Clothing for a teenager is an important detail, because with its help taste and style are formed, as well as a young man or young lady positioning themselves among their peers.
In clothes, as is known, not only adults are met, and it is especially important for teenagers to feel fashionable. Especially it concerns outerwear - besides appearance, it should be warm and practical. We will talk about how to choose a coat for a teenager.
Models
To keep a thin line between aesthetics and convenience, you need, first of all, to decide on a model. This can be a classic or sports option, or a coat in casual style, which teenagers really like.
- ?If your child attends school with a strict form, then you can look at the classic version, so to speak, “on the way out”. The models are distinguished by an A-shaped or straight cut, as a rule, buttons act as a clasp, and a high collar excludes a hood. Such coats can be discreet shades - gray, blue, dark green, it is possible to print in the form of a cage or "goose foot".
Frankly, even at a young age, children in classic coats look very stylish. In this case, you can search for a model in a more active color scheme - bright red, yellow or purple. This color in combination with the classic cut will give an interesting combination.
- Active teens will love the sport coats - variations of elongated jackets, well covering the back, with a hood, plenty of pockets and a zipper or Velcro. Designers offer a lot of colors for such clothes - from non-dirty and practical black or “khaki” to sky-blue or ashen-pink for girls. You can also consider options for more complex colors - mustard, ocher or chocolate.
- Coats in casual style have incorporated the advantages of both models listed above. They can be worn with a classic school uniform, and with sportswear or casual wear - jeans and sweatshirts. These models have a straight cut, as well as more “adult” O-shaped, inflated silhouettes or an hourglass silhouette. Such options can be made of any fabric and combined with fur, knitted or leather inserts.
If we talk about warmer options, but in addition to the appearance you should pay attention to the coat filler. It is better if it is a natural material - goose or eiderdown. However, today's technologies make it possible to fill teenage clothes with modern materials of artificial origin, which are hypoallergenic and warm no worse than natural ones.
Fashion trends
Demi-season clothing for teens, as well as for adults, has its own fashionable nuances. This season, the designers of the "transformers" type - having a fur edge on the collar or sleeves, which can be removed. That is, when the weather allows, the product looks one way, but it is barely cold, the finishing elements can be returned to its rightful place and the coat will look different.
This fall at the peak of fashion warm shades - the color of cocoa, ocher, light brown and the color of rich burgundy foliage. But, in fashion and classics - deep blue, purple and green colors that go both to boys and girls, are again found in the collections of teenage outerwear.
Another fresh trend is quilted fabric, which designers use in clothes for both girls and boys. In addition to the aesthetic appearance, “stitching” makes the coat warmer, as if gathering between the layers of the product.This fabric is often combined with embroidery, decorated with “epaulets” on the shoulders and large false buttons, behind which lies the “zipper”.
What to wear?
As a rule, parents choose for their child upper outerwear, which is easy to combine with those elements of the wardrobe that a teenager already has. However, a hat, scarf and gloves are needed for a new coat, which should look harmonious.
In case you purchased a coat of classic cut, then the other details of the image should correspond to this. It is better to buy a hat, scarf and gloves from one series - one color or from a partner fabric, so that the whole set looks appropriate. Shoes in this case also should choose a classic - leather or suede shoes in black, dark brown or blue.
In the case of sports style and casual style, you can choose contrasting accessories. Even against the background of a dark, non-marking coat, a bright scarf and hat will look good, the colors for which the teenager can choose. Please note that wearing a sport coat does not wear classic shoes, but a coat in casual style will allow for both sneakers and leather shoes.
