Women's windbreakers 2021
Not a single fashionable bow of the coming cool season is complete without this stylish attribute. Women's windbreakers have not received due attention from the general public for an undeservedly long time.
But it's time to end it today! Such a thing should be in the wardrobe of every fashionista, and preferably several at once. How to choose what to wear - we will tell you in our article.
pros
It is no coincidence that the lightweight women's windbreaker pushed aside the raincoats and trench coats, so beloved by everyone a couple of seasons ago. Today, these jackets are available in a wide variety of colors, styles and fabrics.
But initially the windbreaker was an exclusively sporting attribute. Comfortable and practical things are becoming trends for a long time. As sneakers have penetrated all walks of life - even in office outfits - so today windbreakers are suitable for any ensemble.
And also, if you still believed that this is an attribute of an exclusively youth style, cast aside stereotypes. Such lightweight jackets are good for absolutely any age!
Popular models
The key to relevance for the coming seasons lies in simplicity, ergonomics and versatility. Such models will be especially popular, no matter what style they are in - classic, eclectic or sports.
Models with a hood are in particular demand. The most popular length is up to the upper thigh line.
Also interesting are the models of windbreakers, the length of which reaches the middle of the thigh or slightly covers the buttocks.
And of course, this season is not so much the style of the windbreaker that is important as the ensemble that you create in combination with it.
Harmonious images are always relevant, but at the moment they are most important! Convince yourself of this by looking at our selection of photos with fashionable looks from the latest seasons.
Waterproof
Each windbreaker, in addition to aesthetic qualities, should have the main characteristics with which they are associated - protection from wind and precipitation. And since not only in autumn and spring, but also in summer, torrential rains quite often overtake us, most women of fashion are trying to acquire precisely waterproof windbreakers.
Such jackets must be made of waterproof material and must be closed exclusively with a zipper. The most common fabric options for such windbreakers are raincoat material, membrane-impregnated fabrics, nylon.
Thanks to modern technologies for the production of fabrics, such jackets not only keep moisture and wind out, but also allow the body to "breathe". This ensures maximum wearing comfort.
Reflective
In just a few years, in all major cities of the world, the peak of fashion for street sports, running has come, and the cycling culture has developed greatly. As a result, fashion designers began to actively use reflective elements in their collections.
This is not only true for sports-oriented clothing brands. These trendy elements can be found in almost every major fashion brand.
Reflective sheeting was developed nearly 80 years ago. But for a long time it did not have such widespread use in clothing and footwear as it is now. It originally appeared exclusively on workwear and sporting goods. Then she actively penetrated 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, glow in the dark and are also waterproof.
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 - lining is required there.
But any classic and everyday lightweight jackets can easily do without padding. As a rule, these are short models of a straight or fitted cut. The clasp here will suit both a zipper and buttons or buttons. A great option for cool summers and early autumn.
Membrane
Waterproof materials (membrane fabrics) work according to the following principle:
- Such tissue is very thin, it has many microscopic holes, which are many times smaller than the dimensions of a drop of water. So, it turns out that water cannot penetrate into this tissue.
- The membrane fabric, however, is vapor-permeable, since in the gaseous state the water decreases so much that it easily penetrates into the holes of this matter.
- Most membrane tissues have one or more protective layers of denser material. This reduces the vapor permeability of such fabrics.
Membrane fabrics are good precisely because they do not let moisture inside, but allow excess body heat and sweat to escape. That is, such tissues help to improve the thermoregulation of the body. Therefore, a windbreaker made of this material must be present in the wardrobe of every modern woman!
Windbreaker raincoat
A rather fashionable variety of light jackets are raincoats. They should be attributed to the sporty style, but they are appropriate in ensembles for every day. In addition, such windbreakers, as a rule, are unisex, so it is almost impossible to make a mistake in the choice - it is enough to decide on the color and length.
They are waterproof and available in stores in a wide range of colors.And they are also made of very thin materials, which allows you to conveniently and compactly roll up the raincoat and put it in your bag - an invaluable quality for travel enthusiasts.
Fabrics
One of the favorites among the materials for the manufacture of modern windbreakers can be safely called nylon. It is smooth, pleasant to the touch, durable, affordable and easy to maintain.
Often manufacturers, in an effort to enhance the superior performance of nylon, use it in blended fabrics (for example, in tandem with polyester).
Cotton is another favorite of modern windbreaker manufacturers. It is good for light jackets, which, of course, will not protect you from rain, but will give you a feeling of warmth and comfort. There are also cotton and nylon blends in the blended options - the perfect fabric for a trendy windbreaker this season!
Color solutions
For the coming seasons, practically nothing limits you in choosing a palette for a windbreaker. When considering a color scheme, think about whether your entire wardrobe can go well with the vending jacket. Then the choice of color will be correct.
Black
An excellent option for adherents of a strict traditional style. Black is relevant literally in every season of recent years. And this is especially true for outerwear. Whether it's classic or sporty, black windbreakers can help create a sleek and stylish look.
White
This color is always refreshing. Old windbreakers are good for a woman of any age. They will perfectly complement an office suit or casual outfit. The combination "white top, black bottom" still looks impressive and relevant. Also, a white hooded windbreaker will look good with light blue jeans and white sneakers.
Red
In the current season, the shade of the red palette called "fiesta" is very much appreciated. Take note of this if you decide to purchase a red windbreaker. Such a thing will especially suit burning brunettes or platinum blondes.
A bright red windbreaker without a hood will perfectly complement a black evening dress or a strict office suit in black and white or navy blue.
In casual outfits of the casual style, she also always has a place: with jeans (black or light blue), with sports jersey pants, with a non-classic skirt or even with shorts - there are endless combinations of combinations.
Blue
Traditional windbreakers - both sporty and classic - have long been available in a pleasant navy blue. You can follow the established canons, or you can experiment. This season, a deep, rich, but at the same time bright blue color is in vogue - cornflower blue.
It will be especially relevant on classic windbreakers and raincoats. The color “Bay of Biscay” (blue-turquoise), which made a splash last season, is still in trend.
Green
In this range, the favorite of the season is the "flash green" color. Bright, warming, bringing in a touch of freshness - a great option for a light jacket. You should also pay attention to the trendy green color from the bedding range - mint.
It is suitable for romantic natures, for creating delicate images in clothes. Both colors are great options for red-haired beauties!
Yellow
Love this color? Then look for a windbreaker in this season's trendy buttercup shade. Bright, juicy, it will cheer you up in bad weather! Perfect color solution for the raincoat.
Casual windbreakers in this range look no less advantageous. These jackets are good for any age and type of appearance.
With prints
Youth fashion today actively uses original prints in clothes. Windbreakers are no exception.
Floral designs are still relevant, as well as any plant theme: oak leaves or ferns, wild tropical thickets - all this can be found on modern light jackets.
The fauna theme is also widely used.There are both animal prints (the color of a leopard, tiger, zebra, giraffe), and drawings with their direct image. Bird and fish prints are especially popular.
Very young natures can choose for themselves a cartoon print windbreaker - designers release many variations on the theme of the famous Disney animated films. Also in the trend are famous paintings printed on clothes and any large-sized images.
Ageless option - ethnic motives in the drawing, as well as small cells, stripes, geometric abstraction.
Bilateral
An interesting solution for the most fashionable practical people. Reversible windbreakers make it possible to combine two in one thing at once, which will allow you to equip your wardrobe with light jackets for all occasions at a lower cost.
As a rule, reversible windbreakers are made of contrasting colors and different fabrics (on the one hand - smooth, waterproof, on the other - cotton).
There are also options for reversible jackets, in which the outside is a monochromatic design, and inside there is a fashionable print in the same color.
So, you get, as it were, two jackets in the same color scheme, but in different fashionable variations.
