Features and benefits

The Russian climate is the best way to wear fur. It is not yet invented outerwear warmer fur coats. Fox fur is considered one of the most attractive and sought after. The long pile of this fur can warm even in the most severe frosts. The fox fur coat is a rather popular thing that can be found today in the wardrobe of many girls and women, it can be worn by both young women of fashion and elegant ladies in age.

The beautiful and luxurious fox fur attracts admiring glances from the people around them; it is impossible to go unnoticed in such a fur coat.

Models

The modern variety of fur products allows you to choose the right style for even the most fastidious young lady. The models of fox fur coats are represented by short fur products, strict jackets, frivolous jackets, comfortable fur coats, stylish ponchos, practical vests, solemn coats and capes or chic fur coats "to the floor".

Trapezoid shape extending from the chest line to the bottom has long been considered the traditional style of a fox fur coat. This model is quite universal and is suitable for all representatives of the weaker sex, of any age, type of appearance and figure.

Straight cut or even slightly “oversized” medium length is also popular. It will not give extra volume to its owners, but only emphasize their harmony and femininity.

Previously, all fur coats were sewn from vertically selected strips of fur. It was believed that only such a product looks organic, able to slim and expose the fur in the most advantageous light. But at the present time the most demanded fur coats, in which the fur skins are arranged horizontally or transversely. This selection of fur strips creates the original wavy texture. Sometimes designers even more reinforce this unusual effect by cutting out strips.

Fur coats from fox pieces are in great demand due to the originality of the models being created and a more affordable price. After all, the raw material for such fur coats are the remnants of production, which were not suitable for any reasons for tailoring products from solid skins. The main reason is not marriage, as is commonly believed, but a slightly different shade of fox fur, another pile length, and so on.

A more convenient style for girls and women living in a furious urban rhythm will be shortened versions of fox fur coats, a hood or a voluminous collar will be very useful in such models. In addition to the purely aesthetic, they also perform a heat-insulating function. Style "avtoledi" provides a length of not more than 60 centimeters, loose, possibly shortened, sleeve. This model is comfortable, does not hinder movement and does not wipe from a long sitting.

Modern designers love to "play" not only with the shapes of collars, but also with sleeves. Full-length sleeves can be straight or flared, three-quarter sleeves with extensions at the bottom are also popular. If a couple of years ago short fox vests were incredibly popular, then this season is the actual coats or full-length fur coats without sleeves.Under such products you can pry your favorite warm sweater, but for a cold winter, such a duet is not quite suitable, rather for a cool off-season.

The fur coat-transformer is an original product that can be easily turned into a fur coat or vest, by one movement of the hand by unfastening the hem or sleeves. Also, a collar or a hood can be removable in fox transformer coats.

Fox fur looks chic in combination with other types of short fur, natural suede or leather and knitwear. Combined fur coats can consist of one type of fur, but of different colors. The most original look fur coats, in which the upper part to the waistline is made of one type of fur, and the bottom of the other. Mostly voluminous fox fur is used on top of the product, and short-haired mink or astrakhan fur - in the lower part.

Fox coats look quite harmoniously with transverse or longitudinal inserts made of leather or suede. This decor also has a practical function, often designers provide inserts in places most prone to abrasion. Collars, hoods, cuffs and elastic bands of the bottom of the shortened styles of fox fur coats can also be made of dense knitted knitwear.

Fox coats on knitted basis - the trend of recent seasons. These coats are more elegant and lightweight, they do not add completeness and do not distort the proportions of the figure. Fur coats made of knitted fox fur are no less popular. The so-called fur knitwear is created as a result of interweaving of thin fur strips on a special elastic mesh basis. Products made of knitted fur are attractive, lightweight and compact, moreover, unlike fur coats made of solid plates or pieces, knitted fur costs much less.

Length

A long fox fur coat to toe is gorgeous, no doubt, but it doesn’t fit in with the modern pace and lifestyle. Such a luxurious product is only suitable for reaching a restaurant or a theater, preferably on a clean sidewalk, away from the roadway. You can walk through the winter park and arrange a luxurious photo shoot there. But getting into a car, and even more so to drive it in a long fur coat is not convenient, to go in and get out of public transport without being smudged is a difficult task, it’s also risky to ride the subway, a long hem can easily “chew” an escalator. In addition, long coats are extremely tall and slim ladies.

To get around the city, it is much more practical to purchase a fox fur coat of medium length, the sheepskin coat will not be underfoot, but it will not allow its owner to freeze. Modern avtoledi choose shortened versions of fur products, since most modern cars are equipped with heated seats, you can even sit in a mini-skirt, the main thing is not to freeze on the way to the car.

Fur coats made of sheared fox are quite popular, shearing allows you to give the fur a more refined look, such a product makes the figure more slender and graceful, but the insulating qualities are noticeably affected.

The very first coat of dyed fox appeared for the first time in 1971 thanks to the famous Yves Saint Laurent. Since then, dyed fur has occupied a solid niche in the fashion industry. The modern chemical industry creates dyes that do not damage the fur and do not adversely affect its heating properties.

Fashion trends

In addition to cutting and dyeing fox fur, such a fashionable trend as “pinching” is becoming common. Plucked fur is obtained by pulling out the longest and stiffish fleeces from the skins with the help of a special device, leaving the velvet underpressure intact. Due to the total removal of the guard coat, the fur coat is made almost plush.

Often, a haircut and a pinch are applied in the aggregate - first, the upper long hairs are clipped, and then the velvety undercoat is pulled out, giving the fur various curly patterns, for example, under "velveteen". Modern fur designers popularize the so-called polishing of sheared fur with the help of special abrasive machines.

Another trend in the fur industry is painting the nap in combination with bleaching. In this case, there is a different color of fur at the base and at the tip.

  • Platinum. The white color of the guard hairs turns to gray, in the middle of the skin is a dark color.
  • Silver - rare color, shimmers in the sun and shines.
  • Blue - the look of an arctic fox, the lighter the shade, the more expensive the fur coat.
  • Golden - shiny rich, rather rare fur color.
  • White The natural color of the polar fox (arctic fox) in winter is snow white.

Today, not all fox fur coats are made from the skins of natural colors.

Red, pink, green, blue, and even black furs are popular. The most courageous and desperate women of fashion can get a fox fur coat that combines several bright colors.

If there is a suspicion of durability, you can hold the fur with a moist light handkerchief, it is important that it remains clean after the test.
  2. Inspect the lining, it is better if it is not sewn to the hem, so you can explore the fur inside out. The seams between the skins should be smooth, neat, without protruding threads and knots. From the fur coat, the pieces of which are glued together, it is better to stay away. Fox skin center - soft to the touch, milky shade. The presence of stains and streaks is not allowed. Pay attention to the sewn labels and company tags, carefully read the information contained in them.
