What to wear and combine with a women's drape coat?
The stores offer a huge number of fashionable colors and styles of different lengths. In order to create a stylish, perfect look, you need to complement the look with a headdress and various accessories.
Headdress
Headdress must be selected taking into account the shape of the face. It should match the color scheme of outerwear. The hat should be chosen to match the coat or in a contrasting shade.
Suitable for drape clothing:
- knitted hats;
- berets made of felt and velor (option with a visor is possible);
- scarves or headscarf draped over the head (snood);
- hats with brims.
Don't be afraid to experiment and you will definitely find a suitable option!
Gloves and scarf
Gloves can be made of leather, velor or velvet. Options decorated with embroidery, various rhinestones and beads look great. Long gloves should be chosen with 3/4 sleeves.
Scarf can be made from any material except silk. There are many options for wearing: throw it over your shoulders or wrap it around your neck. Scarves with large checks and bright prints will go well with plain outerwear. If, on the contrary, the coat is rich in various inserts and decor, then the scarf needs discreet, calm shades.
Gloves and scarf should match the color of the headdress.
Shoes
Shoes should be chosen based on style.
The short, fitted model will go well with: high boots with or without heels, ankle boots, massive heavy boots. Classic shoe options, including wedges, are also suitable for a straight, loose fit. A knee-length coat can be worn with sneakers.
Shoes can be leather or suede.
Coats are not worn with shoes or other summer footwear.
Bags

Choose the shade of the bag that is adjacent to the shade of the coat or completely contrasting.
Small bag options will fit most styles. They can be on a chain and with various decorations.
Main rule: all elements must be combined in style.
