Suede coat
The quality of outerwear has always been the main indicator of the prosperity of a person and his attitude to his own style. And people who care about their health during the cold season will never allow themselves to wear clothes from poor-quality and poorly heating material.
As for women, they have always been famous for their love for exquisite and noble things, so the designers this season decided to please the fashionable women with a special kind of coat - suede. And let this material be terribly impractical and capricious, girls choose it with pleasure. This is due to the exquisite appearance of the fabric with a whole bunch of positive features.
Features
At its core, suede is an ordinary skin, but specially treated and turned upside down. This material has much lower strength than classic leather, but differs in a more original fleecy texture.
It is interesting that with proper care, namely systematic processing with special means, proper cleaning and preserving from moisture, this material can last for an incredibly long time.
Few people know that suede can be made from different types of skins, including sheep and cow. Also for the production of suede can be used skins of deer, deer, moose and antelope. The inner part of the skins, in addition to the velvety texture, is also characterized by the absence of a characteristic leather shine.
Suede villi themselves can be of different lengths, but the material is always extremely soft. Due to the complexity of processing, natural suede has always belonged to expensive materials.
Variety of materials and finishes
In order to get suede, the prepared pelt is subjected to a special suede process, impregnating with various types of fats. This may include fish oils, animal and vegetable fats.
In the process of processing, the natural oxidation of fatty substances occurs, and the skin acquires water-repellent properties, which are extremely valuable for its coloring.
This method of suede is a classic, but now came up with a lot of new processing methods that give the finished material great practicality. What features have products from different types of suede?
Genuine suede
Natural suede is soft and velvety texture, as well as dull color.
Products made of it can be washed in soapy water, but not rubbed or twisted. Rinse after washing, things are advised in a solution of glycerin with water in a consistency of 0.5 to 1.
Drying clothes can be in the unfolded state, and not suspended, as is usually done. You can iron the product only from the side of the lining, and the creases on it can be simply steamed.
With laser treatment
It is necessary to care for things with laser processing as well as things from natural suede, but the material itself is somewhat unusual. Due to the special treatment, suede acquires a characteristic luster, which can be confused with dusting.
It is interesting that such skin treatment makes the material more resistant to moisture and sudden temperature changes, and most importantly, small dust particles and hairs become practically invisible on it.
The cost of suede with laser processing is almost the same as that of natural suede.
From spandex suede
Since the products from natural suede are quite whimsical and impractical, many people prefer to choose clothes from such material, which resembles suede only by external indicators. One of these is spandex.
It is a synthetic material, which is characterized by elasticity and softness, and by its properties it resembles natural leather. Due to the nature of the material, this fabric is called stretch chamois. It absorbs moisture poorly and, because of its elasticity, significantly extends the service life of the product.
Fashion trends
Regarding women's suede coats, we can say that the designers this season decided to diversify the range of outerwear of this type as much as possible.
In a fashion juicy shades of red, pink and green, as well as the more classic black, gray, brown and sand. The most popular models are the following.
With hood
Ideal for cold but dry season. Often the hood in such models is finished with natural fur, which makes the coat more warm and stylish. Quite often, the edge of the hood is small and coincides with the pile on the inside of the product.
It is interesting that such models are often chosen by very young persons who do not particularly like to wear hats. The softness and good quality suede hood "makes" to warm even those who, in spite of the cold, always sought for beauty and comfort.
With smell
Such models are chosen more often by older ladies, as well as those who want to hide excessive volumes of the silhouette. An integral part of each such model is a belt, which gives the figure some sophistication and femininity.
Coats of this cut look good in different lengths - and shortened, and elongated, and medium length. Young girls can also choose such a model, she will decorate absolutely every young lady.
Basky
These coats are often chosen by girls who want to visually add volume to the hips. This model always gives femininity and elegance to the image due to the slightly flared hem.
It is interesting that the Basque itself can even have an asymmetrical form, giving the product originality. Often, the lower part of the coat may be different layering, and not the usual Basque in its classical sense.
How to choose
Natural suede is very expensive, so unscrupulous manufacturers often try to pass off suede for what it really is not. When choosing a coat of real suede, you should pay attention to:
1. The reverse side of the material - it should not be fabric.
2. The structure of the material - in its natural form, it will have creases, defects and bald spots obtained as a result of processing.
3. Pile suede - it should be soft and almost invisible. If you hold your finger on the natural pile - the color of the product will change.
Real suede absorbs water well, so if there are dark spots at the place of ingress of moisture - a coat is real.
What to wear
Suede is a material that is exclusively combined only with things created from other natural materials.
Demi-season and short coat models are best combined with high-heeled shoes or half boots. More elongated and warm models look perfect with classic leather boots or jackboots.
The coat of medium and short length goes well with jeans and woolen dresses. Low-run boots will also be relevant in this case.
The worst with this type of coat combines flared types of pants, although many designers find this option acceptable.
Stylish images
The final feature of any image is the right bag. In the case of a suede coat, an accessory made of the same material would be an ideal option. Well, if the bag will be combined in color with a coat.
It is interesting that this version of outerwear is usually worn without a hat. The neck is covered from a cold wind by a silk cloak, which is combined in hue with shoes.
