Leopard fur coat
Leopard print is one of the most controversial phenomena in the fashion world. In some periods, he is outright bad taste, bored with all his luridness. In others, it is the main trend of the seasons, which is embodied in clothes, shoes, accessories. This year is favorable for leopard spots, and therefore they appeared on outerwear, and in particular on fur coats.
Types and features
Leopard fur coats are divided into several types, the general meaning of which boils down to natural color. In one case, it is completely natural, invented by nature itself, since the products are sewn directly from leopard fur. The second type includes fur coats made of natural or artificial fur, on which an animal print is applied.
A leopard fur coat is a rare luxury that not everyone can afford, since prices for one skin can reach several thousand dollars. The fur of a wild animal is prized for its appearance, for its unique pattern of spots, and also for its color, which ranges from warm gold to cold sandy.
The ornament of black and brown spots is unique for each animal, and therefore we can safely talk about the exclusivity of each model. A natural variety of the length and density of the fur is possible, since this is influenced by the habitat of the animal, as well as the season.
The mass production of leopard skins led to the threat of their complete extinction, and therefore hunting them was banned everywhere. Leopard fur coats in modern times are altered products from old models. Since the material is in short supply, an excellent option was found - drawing a picture.
Leopard-print fur coats are ubiquitous. They can be made from natural materials, if they are well exposed to staining, however, it is artificial products that prevail.Often, artificial material can be decorated with fox, raccoon, rabbit mink fur along the edges of the sleeves or hood.
The applied drawing can be different, sometimes very far from natural, in color and shape. For example, bright shades of leopard print, such as purple and green, are trendy this season.
One of the important features of artificial fur coats is their low price. She, in turn, makes it easy to part with a fur coat if it suddenly becomes unusable or bright colors have lost their relevance.
Models
The leopard color is bright, attractive and very active. He is able to overshadow the whole image and the very owner of a fur coat. To prevent this from happening, it is customary to make a product with this animalistic pattern modest and laconic. Thus, the simplicity of the cut is compensated by the colors, creating a stylish model of outerwear.
The most commonly used lengths are mini and, much less often, midi. Maxi, that is, fur coats to the floor, are very rare and, in the case of poor-quality design and poor combination with other clothes, can turn into a spotted disaster. Length to mid-thigh is relevant.
The cut itself is predominantly straight or with hints of an A-shaped silhouette. Fitted fur coats are less common. Most often, to accentuate the waist, a single-color leather belt is included with the product.
What to wear with?
There is one important rule to keep in mind when wearing leopard-print items: this pattern does not tolerate competition. The rest of the clothes and shoes in the company with a leopard coat should be dark or basic color, then the beautiful ornament with animal spots will play especially brightly and richly.
Short models open up a view of the legs, and therefore special attention should be paid to pants. Fit jeans and trousers, sometimes even leggings. If the fur coat is small and not voluminous, then free clothing options, including a flared one, will do.
You can wear a high-necked blouse, shirt, sweater. It can also be a short dress when it comes to a cocktail party. But a long skirt or dress can be worn only if the length of the outerwear allows.
The choice of footwear should depend on the weather and the length of the fur coat. So, with short models, you can safely wear high boots and over the knee boots, especially fashionable this year. Classic neat fur coats will look with ankle boots and ankle boots with heels, and younger models can be combined with boots.
Since we are talking about the cold season, then, most likely, such companions as gloves, scarves and hats will be required for the fur coat. The classic options are best suited, volumetric and monochromatic, since they should warm up, and not distract attention.
The bag can be of different style, and as for the color, it is better to match it to the tone of the shoes. One of the most popular accessories for a fur coat is a leather belt.
