Coats for teens
Clothing for a teenager is an important detail, because with its help taste and style are formed, and also a young man or a young lady position themselves among their peers.
As you know, not only adults are met by their clothes, and it is especially important for adolescents to feel fashionable. This is especially true of outerwear - in addition to its appearance, it should be warm and practical. We will talk about how to choose a coat for a teenager.
Models
To keep the fine line between aesthetics and convenience, you first need to decide on the model. It can be a classic or sporty option, or a casual coat that teens really like.
- ?If your child is attending an educational institution with a strict uniform, then you can take a closer look at the classic version, so to speak, "on the way out." Models differ in A-shaped or straight cut, as a rule, buttons act as a fastener, and a high collar excludes a hood. Such coats can be restrained shades - gray, blue, dark green, possibly a print in the form of a cage or "houndstooth".
Frankly, even at a young age, children in classic coats look very stylish. In this case, you can look for a model in a more active color scheme - bright red, yellow or purple. This color, combined with a classic cut, will give an interesting combination.
- Active teenagers will love sports coats - variations of elongated jackets that cover the back well, with a hood, plenty of pockets and a zipper or Velcro. Designers offer tons of colors for such clothes - from non-marking and practical black or khaki, to sky blue or ash pink for girls. You can also consider options for more complex colors - mustard, ocher or chocolate.
- The casual coats incorporate the benefits of both of the above. They can be worn both with the classic school uniform, and with sportswear or casual - jeans and sweatshirts. These models have a straight cut, as well as more "adult" O-shaped, puffy silhouettes or an hourglass silhouette. Such options can be made from any fabric and combined with fur, knitted or leather inserts.
If we talk about warmer options, but in addition to the appearance, you should pay attention to the coat filler. It is better if it is a natural material - goose or eider down. However, today's technologies make it possible to fill teenage clothes with modern materials of artificial origin, which are hypoallergenic and warm no worse than natural ones.
Fashion trends
Demi-season clothing for teenagers, as well as for adults, has its own fashionable nuances. This season, designers gravitate towards models of the "transformer" type - with a fur trim on the collar or sleeves, which can be removed. That is, when the weather permits, the product looks one way, but it is barely cold, the trim elements can be returned to their rightful place and the coat will look different.
Warm shades are at the height of fashion this fall - cocoa, ocher, light brown and deep burgundy foliage. But, in fashion and classics - deep blues, purples and greens, which go to both boys and girls, are again found in the collections of teenage outerwear.
Another fresh trend is quilted fabric, which designers use in clothing for both girls and boys. In addition to the aesthetic appearance, "quilting" makes the coat warmer, as if gathering together the layers of the product. This fabric is often combined with embroidery, decorated with "epaulettes" on the shoulders and large false buttons, behind which the "lightning" is hidden.
What to wear with?
As a rule, parents choose universal outerwear for their child, which can be easily combined with those wardrobe elements that the teenager already has. However, a new coat requires a hat, scarf and gloves to look harmonious.
If you have purchased a classic cut coat, then other details of the image should correspond to this. It is better to purchase a hat, scarf and gloves from the same series - of the same color or from a partner fabric, so that the whole set looks appropriate. In this case, you should also choose classic shoes - leather or suede boots in black, dark brown or blue.
In the case of a sporty and casual style, you can choose contrasting accessories. Even against the background of a dark, non-marking coat, a bright scarf and hat will look good, the colors for which the teenager himself can choose. Please note that you cannot wear classic shoes with a sports coat, but a casual-style coat will allow you to wear both sneakers and leather boots.
