Models and styles
When purchasing a long mink coat, you need to focus on the features of your figure and the purpose of the coat itself. For every day a great option would be a straight cut coat or with an A-silhouette. This option will emphasize femininity and make the figure more seductive.
The trapezium coats look good, the length of which reaches the middle of the calf. The main thing that such a product was not too bulky on the shoulders - despite the style, the silhouette should not be voluminous.
Long fur coats with a stand-up collar, made in a minimalist style, look great. Another facet is a luxurious collar made from another type of fur, for example, fox, red or silver fox. It looks good long mink coats with a hood, as long as it is soft and voluminous, as a little will look ridiculous.
It is interesting to look wide sleeves "bat" or tapering to the cuffs. By the way, on the cuffs, there can also be inserts from another fur - longer or different in color.
Colour
A long mink coat is the best opportunity to demonstrate the quality and beauty of fur, so it is better to purchase a product of natural color, not dyed. The color of mink skin is not only a matter of aesthetics and beauty, but also an indicator of the uniqueness of the fur, one of the serious components of the price of the entire fur coat.

Ways of sewing
Long mink coats have different ways of sewing, each of which has its own advantages:
In dissolution. The most expensive and time-consuming way of sewing, which came from ancient times to modern times. When sewing “into dissolution”, whole skins are first cut into stripes and then gathered together. This allows you to create a softer, lighter and more elastic product, and also to make the coat look “monolithic”, not have seams between the plates.
Plates. These coats are sewn from solid skins, about the same size as the animal itself. When cutting, the skins are cut into plates, then stitched together. This type of sewing makes the product more durable and wearable, but does not allow the use of sophisticated cuts or design "chips" that require more fine work.
From patches. Fur is a valuable material, they will not be able to scatter. Therefore, the tailoring of fur coats often go less valuable items: legs, tails, foreheads. Skins from these places are carefully collected and stitched. Patchwork coats are of two types - those where the "mosaic" is not hidden, but on the contrary, they emphasize, and those that are cut or dyed to hide heterogeneity.
By jointing. Fur (most often dlinnovorsny - silver fox, polar fox) cut into strips, which then sew on leather or suede ribbons, matched in fur color. The long pile overlaps the joints, so that the product looks absolutely solid and the difference between them is not visible.
How much is?
The price of a mink coat of decent length depends on a lot of factors. This is the value of fur, and the method of tailoring, and the country of manufacture. If we talk about good, good-quality products, then in specialized boutiques their price now ranges from 200 to 350 thousand rubles.
There are more budget options, from sheared or plucked mink. Fur coats stitched with patches also have a lower price - around 100-150 thousand rubles. Elegant design options, from exclusive fur, can reach the sum with six zeros.
What to wear?
Most of all, long mink coats are slim and tall ladies. But even the owners of the ideal do not always wear them correctly. First of all, you should pay attention to shoes.
A long coat will look great with heels - boots or ankle boots.
Do not be afraid to buy high shoes for such a fur coat - boots can reach the knee, there will be no imbalance. If you prefer shoes with low soles, then a strict loafers or oxfords will complement your fur coat perfectly.
For everyday life, it is quite possible to choose simple clothes for a “floor” fur coat — skinny jeans or loose trousers, a sweater or a turtleneck under the throat. Office suit will look appropriate. The main feature of this coat is that no one on the street will see your outfit, dressed under the bottom, so all the attention to accessories.
If we talk about a headdress, then a long coat will fit several options. First of all, it is a neat hat from the same mink, in tone or a little lighter. A good choice is a handkerchief or stole tied to the head. It can be wool, silk or cashmere, according to the weather and your preferences. Another option - beret or knit cap.
The main thing is not to choose a voluminous headdress, as well as a hat, which will make the image cheaper.
