Short jackets for women

In the latest collections of outerwear, cropped models of jackets have become increasingly common, not only in the demi-season version, but also in the winter one. Thanks to the use of various modern insulation and natural materials, such jackets will make you look stylish, give you warmth and comfort at any time of the year.

The slender girls with an "hourglass" figure have practically no restrictions in choosing the design of cropped jackets, since it is very difficult to visually spoil their silhouette. For owners of ideal proportions, it is important to emphasize all their charms. An excellent helper in this will be a fitted jacket of light colors that fits the silhouette.

Girls, whose figures can be described as a "triangle", in comparison with slender women, are somewhat limited in the choice of models. If your figure is right triangle, then you should choose jackets that will help balance the silhouette. Volumetric models are what you need.

A trapezoidal jacket will help add visual dimension to the bottom of the inverted triangle shape. For a more feminine silhouette, it is recommended to choose two-tone models with a horizontal border of colors that accentuate the waistline. Small breasts will be hidden by patch pockets, and narrow hips will visually increase the voluminous frill along the hem of the jacket.

Jackets of a straight or flared cut, up to the middle of the thigh, are suitable for overweight girls. Made in dark colors, it will visually reduce your volumes, and vertical inserts made of fabric of a bright contrasting color will stretch the silhouette.The same recommendations for choosing are also suitable for pregnant women, who, even in such a crucial period of life, continue to monitor how they look.

Cropped models of jackets are made for all seasons, so when choosing, you should consider when you are going to wear it. Summer models most often resemble simple sweatshirts or jackets. They are made of natural materials - cotton or terry, in which it is not hot in warm weather and warm on a cool summer evening.

Models for the off-season are usually made of thicker fabrics. First of all, it is leather and polyester. Natural material has never lost its relevance. A leather jacket is not blown by the wind, and complete with a lining made of sheepskin or fur, it is not cold in it until freezing temperatures outside.

Among the winter models of cropped jackets, the Alaska jacket is considered the undisputed leader. 100% nylon and cotton are used for its manufacture. A simple lining made of natural fur acts as a heater. Designed for the most extreme weather conditions, it will provide you with comfort and warmth throughout the long winter.

Jackets for this period of time, in terms of their functionality, should not only perfectly protect from rain and wind, but also serve as a stylish detail of any image. For this, the designers had to work hard so that any girl could choose a warm, comfortable, and most importantly, beautiful jacket for this unstable season.

The cut of the jacket should be chosen based on the general style of clothing. The selection of models presented today is able to satisfy the tastes of followers of any fashion trends - from classic business style to informal rocker, from youth sports direction to exquisite Boho.

Winter jacket models are not often found in a cropped version, but they still exist. They can be textile and fur, as well as with additional insulation.

In fabric products, down and feathers are most often used as "filling", less often a synthetic winterizer. Both fillers are quite warm and not very voluminous, so such models have gained popularity among lovers of short jackets, who, despite the cold, are ready to wear their favorite clothes at any time of the year.

An obligatory element of a winter jacket is a hood - it creates additional protection from the wind, and during the thaw period it can play the role of a headgear. Sometimes a curtain-like lacing is inserted along its edge in order, if necessary, to pull it as tightly as possible and keep warm.

But most often the fur trim is an attribute of the hood - voluminous and luxurious. Recently, it has become more and more a stylish detail of the image, partially losing its warming function.

The length of the cropped sleeves of the jacket is usually three-quarters of the length of the full sleeve. Taking measurements to design a pattern for the sleeve of such a jacket model, the seamstress will measure the distance from the shoulder to the point on the radius just above the wrist.

A jacket with short sleeves is made most often for the transitional season. Due to its style, it is not able to warm its owner, therefore, manufacturers of such models of jackets most often focus on design.

As a rule, jackets with short sleeves are sewn from felt, suede, denim or thick cotton. Therefore, when drawing up the rest of the ensemble with the described jacket model, you should carefully choose the texture of things. There are two main prohibitions for such models:

• In no case should the sleeves of clothing, which protrude from under the jacket, be more dense than the jacket itself. It will look very rough and not aesthetically pleasing. The best option is light knitted turtlenecks or cotton blouses.
• The shape of the sleeves of the peeking jacket should be straight. Slightly tapered sleeves are allowed for shirt models with buttons on the cuffs. The flared sleeves of the jacket under the short sleeves of the jacket will only be appropriate at the New Year's carnival.

When choosing an ensemble with a skirt, you should choose combinations that do not imbalance the look. Since the length of the jacket is not lower than mid-thigh, the style of the skirt should not "merge" with it. Putting on a voluminous jacket, match it with a straight-cut skirt, or better a pencil model. If, on the contrary, your skirt is a sun or a bell style, then it is better to wear a fitted jacket, or, in extreme cases, a bomber model.

From shoes with a short jacket and trousers, heels look great. Complete with a skirt, their height should be chosen according to the rule - the shorter the skirt, the lower the heel. Also, do not forget about accessories - a bag matched to the tone of your shoes or a contrasting volumetric scarf can transform your image, adding special sophistication to it and making your bow unique.
