In our country, a down jacket is the most popular outerwear in the autumn-winter period. However, you should not wear it exclusively with trousers and jeans. Such clothes can be safely combined with feminine skirts and dresses, while looking very attractive. Moreover, in the last season, layering of the image has become a real trend.
Down jacket with dress
Some girls think that wearing a down jacket on a dress is bad manners. In reality, designers offer many options for looks for every day, where stylish outerwear goes well with equally fashionable outfits. The main thing is that these things are combined not only in color, but also in style and shape. An important point is the correct selection of shoes for your everyday look.
Basic rules of combination
Stylists recommend that women who cannot imagine themselves without feminine outfits follow generally accepted rules for combining clothing. This will help you achieve the perfect combination of a stylish look and make the girl as attractive as possible:
- We leave the sporty style for weekends (the choice should be a simple and light style of outerwear, neutral shades, the absence of large decorative elements, patch pockets, rivets and other decorations is welcome);
- short models are the best choice (women who adore business style and straight-cut midi dresses should pay attention to short models of down jackets such as jackets or short coats; they look best with dresses, but do not effectively protect against frosty air);
- warm textured tights (you can’t wear thin nylon in winter, it’s harmful to health, you should give preference to warm tights with a lot of den, preferably with a textured pattern);
- outerwear should cover the hem of the dress (this is an ideal combination; for such a combination it is better to choose long coat models so that they are sure to cover a product of any length);
- visibility of the dress is no more than 10 cm (if the dress peeks out from under the down jacket, the fabric should be visible no more than 5-10 cm, then the product will not attract much attention);
- an elongated down jacket with over the knee boots (the ideal combination would be an elongated down jacket covering a dress and high boots; the look is feminine and attractive).
Important! Choose both products that fit strictly to your figure. When trying on, you should make sure that the down jacket effectively emphasizes all the advantages of the silhouette.
How to arrange with other elements
Down outerwear is always stylish and comfortable. Women should choose different types of shoes to highlight their beauty and individuality even on the coldest days.
For example, classic boots with a wide top to mid-calf will look great with a down jacket. If the winter weather outside is warm, low shoes or fashionable ankle boots are suitable. If you need to be outside for a long time in the cold, the best choice would be comfortable and warm ugg boots.
Tights should be selected in accordance with the chosen dress. The color and style must strictly correspond to the style of the outfit. Fashion designers advise choosing dense and textured products that will become a bright detail in the image.
Important! Thin nylon is not appropriate in winter. You shouldn't risk your health for the sake of beauty.
Errors
The main mistake in choosing a down jacket for a dress is the discrepancy between its figure and color type of appearance. Outerwear should be selected in dark, discreet shades to effectively emphasize the beauty of the image. Depending on your appearance, it is better to choose:
- black;
- brown;
- burgundy;
- Navy blue;
- dark green or other subtle tones.
It would be best if the down jacket completely covers the dress, without leaving its hem visible. It is not allowed to wear short down jackets with long floor-length dresses, this is bad manners.
Stylish looks
The variety of models of down jackets in stores will make even an experienced fashionista confused. In the current fashion season, clothing designers insist on overt femininity. Therefore, you should choose fitted models with a well-drawn silhouette that emphasizes the main advantages of the female body.
A black down jacket to mid-thigh in combination with a sheath dress that does not peek out from under the hem, as well as wide boots with low heels will be an excellent option for a casual or business look. This set is very convenient and attractive.
A red down jacket and a short fitted dress hidden under outerwear go perfectly with high boots. The fur trim on the jacket collar adds a “zest” to the look.
A long down coat-dress combined with a midi outfit of various styles. This tandem looks impressive with stylish ankle boots and discreet accessories. You can even create a classic evening look for going out.
