Transparent umbrella

The original transparent umbrella appeared in the 70s of the XX century thanks to the Frenchwoman Madame Courage. The product has become very popular and is still a sought-after accessory in the wardrobe of many modern fashionistas.

The transparent model differs from bright umbrellas made of dense materials by the following criteria:

• Looks stylish. The accessory can be completely transparent or have an interesting print in the form of geometric patterns or leaves, which is suitable for cloudy autumn weather.
• Full overview of the surrounding area. An umbrella helps a person to be liberated, gives freedom and confidence. And the streams of rain flowing down the dome are a bewitching sight, which is a pleasure to watch.
• It is a universal thing. It is suitable for both women and men, it does not tie to any particular style of clothing.

Transparent umbrellas are widely used for photo shoots, celebrations: weddings, birthdays, graduations. A romantic date will be remembered for a long time - a large dome will shelter two people in love from rain and bad weather, create their personal small and cozy world.

There are several options for umbrellas, differing in design, opening and closing methods:

• Mechanical - control is completely manual. Copes well with strong gusts of wind due to its solid construction and use of quality spokes.
• Semi-automatic - opens with a button, closes manually. The models are available with the opposite mechanism: opened manually, closed by pressing a button.
• Automatic machine - opens and closes with a button located on the handle of the umbrella. If it breaks down on the street, then you will not be able to use the accessory further due to its complex design.

The small folding umbrella is very practical and compact. It folds several times, is lightweight and even fits into a handbag.

Umbrella spokes are most often made of carbon fiber. For the manufacture of frames used:

• Aluminum - used to create folding umbrellas, lightweight, inexpensive material, poorly resistant to the effects of bad weather;
• Wood is a durable and pleasant to the touch material, usually found in cane umbrellas;
• Steel is the strongest and highest quality material, it is found more often in men's models.

The dome can be made of polyester fabric - it does not get wet, does not wear out. Polyvinyl is used at least. It looks like plastic wrap. Pongee is a dense fabric that practically does not wrinkle. Raindrops do not linger on it, but immediately flow down.

The name speaks for itself - the accessory folds into an elongated laconic cane. The handle is usually a hook that is convenient for holding the umbrella. It can also be placed comfortably on a bent arm. The opening and closing device is either mechanical or semi-automatic. The dome is strongly rounded downwards and looks like the top of a birdcage.

Products are:

• Completely transparent. Colorless models will ideally complement any look, give it some flavor and originality.
• With prints. Drawings in the form of leaves of various colors are very popular: red and orange, green and yellow, as well as butterflies, patterns in pastel shades - milky, white, pale pink and beige.
• With a strip along the bottom edge. Often this border is in black and white. Options with pink, turquoise and lilac stripes look very feminine and elegant.

A stylish cane umbrella is a very sturdy and reliable thing. Such models are light in weight, have a streamlined shape - rain streams immediately roll down to the ground and do not accumulate on the surface of the dome. Products emphasize the individuality of their owner, serve as a wonderful gift for a birthday or anniversary.

When choosing a fashionable accessory, you need to pay attention to:

• Colour. The umbrella can have a fully transparent canopy or some multi-colored prints that add even more appeal. There are models with colorless domes of various shades: red, yellow, blue and others.
• Practicality. The structure must be strong, easy to fold without tension and difficulty. The main thing is that the umbrella can withstand strong gusts of wind and other weather conditions.
• The size. It is very important, because protection from rain depends on it. Adult models are produced with a dome with a diameter of 80-90 cm, in children's versions - 69-70 cm.
• Mechanism. There are only three of them: mechanical (manual), semi-automatic and automatic. The choice of control method depends on taste preferences and in what situations the accessory will be used. If you need to carry several bags, then a completely manual mechanism will not work - the umbrella is inconvenient to open and close.
• The weight. For women who carry an accessory in a purse, this indicator is one of the main ones when buying. Folding models are the lightest, but also not sufficiently resistant to the effects of bad weather. The cane umbrella is heavier, but strong, resists the wind with dignity.

The best solution is an umbrella with a large canopy diameter, quality construction and simple control mechanism. Such a product will provide complete protection from rain, will not turn inside out.

To create a feminine look, you can choose a transparent umbrella with romantic prints in the form of peas or hearts. It is better to choose clothes of light color: a white A-line skirt, a blouse with beautiful patterns. The handbag should be in neutral shades, and the shoes should have a thick sole or platform, which will prevent your feet from getting wet while walking in the rain.

Retro style: completely transparent product with a thin border around the edges - a stripe in black or blue. It is necessary to choose a blue dress with a strict cut. A bandage is put on the head: a scarf or a shawl with polka dots. A bag and shoes of calm colors or, conversely, bright colors are a kind of accent.

You can create any set, both business and everyday. An umbrella with leaves of different colors is perfect for an autumn look. Summer ensembles include light outfits with animal and plant prints in rich colors.
