Faux fur coat - Trend 2020-2021

Eco-friendliness and conscious consumption are one of the most important and even fashionable trends of this year . It affected not only food and everyday life, but also fashion.

Faux fur coats in natural shades

Can faux fur be an alternative to natural fur? What are its pros and cons? First things first.

The material of faux fur is acrylic polymer - a component with a complex chemical structure and composition. In fact, this is partly the same plastic, which under natural conditions takes many years to decompose. During the processing of such materials, a lot of waste is released, which affects the environment worse than the entire process of producing natural fur. So whether artificial fur coats are environmentally friendly is another question.

By the way : there is a way to create a natural fur coat without harming animals. The Max Mara brand has been using this method for several years. The essence of the technology: the hair from the animal is carefully cut and glued to the fabric. This fabric is then used to make a fur coat.

If we briefly go through the advantages of artificial fur coats, we can highlight the following ADVANTAGES:

1. They are cheaper than natural ones
   . You don’t need to invest a lot of money in such a fur coat, like in a natural one.
2. They are more diverse
   . Faux fur was not created to replicate natural fur. It can have a different texture, print or length - this is their charm and value.
3. They do not require such careful care
   . In a faux fur coat, you can easily ride the subway, get caught in the rain, wash it in a machine and not be afraid that the material will rub or begin to peel. But keep in mind that in the long term, natural fur is more wear-resistant.

But believe me, a natural product of an outdated style is not a guarantee of style. You can look fashionable in a faux fur coat, the main thing is to know how to wear it. We’ll talk further about how to do this correctly.

IMPORTANT : one of the disadvantages of faux fur is that it tends to become electrified. Because of this, this material attracts dust and debris more strongly, so you will have to wash your faux fur coat more often.

TOP 6 models of artificial fur coats

Now let’s look at the most current faux fur coats for 2020/2021: fashionable models, colors, prints, what to wear with faux fur coats.

No. 1 Straight fur coat

Straight fur coats are a universal option for different body types. They look organic with absolutely any clothing.

Stylish straight fur coat

When choosing a straight fur coat, pay attention to its length; it should not be too long.

No. 2 Cocoon fur coat

Cocoon fur coats resemble straight ones in their cut, but they have their own differences. Firstly, this model has a characteristic expansion in the hip area. Secondly, they most often have a slightly oversized cut.

The cocoon fur coat is very large and cozy, it can be safely used in multi-layered looks . But keep in mind that such a product can increase your size.

No. 3 Fur coat

The most versatile fur coat that can highlight the curves of the figure or even create them. Such fur coats are characterized by the presence of lapels in the chest area and a belt that beautifully follows the waist. This version of a faux fur coat is very feminine.

TIP : never and under no circumstances (unless you are an 80lvl fashionista) wear silk scarves with a granny print with a fur coat. They will not give you femininity, they will only “age” the onion. It is best to combine an artificial (and natural) fur coat with a basic hat.

A fur coat can be worn with anything and anywhere. It will look appropriate and stylish with trouser or skirt bottoms and different types of shoes.

No. 4 Short fur coat

A short fur coat is a great option if you don’t value precious warmth too much. It looks very stylish and beautifully emphasizes slender legs.

Cropped faux fur coats in everyday looks

Cropped fur coats also look good with different types and styles of clothing, but they are not complimentary to every body type.

No. 5 Fur coat with long pile

Some argue that fur coats with long piles are out of fashion. However, fashion reports and street stylers prove to us that this is not so.

Bright and fashionable fur coats with long pile

TIP : when choosing a faux fur coat, pay attention to the features of your figure. If you are the owner of voluminous shapes , pay attention to short-haired smooth fur, since a long and voluminous pile will increase your size . Fur coats with horizontal stripes also add volume to the figure. If this effect is undesirable for you, choose plain fur coats.

These fur coats are very stylish and impressive. Yes, you can’t wear such a product to the office, but for a walk or a fashionable get-together - why not?

Game of colors

Fashion designers did not limit themselves to classic colors, deciding to please the girls with unusual new items.

In general, nothing, only the product was painted bright green.

The designer's unexpected idea was called a breakthrough in the fashion world. Nowadays, rich shades are a stylish and current trend, which is actively used by famous couturiers. In new collections of famous brands you can find fur coats painted in purple, bright yellow, orange and plum tones.

If you are used to attracting hundreds of admiring glances, and do not accept monochromatic and boring outfits, then buy a fur product with an animalistic pattern. Natural prints created by nature itself will perfectly fit into an urban look for daily outings.

The most popular models in winter 2021 will be fur coats in the following colors: zebra, leopard, tiger and snakeskin. Such products were presented in the collections of the brands Alexander Wang, Versace, etc.

Interesting faux fur coats with unusual prints

If the animal pattern is not to your liking, then pay attention to equally interesting models with other patterns. For example, designers offer girls products made from smooth fur with stripes, checks, and romantic bows scattered over the entire surface of the fur coat. Which option you prefer is up to you to decide. But 100% in such outerwear you will not go unnoticed.

A fur coat with an original print is the main highlight of the look. Therefore, it is better to choose a plain outfit or jeans with a pullover in a similar color palette. Do not overload the bow with a large number of unnecessary parts.

For bright girls, bright patchwork

Connoisseurs of eclecticism and a certain gypsy style will love patchwork fur products. They look unexpected, bright and original. Bright and catchy colors will help create a sophisticated look in a romantic or urban style. Accessorize your patchwork fur coat with a leather belt, a stylish neckerchief, or an unusual hat or cap. The final element of the trendy outfit will be an elegant tote bag or an accessory on an elegant chain.

Oversized fur coats

Judging by what the couturiers showed in their new collections, voluminous fur coats are still in trend. At the same time, designers delight girls with a variety of cut options. At fashion shows one could see loose-fitting, trapezoidal products with increased volume in the shoulder area.

To add even more character to a fur coat, fashion designers use long-pile fur to sew it. Another enhancing feature was the huge collars. The couturiers used any available methods to visually enlarge the products: spherical models up to mid-thigh length, fur coats with an imitation cape, etc.

Voluminous fur outerwear is best combined with elegant shoes and accessories. When buying an oversize fur coat, remember one of the main rules - you cannot overload the image with a large number of details. And yes, don’t overdo it with the dimensions of the top product! Everything should be in moderation, and volumes are no exception.

Models with a belt

1 of 2

Faux fur coats with an emphasis on the waistline will add grace to your look. By emphasizing your slim figure, you can look feminine and original even in the cold season. A wide belt looks harmonious on outerwear made of short and long fur. Regardless of the cut of the product - wraparound or with buttons, a leather belt will in any case decorate a fur coat.

Stylists recommend wearing such models with gloves that match the color of the belt. Even short sheepskin coats can be belted. But do not forget that regularly wearing a belt will cause the fur in the waist area to press through over time. As a result, you will need to take more careful care of your fur coat or have to wear the belt all the time.

Unusual cut of fur coats

Don't want to be like everyone else? Do you dream of an original and unique fur coat? Then pay attention to products with an unusual cut.

A fur coat with an intricate cut will 100% add a “zest” to the outfit and fit harmoniously into the urban look.

Types of fur in faux fur coats

The manufacturing technique greatly influences the appearance of faux fur and its price. It happens:

1. Double-sheet and woven
   . Faux fur is placed between two woven fabrics. Using the three-strand method, the pile is secured at the top and bottom. After fastening, the fur is cut with a special knife, resulting in two finished fabrics. Some manufacturers of such fur coat the main fabric with a special glue, so that the pile holds tighter and does not fall off.
2. Knitted
   . To produce such fur, special flat and circular knitting machines are used. In the knitting method, fur is either woven into a knitted structure in tufts or knitted in loops, which are then cut to form a fluffy structure. To secure the fur to a knitted base, a special product is used, which also makes the material waterproof.
3. Tufted
   . Using a tufting machine, the ground fabric is stitched with pile, resulting in loops. Then these loops are cut and dense fur is obtained. At the final stage of creating such fabric, the pile is leveled and combed out.
4. Glued
   . With this method, the faux fur is simply glued to the base. To create such material, a specially curled pile called chenille is used.

Calico or calico is most often used as the main fabric on which the pile is attached. The artificial pile itself can be created from acetate fiber, nitron, lavsan or nylon.

To imitate the structure of natural fur, manufacturers often use a material that gives different degrees of shrinkage. After heat treatment, they form a complex structure in which the axial hair and even down hairs can be seen. Of course, such artificial fur coats will not be cheap.

Faux fur coats in the collections of famous fashion houses

Many modern designers have begun to slowly abandon natural leather and fur and replace them with artificial materials. One of the first to make such a coming out was the Stella McCartney brand. The designer abandoned leather, fur, and even special glue that contained animal products.

After Stella McCartney, many famous fashion houses took the path of environmental friendliness:

• Furla;
• Versace;
• Michael Kors;
• Jimmy Choo;
• Armani;
• Vivienne Westwood;
• Calvin Klein.

Even the fashion house Gucci, which has always been a “lover” of fur and even created slippers from it, loudly announced in 2021 that it was abandoning natural fur. True, many of these brands have not abandoned the use of leather, which animals also do not voluntarily give to us.

BY THE WAY :
many mass market brands have also partially stopped using fur and its products to create their products. Such brands are H&M, Gap, Zara and Topshop.

Many luxury brands still produce fur products, which means they have to face a lot of criticism and significantly scale back their advertising campaigns. Among these fashion houses are Dior, D&G, Fendi, Saint Laurent and some others.

INTERESTING FACT : London Fashion Week has refused to present collections that use real fur.

Choosing and caring for faux fur

If you plan to wear a faux fur coat for several seasons, and not just play with it a few times, be careful. High-quality faux fur is soft and moderately elastic. It should hold tightly and not come out at the slightest mechanical impact. Good material will not be too cheap, keep this in mind.

TIP : if you plan to mercilessly use your faux fur coat (ride it on the subway, wear it often, and so on), do not forget about fur coats that are too long or, conversely, short. They either won’t heat up or will quickly lose their attractive appearance.

If you properly care for your faux fur item, it will retain its visual appeal and serve you for a long time.

Consider the following tips:

1. Don't wear a fur coat too often in the rain or snow .
2. Avoid exposing your fur coat to high temperatures . You should not dry it on a radiator or heater, as the artificial material is prone to ignition.
3. Wash your faux fur coat at a temperature not exceeding 40 degrees . It is best to use the delicate wash cycle.
4. Do not spin your fur coat in the washing machine.
5. Dry the product naturally in an upright position, do not use a dryer.
6. When the product is completely dry, comb it with a wide-tooth comb.

TIP: If your faux fur coat gets dusty, vacuum it. The product should be stored in a dark, dry and well-ventilated place.
