorless models ideally complement any image, give it some zest and originality.
• With prints. Drawings in the form of leaves of various colors: red and orange, green and yellow, as well as butterflies, patterns of pastel shades - milky, white, pale pink and beige are very popular.
• With a strip on the bottom edge. Often such a border is made in black and white. Options with pink, turquoise and lilac stripes look very feminine and elegant.

A stylish umbrella cane is a very sturdy and reliable thing. Such models are light in weight, have a streamlined shape - rain streams immediately roll down to the ground and do not accumulate on the surface of the dome. Products emphasize the individuality of their owner, serve as a wonderful gift for a birthday or anniversary.

When choosing a fashion accessory, you must pay attention to:

• Color. An umbrella can have a completely transparent dome or some multi-colored prints that give even more attractiveness. There are models with colorless domes of various shades: red, yellow, blue and others.
• Practicality. The design should be strong, easy to fold without stress and difficulty. The main thing is that the umbrella can withstand strong gusts of wind and other weather conditions.
• The size. It is very important, because rain protection depends on it. Adult models are produced with a dome, the diameter of which is 80-90 cm, in children's versions - 69-70 cm.
• Mechanism. There are only three of them: mechanical (manual), semi-automatic and automatic. The choice of control method depends on taste preferences and in which situations the accessory will be used. If you need to carry several bags, then a completely manual mechanism will not work - the umbrella is inconvenient to open and close.
• Weight. For women wearing an accessory in a handbag, this indicator is one of the main ones when buying. Folding models are the lightest, but not weatherproof enough. The umbrella cane is heavier, but stronger, with dignity resists the wind.

The best solution is an umbrella with a large dome diameter, quality construction and simple control mechanism. Such a product will provide complete protection against rain, will not turn inside out.

To create a feminine look, you can choose a transparent umbrella with romantic prints in the form of peas or hearts. It is better to choose clothes of light color: a white A-silhouette skirt, a blouse with beautiful patterns. The handbag should be neutral in shades, and the shoes should be on a thick sole or platform, which allows you not to wet your feet while walking in the rain.

Retro-style: a completely transparent product with a thin border around the edges - a strip of black or blue. It is necessary to choose a blue dress of a strict style. A bandage is put on the head: a scarf or polka dot scarf. Bag and shoes in soothing colors or, on the contrary, in bright colors - a peculiar accent.

You can make any set, both business and everyday. An umbrella with leaves of different colors is perfect for the autumn look. Summer ensembles include light outfits with animalistic and floral prints in rich colors.
