Light coat

The off-season, the sun reluctantly gives us warmth, the wind shows its very cool attitude, and then a light coat comes to our aid as an alternative to standard cardigans, warmed windbreakers and jackets.

The peculiarity of the light coat is ... its lightness, and even emphasized femininity, even if the coat has a shapeless fit or oversight. The image created with the help of this outerwear is always elegant, flying.

• A tulip coat is a light coat that imitates a wrap dress, usually with rounded shelves and an accentuated waist. Single or double-breasted, with different types of collars, with decorative elements in the form of a Basque or fur trim, these coats are the embodiment of femininity.

• Coat-jacket - wide shoulders, long collar line, loose fit, as if the thing with someone else's shoulder. An interesting solution for girls who love not men's style itself, but themselves in men's things.

• Coats-kimono - for those who love the eastern lines of cut. The sleeve is short, long, exaggerated free. Such a coat does not always have a clasp, it often imitates a robe with a smell and a wide belt.

• The coat without sleeves - it sounds strange, it looks unusual, but this particular coat model is rapidly coming into fashion (including in the rather unfriendly climatic conditions of the off-season of our country) and is popular with both fashion house designers and women outside the catwalk.

• Coat-cape. Two more topical news of the season, which are often confused among themselves - a coat-poncho and a coat-cap. A poncho is a square, round or rectangular cape with a hole for the head. Cape differs from it in that it is tailored taking into account the lines of the figure, in particular, the shoulders, and usually has slots for the arms. Poncho - informal and unusual clothes, the cap allows you to create a rather elegant and even elegant style.

• Coat with a fur collar - for those who can not imagine their lives without luxury. And let it be almost not cold outside - a detachable collar made of natural or artificial fur will rest comfortably on your shoulders and give you a feeling of comfort and chic.

• Oversize coats - a wide cut, a flat line of shoulders, voluminous sleeves, emphasize the fragility of a thin figure and visually make a slimmer woman, dissatisfied with excess, in her opinion, kilograms.

• A summer coat with or without a lining is an indispensable option for an evening out in cool summer. Elegant lace, from airy fabrics, or Jacquard, sewn on a figure or strongly fitted with a full skirt, they make an impressive impression and leave a pleasant “aftertaste”.

• Ultra-light coat with downy fillings - for those cases when we want heat so much, and rather cold evenings do not want to indulge our desires. A quilted light down coat will easily warm you, and your graceful silhouette will not suffer at all.

• Coat of waterproof fabric. The coat is good for everyone except for one - hitting it in the rain, you risk not just getting wet, which is also unpleasant, but also losing your favorite item of clothing, because not all fabrics easily tolerate abundant moisture. Coat of waterproof fabric is designed to solve this problem, in it you can look great and will be reliably protected from the insidious weather.

• Sporty coats - for those who prefer a sporty style or just lead an active lifestyle and appreciate the opportunity to look fit and stylish, but at the same time feel completely comfortable.

Every woman who chooses for herself a light coat, summer or designed for the off season, can be sure that the choice of length will be unlimited. As for the relevance of the current season, there is quite a confident tendency towards the priority of midi length - approximately to the middle of the leg.

The materials used to create a light coat are not limited to seasonal conditions and can be radically different in composition, color, and density. The lightweight drape and delicate lace, waterproof fabric and suede, quilted fabric with light insulation and thin patent leather, dense jacquard and weightless chiffon on the lining are used with success.

When deciding on the color of your chosen coat, rely on your own color type of appearance and taste.

In light coats of joyful spring (blue, light green, coral), cozy autumn (ocher, green, orange, burgundy, chocolate) scales, summer evening coats of metallic, sea green, classic white, black or beige colors, in a coat with interesting Prints or intricate decor you will always be interesting to yourself and others.

Classic straight cut coat will require from you the same strict trousers or skirts with a blouse, which will suit oxfords, shoes or shoes with a steady heel.

If you decide to take a chance and put on a coat-jacket, then a mini-dress and chrome boots-boots will become the logical conclusion of the image: to shock - so to shock with taste.

Straight jeans and loafers, a short straight dress of tweed, thick tights and ankle boots, skinny jeans, sweater and platform shoes, sneakers and loose pants, an airy lace dress, the length of which, as opposed to custom, can be significantly longer than the length of the coat and shoes -floats - with a coat of this style everything will be appropriate, and, as they say, in the subject.

A raglan overcoat with a short sleeve without a collar can be worn on a long-sleeved sweater or have long gloves for it. Coat length to mid-thigh will allow you to wear a medium-length skirt and ankle boots or closed shoes. A wide-brimmed hat is perfect for this.

The trendy look of this season - a sleeveless coat - can be lightweight. If you wear it, for example, with narrow leather pants, turtleneck and shoes on the strap, you can be sure that you will attract attention.

With a poncho, single or double layered, you can allow yourself to be mischievous and put on a lace mini dress that will look out from under the poncho, loose tights or high socks with a pattern and platform shoes. Skinny dark jeans that are long with bone, a white shirt with a tie and loafers look great with a cap.

Summer light coats involve wearing them with elegant dresses of various styles or elegant trouser suits. Studs to help you!
