None of the fashionable onions of the coming cool season will do without this stylish attribute. Women's windbreakers undeservedly long time did not have the attention of the general public.
But today it’s time to end! Such a thing should be in the wardrobe of every woman of fashion, but rather several at once. How to choose what to wear - we will tell in our article.
pros
It was not by chance that a lightweight women's windbreaker pushed aside coats and trench coats, so beloved by all, a couple of seasons ago. Today, such jackets are presented in a variety of colors, styles and fabrics.
But initially the windbreaker was an exclusively sports attribute. Convenient and practical things firmly and permanently become trends. As sneakers penetrated into all spheres of life - even in office attire - so windbreakers today fit any ensemble.
And yet, if you still believed that this was an attribute of an exclusively youth style, throw the stereotypes aside. Such lightweight jackets are good for absolutely any age!
Popular models
The pledge of relevance for the coming seasons lies in simplicity, ergonomics and versatility. Such models will be especially popular, and no matter what style they are - classic, eclectic or sport.
Special demand for models with a hood. The most popular length is up to the upper line of the hips.
Also interesting are the models of windbreakers, whose length reaches the mid-thigh or slightly covers the buttocks.
And of course this season is not so much the style of windbreakers, but the ensemble that you create in combination with it.
Harmonious images are always relevant, but at the moment they are most important! See for yourself by browsing our selection of photos with fashionable bows of the past seasons.
Waterproof
Each windbreaker, in addition to aesthetic qualities, must have its main characteristics with which they are associated - protection from wind and precipitation. And since not only in the fall and spring, but in the summer, we are often overtaken by torrential rains, most fashionistas try to buy waterproof windbreakers.
Such jackets should be sewn from waterproof material and fastened exclusively with a zipper. The most common types of fabrics for such windbreakers are mantle, membrane-impregnated fabrics, nylon.
Thanks to modern fabric production technologies, such jackets not only do not allow moisture and wind inside, but also allow the body to "breathe". This ensures maximum wearing comfort.
Reflective
In just a few years, the peak of fashion for street sports, running, has developed in all major cities of the world, running, cycling has developed strongly. And, as a result, fashion designers began to actively use reflective elements in their collections.
This can be said not only about sports-oriented clothing brands. Such trend elements are found in almost every large brand involved in the creation of everyday fashion.
Reflective film was developed almost 80 years ago. But for a long time she did not have such a wide use in clothing and footwear, as now. Initially, she appeared solely on workwear and sporting goods. Further actively penetrated into the style of sneakers and sneakers.
And today, reflective elements are found on the most fashionable models of windbreakers - both sports and classic. They reflect light, "burn" in the dark and also have a waterproof effect.
Without lining
Such models are especially relevant in those cases when you want to protect yourself as much as possible from excess volume in clothes. This option is not possible only in sports windbreakers - there lining is required.
But any classic and everyday lightweight jackets can easily do without a lining. As a rule, these are not long models of straight or fitted cut. The clasp is suitable for both zippers and buttons or buttons. A great option for cool summer and early autumn.
Membrane
Waterproof materials (membrane fabrics) work according to the following principle:
- This fabric is very thin, it has a lot of microscopic holes that have a size that is many times smaller than the dimensions of a water drop. So, it turns out that water cannot penetrate inside this fabric.
- Membrane tissue, however, is vapor-permeable, since in the gaseous state water decreases so much that it easily penetrates into the openings of this matter.
- Most membrane tissues have one or more protective layers of more dense material. This reduces the ability of such tissues to pass steam.
Membrane tissues are good precisely because they do not let moisture in, but they allow excess body heat and sweat to come out. That is, such tissues contribute to the improvement of body thermoregulation. Therefore, a windbreaker from such material must be present in the wardrobe of every modern woman!
Windbreaker
A rather fashionable type of light jackets are windbreakers. They should be attributed to the sporting style, but they are appropriate in ensembles for every day. In addition, such windbreakers, as a rule, are unisex, therefore it is almost impossible to make a mistake in choosing - it is enough to determine the color and length.
They are waterproof, presented in stores in a wide range of colors. And they are made of very thin materials, which allows you to conveniently and compactly fold a rain cover and put it in a bag - an invaluable quality for travel lovers.
Fabrics
One of the favorites among the materials for the manufacture of modern windbreakers can be called nylon. It is smooth, pleasant to the touch, durable, affordable and unpretentious to care.
Often, manufacturers, seeking to enhance the excellent characteristics of nylon, use it in the composition of blended fabrics (for example, in tandem with polyester).
Cotton is another favorite of modern windbreaker manufacturers. It is good for lightweight jackets, which, of course, will not protect against rain, but will give a feeling of warmth and comfort. In blended versions, there are also combinations of cotton and nylon - this is the perfect fabric for current windbreakers this season!
Color solutions

The theme of the fauna is also widely used. There are both animal prints (color of the leopard, tiger, zebra, giraffe), and drawings with their direct image. Especially popular prints with birds and fish.
Very young natures can choose for themselves a windbreaker with a cartoon print - designers release many variations on the theme of the famous Disney animated films. Also in the trend are printed on the clothes famous paintings and any images of large size.

There are also variants of double-sided jackets, in which there is a monotonous design on the outside, and a trendy print is located on the same color.
So, you get two jackets in the same color scheme, but in different fashionable variations.
