Coat - the most comfortable clothing for the fall. It is stylish and warm, which is suitable for both mods and merzljak. Those who want to stand out from the crowd of trench coats and cocoons should take a closer look at the cape coat.
What is it?
Coat-cape is a cape of a trapezoidal style, thanks to which the product has a line of shoulders. This distinguishes the Cape from the usual shapeless capes. Despite the fact that such coats are rather loose, they are nevertheless cut to fit. They have buttons that go along the entire length. Sometimes a cape looks like a traveling cloak of people of the past, when buckles are present only on the neck, and then it is worn open-haired.
Another feature of the cap is the slits for the arms or, much less often, the 3/4 sleeves. Even if it is cut, the coat can be so cut that only hands can be seen.
Thanks to its free form and the variety of lengths, girls with all kinds of external data and body types can find a suitable cape coat.
Cape and poncho belong to the type of capes, but still there are significant differences between them, which will not allow to confuse these two products.
A poncho is a cape with a slit for the head. It is put on over the head and does not have clasps. Though beautiful, the poncho hangs down from the shoulders, and the hands are hidden under it. With each movement, even if it is necessary to just open the door, one has to somehow raise the edge of the poncho. That is why this type of clothing is more likely to be a special kind of sweaters, especially since most often it is a knitted product.
Cape, in turn, thanks to the traced line of the shoulders more like a coat of free style. Yes, and do something with your hands in the cape is much easier, because for them there are cuts instead of sleeves. Cape is considered to be outerwear designed for the fall and spring, as it is sewn from appropriate warm materials.
Poncho and cape have many differences, primarily in the warming functions. But they are united not only by the absence of sleeves, but in general, the same rules when combined with other clothes.
Models and materials
Capes didn’t immediately become popular with modern women, so designers didn’t make much effort to fix it. A variety of models proves that a cape is not necessarily a large piece of fabric with buttons. The Cape Coat is a very feminine and intriguing outerwear.
Coat-Cape is of different lengths. From the shortest, which go approximately along the line of the hips, to the longest, to the calf muscle. Demand and capes of medium length, just above the knees. It is the latter that is the trend of this year.
The styles can be divided into two large groups, and they depend on the type of fasteners. Those capes whose buttons or hooks are only on the neck are very similar to raincoats. With such a coat it is very important what is worn under it, because the whole image is visible and nothing is hidden under the outerwear. Buttoned capes along the entire length look more like a coat, especially fitted models. And those and others may have different cutouts for the sleeves: sometimes the whole arm is visible, starting from the shoulder, and sometimes only the hand and the palm.
Coats have different styles: classic and sophisticated in shape, bright and hooligan youth, simple street and casual, elegant chic. Diversity is achieved thanks to the cut and details. On the capes there are fur or knitted collars, decorative elements like embroidery, sewn beads, appliqués. Very rarely you can see pockets and belts.
Coat-cape - demi-season clothing, so they sew it from the appropriate materials, most often drape and six. They allow you to keep warm and protect from the wind.However, for strong frosts, the capes are still not suitable, since they have too loose cut and no sleeves. As for the colors, there are no restrictions: black and gray, white and beige, orange, blue, green. They can also meet print, for example, animalistic, geometric or ethnic.
What to wear?
Coats are good because they suit any type of figure. A free cut will help to hide the problem areas in the area of the tummy, hips or sides. Shortened models will visually increase growth, while long and belted ones will make the necessary accents on a good figure. Therefore, coat-cap is an excellent acquisition, although it seems unusual, unusual. It is worth the risk to get a coat in the wardrobe, which will create charming and original images.
The capes are voluminous, therefore, in order not to look like in a robe, you should select only fitting things in the kit. The surest option is skinny jeans. However, it is worth being careful with the choice of their style, as coarse and bold models will definitely not suit such elegant outerwear. It is necessary to adopt tight pants, leggings, shorts.
To add even more femininity, choose a skirt. The pencil skirt is the most suitable, since with a flared model, the cap can look ridiculous. A dress of direct cut will suit, perhaps even the presence of cuts on it. In combination with a skirt and a dress, it should be remembered that outerwear should be about the same length with them.
Since the caps do not have sleeves, it is assumed that they have clothes under them - blouses, shirts. The capes in combination with the elongated sweaters of large knitting look interesting. On warm days, you can bare shoulders, wearing tunics, tops and blouses with short sleeves or without them.
However, if you do not want to wear long-sleeved clothes under the cape, you can buy elongated gloves, then the handles will stay warm. They can be knitted, leather or knitted, and the color should be either in tone coat or contrast. It is better to choose knitted hats and hats from hats, especially with wide brim. With such a coat you can wear knitted scarves, stoles, silk scarves.
