Winter coat with fur collar

For over a year now, one of the leading positions in the designers' winter collections has been a woman's coat with a fur collar. Dior offers fans of the creativity of the fashion house to purchase both long and short coat models. Extra-long winter coat with a fur collar from Dior looks stylish, and a short and fitted model, also with a fur collar, gives the silhouette elegance. John Galliano and Oscar de la Renta dwell on the shortened models of winter coats with a fur collar, paying tribute to the classic low-key combinations of colors.

Of course, the European winter with the Russian can not be compared. What warms women in France and Germany, and even more so in Italy and Greece, for Russians can go only for demi-season clothing. In Russia, fashion trends to the detriment of warmth and comfort are followed only by owners of private cars. Pedestrians, in addition to style and compliance with fashion trends are concerned about the durability of the coat and its ability to keep heat.

How to choose a winter coat?

There are several things that you should pay attention to when choosing a coat:

1. The cloth. Cashmere is the most expensive cloth for a coat, it is created from the wool of Kashmiri goats. It retains heat well, is slightly dirty and very pleasant to wear, but with prolonged use, pellets can form on the surface of the tissue. Tweed is a warm cloth, coarser than cashmere. One of the significant advantages - it does not burn out in the sun. But, unfortunately, is a favorite dainty moth. The mat is a coarse woolen fabric, dense, yet quite durable. Velor - soft and pleasant to the touch, but with a regular sock quickly wiped.
2. Heater. It's simple: a sintepon or batting. The thicker the insulation, the warmer it will be in the coat. It should be understood that the thickness of the insulation depends on the appearance of the coat, and on how accurately the heater is sewn, depends on the fit of the coat on the figure.
3. Details. The edge of the sleeve should be tucked not less than 2 centimeters, the bottom edge of the coat - not less than 3 centimeters. In the event that you want to purchase a winter fur coat from faux fur, you should feel its seams. If the seams are not probed, then, most likely, the strips of fur were glued together, and not stitched together. The service life of such a coat will be very short, especially if you get into it under wet snow. Pockets should be deep enough for a hand to fit freely in them.

Care

Tips on how to wash a winter coat of delicate fabrics like cashmere can be not so much useful as harmful. Coats are not washed in a washing machine, but are handed over to dry cleaners. Also, it is not recommended to use the winter coats themselves for another reason: after the coat has dried, it will need to be stripped off, returning it to its previous form, and it is extremely difficult to do it yourself.
