Although people have not lived in the Stone Age for a long time, they still kill animals in order to sew clothes from their fur and skins. The fashion for using natural fur as a material for sewing fur coats, vests, hats and other things eventually led to the fact that some animals, especially beautiful and in demand in the bloody craft, such as sable, found themselves on the verge of extinction. That is why today the trend is not natural skins, but their high-quality analogues - synthetic eco-furs.
Features of artificial sable fur
Like any other material, synthetic sable fur has positive and negative qualities. The advantages include:
- the fact that in the process of creating a fur coat, not a single living creature suffers;
- low price for synthetic products compared to natural materials;
- ease of care and the ability to wash clothes in a regular machine;
- the fact that artificial sable will not be eaten by real moths;
- low weight of the finished product.
Among the undeniable disadvantages are:
- greater thermal conductivity and breathability, in other words, it can be cold in such a fur coat;
- products made from eco-fur retain their presentable appearance much less;
- faux fur is very electrified and attracts dust and small debris.
Rules for choosing synthetic fur
For those who are accustomed to wearing outerwear made from natural sable and other fur-bearing animals, it will not be easy for them to switch to synthetics at first. It is worth remembering that it is worth it and the less natural fur is bought, the fewer animals are killed for its production. The following tips will help you choose a new synthetic sable fur coat:
- It is necessary to decide on the style in advance. Despite the fact that in 2019, oversized voluminous models are at the peak of popularity, they are not suitable for many women. For those who in most cases drive their own car, shortened models are suitable. For girls who might freeze outside, longer and more insulated fur coat styles are better suited.
- You need to think about how often the product will be worn. If a warm and comfortable fur coat is already in your wardrobe, the new product may be slightly unsuitable for harsh winters, but incredibly beautiful. If you have nothing else to choose from to replace your outerwear, you need the most wear-resistant and practical models.
- Choose fur that suits your body type. Sable is considered a universal fur suitable for any girl. It is not as voluminous as the Arctic fox and not as smooth as the mink.
What to wear with an eco-sable fur coat
Sable fur is primarily a classic and discreet outerwear model. For those who want something modern and more youthful, it’s not worth looking at sable, even if it’s artificial.Basic wearing rules depend on the length and color of the product:
- for young and active girls, shortened models with 3/4 sleeves with a stand-up collar or shallow hood are suitable;
- ladies of age and body size should opt for products made of eco-fur in sable style of medium length with a classic “A” silhouette;
- The “bat” models look interesting and unusual, but they are only suitable for tall and slender girls.
Important! The main rule of wearing fur coats is that the underwear should not peek out from under the fur.
It’s easy to choose shoes to go with a faux fur coat. Classic models can be complemented with stiletto heels and neat flat boots. However, those who are not afraid to experiment may find more daring combinations to their taste.
