Coat Silhouettes

When choosing a coat, every woman seeks to choose a model that will fit her perfectly. One of the criteria here will be the choice of a coat by silhouette.

The silhouette of a coat can favorably emphasize the figure, hide flaws or, conversely, point out them, therefore, when choosing a fashionable coat, one should proceed from how the coat differs in silhouette in principle.

Today, fashionable styles of coats are of three main types:

fitted;
straight cut;
trapezoidal (flared).

A coat made in the classic version is perfect for girls with an hourglass figure. The fitted silhouette, slightly flared at the bottom or straight cut, will favorably emphasize the slender body of the girl. This is also the best option for a business-style coat. The straight cut of the coat is usually double-breasted, which adds seriousness to the product. In such a coat, you can go on business trips or every day to work. The peculiarity of the classic cut of the coat is that this type of clothing is suitable for almost everyone.

Choosing a coat of a fitted silhouette, if your figure permits, you can create a very feminine and elegant look. The most common coat styles in this style (fitted silhouette): straight cut dress-coat or flared silhouette; retro coat with a high waistline.

A straight coat silhouette is typical for slender and tall girls. Although a well-chosen wardrobe allows women with a non-ideal figure to wear a straight-cut coat. A looser model is simply selected that does not fit the hips. One of the successful examples of such a coat is a duffle coat. This coat has a typical straight silhouette, which makes the figure visually stretched. The coat can have different lengths, but these models have never been presented in maxi style. The duffle coat is often compared to an elongated sporty-cut jacket with a hood.

You can choose a straight-cut coat in the English style. Perhaps this is the most suitable option for lovers of minimalism in fashion.

Things with a smell are classics of the genre. The outer garment is easy to sew and also easy to wear. The coat is tied with a belt at the waist. You can wear such a coat with anything comfortable - trousers, dresses, skirts.

Models

The style of the coat today is simply amazing. Probably, nothing new can be invented. However, fashion designers are finding new ways to modernize various coat models and other items of clothing. This applies to color, texture, fabric, silhouette and style of the product.

The fashionable style of the coat is gaining popularity very quickly. This is due to the functionality, convenience and appearance of the products. When choosing a suitable model, experts recommend starting from those coat styles that are most popular today.

Short coats. This type of women's wardrobe can tell a lot. Short models are designed for mobile people who need clothes to be comfortable, fashionable and wearable.

Usually, cropped coat options are presented by fashion shows of demi-season collections. Moreover, the images are suitable for both everyday casual and elegant and business styles. The models are democratic enough to withstand criticism.

Jacket coat. This clothing option is versatile. This is a slightly fitted, shortened version of the coat, under which you do not always wear sneakers. Although it all depends on the design of the model. This is more of a youth coat.

In order to wear a coat-jacket, you must at least have beautiful slender hips.

Long coat. Fashion houses show their loyalty to the combination of styles and images against the backdrop of experimenting with the length of the clothes. A long coat, along with a cropped cut, has passed into the category of fashionable models of outerwear in a classic style. When choosing a long coat, of course, you need to proceed from your height so that the coat is not perceived separately from the figure.

The fashion trend of this season is a monochromatic long coat, with practically no decor and no bright prints. It is convenient to dress under a long coat - it can be a dress of different lengths, tight or loose classic trousers. A wide-brimmed hat completes the bohemian bow. And for everyday wear, you can choose a scarf that matches the color.

Oversized coat. The coat has this name due to its cut. Coat models can be straight cut or slightly fitted. But the main thing is that the result is a more "blurred" image that does not highlight the outline of the figure. Such a coat is worn today by women of different ages and complexions.

Successful cut allows you to combine the model with other things. True, the coat is the soloist here, and the rest of the wardrobe elements only play along with the example. The result is an eclectic bow. And in the set, straight trousers, jeans, fitted skirts are suitable for him. Loose-fitting dresses or trousers are not appropriate in this case. But, oddly enough, you can wear stiletto heels to an oversized coat.

Cocoon coat - a great option for sports people. The style appeared in the 60s of the last century and has not changed much since then. Coat models are more reminiscent of designer items. The cut of the coat is more loose, the length can vary from the line of the thighs to the middle of the calves.

Coat with hood. These models have also become classics in the fashion world for a long time. Moreover, it does not matter whether the coat is tailored according to the classic style or it is a variant of a sports cape. The hood is a fundamental detail here. And the hood itself can be very different in style. In addition, the hood of most coat models today is the main decorative element.

Light coat models

Models of fashionable and light coats this season are presented by spring collections. These are bright stylish models with a hood or a belt, fitted, flared at the bottom, cropped or asymmetrical in shape. Light coats with a lining are sewn without insulation, although they are designed for cold weather. A varied palette of shades of light coats makes them incredibly cheerful.

Selection tips for short

Coats for short girls are practically not much different from other models. But female nature is looking for perfection, so when choosing a coat, women tend to choose a model that will help visually make the figure taller. And if you choose shoes with heels for the image, then the task will be completed one hundred percent.

Fashionistas of short stature should give preference to models of coats of a straight cut, slightly flared at the bottom. And in general, it is better to choose models closer to the classics. If a girl prefers a sporty style of clothing, then she should take a closer look at oversized models, duffle coat, raglan, capes. You can select models of medium length, then the coat will go well with the rest of the wardrobe and platform shoes.
