A popular item in a modern women's wardrobe

Beige jacketAmong the many details that make up the wardrobe of a modern woman, the jacket, due to its versatility and practicality, occupies a special place.

What is unique about the jacket?

The shortened back length is the main, but not the only distinguishing feature of popular clothing. The interest of the fairer sex in the jacket is explained by the variety of its styles. Fashion designers manage to achieve this through different versions of individual parts of the product.

Cut

Depending on the characteristics of your figure, you can choose a narrow fitted style, as well as a loose-fitting product.

Length

Blue jacketWithout limiting themselves to the standard length of jackets (to the waist), stylists decided to experiment further and create shortened versions. The bottom cut of such models does not reach the waist line.

No less common is the style, the length of which almost reaches the middle of the thigh. At the same time, the elongated jacket remains shorter than the classic jacket.

Collar

Most products have a decorative detail for decorating the collar of clothing. But the presence of a collar is not necessary; styles that do not have them are no less popular.

Sleeve

Taking into account the situation, a woman can choose a classic long-sleeve option. For the warm season, products with three-quarter sleeves, short ones, or jackets without sleeves are more suitable.

Clasp

The clasp adds additional originality to the items. Various accessories are used for it: buttons (regular and decorative), zippers, brooches, hairpins. They can be arranged in one or two rows (on single-breasted and double-breasted products), the asymmetrical cut of the shelves and the same arrangement of fittings look interesting.

Finishing

For decoration, fashion designers use braid, cords, embroidery, lace inserts, etc.

What fabrics are jackets made from?

Long jacketInitially, thick woolen or knitted fabrics were used for sewing. Gradually, fashion designers discovered to fashionistas the advantages of jackets made of other materials: lightweight linen or cotton.

Today you can also buy jackets made of leather or silk, models made of lace or combined fabrics.

Popular types of jacket

A modern woman's wardrobe can contain several jackets at the same time. But no one will call their owner monotonous if their styles are not repeated. To do this, you need to purchase jackets of the following models.

Blazers

BlazerFor many, a blazer becomes a kind of badge of honor. This is no coincidence. After all, blazers are club jackets that indicate professional affiliation or membership in an interest group. Identical blazers are worn by students of a certain educational institution, employees of a major campaign, members of a golf or yachting club.

Blazers are quite laconic; decor is used to a minimum (for example, decorative cord for decoration).

The functionality of the blazer is achieved by using a special emblem with the name of the club, company or educational institution.

A distinctive feature of blazers is the use of metal fittings (buttons, zippers).

Bolero

A woman can transform her image with the help of a variety such as a bolero. This is the shortest version of jackets, the length of which does not reach the waist, but ends under the chest.

Boleros are not complemented with other details; pockets and button fastenings are not used when sewing these short jackets.

Reference! Bolero is a decorative option that is used with evening dresses that have open shoulders.
