The weather has finally become like winter: white snow (not rain!) And light frost. Meanwhile, a warm anticyclone is in the shops - spring collections arrive and a strategic stock of fashionable novelties, including coats, is replenished. This is the very piece of clothing that women of fashion wear for the longest time - in autumn, spring and even in a capricious summer.
We go in search of a coat that will slim, rejuvenate and does not plan to go out of fashion.
Actual cut and style
The main task of the correct cut is to slim and make the figure more graceful.
Men's straight coat, despite the exaggerated “off the shoulder” format, emphasizes the fragility of the figure and “thin bone”. If a few seasons ago, men's coats were worn exclusively on the catwalks, today they are rightfully considered classics and are easily adaptable to everyday looks. Even with jeans and a turtleneck they look incredibly stylish - take it!
Coat-robe universal model, will fit into any wardrobe and make friends with any style. Suitable for most shapes, except for those with an apple shape. The belt will make unnecessary emphasis on the problem waist and accentuate it.
Single-breasted coat Is a timelessly stylish and feminine classic. It goes well with current trends - pleated skirt, wide jeans, flared trousers, as well as dresses and skirts of any length. This style slims and stretches the silhouette.
And the main plus of a double-breasted coat is that it slims and stretches the silhouette.
Prints that are always in fashion
If you choose a thing for more than one season, then give preference to classic patterns - a cage, a houndstooth or a strip. Remember that the print can fill, and can correct the figure.
Slims:
- Small cage
- Neat goose foot
- Discreet abstract print
Completes:
- Large patterns always add extra volume. For example, a large, horizontally located cell is fat.
- You also need to be more careful with the strip: there should not be much of it on the coat, otherwise there is a risk of reminding others of the mattress. Focus on lines of different thickness. So, horizontal stripes on a white base visually expand the figure, and vertical stripes, contrasting in color on a dark background, on the contrary, slim.
I do not advise Choosing a coat with floral motifs will bore you already next season. Moreover, the trend for this print on the fashion pedestal is changing quite quickly - today a small flower is relevant, and tomorrow a large one. Bud shades are easy to miss too, so it's best to leave this pretty print for the dresses.
Ideal length
The optimal coat length this season is midi (to about mid-calf). This coat is convenient to wear with skirts and trousers. And the short, on the contrary, looks good only with trousers. The maxi model also cannot be called universal: if you are not wearing 20-centimeter heels, then there is a risk that the floors of the coat will instantly sweep the street and collect dirt - then the appearance will be ruined. Knee length is considered classically conservative.
Not that coat!
Too active decor, "gold" fasteners, massive buttons and a round neck "Chanel" this season are outsiders. Among them are models with a narrowed, tight silhouette, and a coat-dress with a flared skirt. The girly style suits the fashionistas of primary school age, and the older ladies choose the classic "imperishable" or unusual trendy models.
A long winter is not included in our plans, and very soon the time will come to change down jackets to light coats. Get ready to walk your new clothes in the first rays of the sun. In spring there will be plenty of reasons!
