The fur coat of the “Butterfly” model is a fur product that has an average length (no more than a meter) and a very flared lower part thanks to transverse inserts. The mink butterfly has flared sleeves that create the silhouette of large wings. The upper part of the fur coat is framed by a hood or a round collar. This mink coat is quite unusual and original; it suits both young ladies and women of advanced age, since the loose cut covers all body defects, which is confirmed by numerous reviews. What is so good about a butterfly mink coat?

Stylish models
Classic mink coats
Classic always remains in fashion, and often for purely utilitarian reasons. A mink coat, especially from rare furs, is far from cheap, and therefore is designed to be worn for more than one season. Classic models will still be relevant in ten years, which means you can safely buy it for several seasons.
But the classic would not be so attractive if the designers did not add some piquancy to it. In the 2019-2020 season, this “spice” was the material from which the fur coat was sewn - elite mink fur, with an ideal selection of tones: golden, snow-white and gray.
Perhaps some may find such models boring and not reflective of their temperament. As they say - to each his own. But lovers of discreet and refined classics will certainly appreciate:
- high level of fur raw materials (starting from the “Lux” class);
- simple, flared and often cropped silhouettes;
- neat shoulder lines;
- stand-up collars and shawl collars;
- elite and unique tailoring, which allows you to visually hide the seams that do not create sharp transitions in color, and makes the coat tails flow (this technology can only be used when making a fur coat from mink or nutria).
Classic cross-cut mink coats will remain no less trendy. Their silhouette is somewhat reminiscent of a man's coat, and are equipped with slits on both sides. The seemingly simple style especially clearly demonstrates all the natural beauty and uniqueness of fur. Such fur coats are made from either whole fur or plucked or sheared fur.
However, if you are looking for a fur coat to wear every day, we recommend taking a closer look at short models. They are more practical, and at the same time no less warm. We suggest paying special attention to minimalist models that are simply created to highlight your femininity.
Retro-style fur coats are still at the peak of popularity. These exquisite fur products focus attention on your impeccable taste, and evoke thoughts of sophisticated ladies of the 40s and 50s.
For lovers of extravagance, we recommend paying attention to models made in the avant-garde style. Not every woman will decide on this style, but as practice shows, the avant-garde style suits most women.
Mink coats "bat"
Perhaps, if we consider the model itself, mink fur is the best option for sewing a bat fur coat. Sheared mink (which is what is most often used for this model) is ideal for a flowing silhouette and emphasizes its expressiveness. The model got its name due to the resemblance of the sleeves to bat wings. Bat fur coats are never long. Most often they only cover the buttocks, or reach the middle of the thigh. In a fur coat of this model, car-ladies will feel most comfortable.
Fur coats with ¾ sleeves
Slightly shortened sleeves have long been loved by fashionistas. And of course it will remain trendy in the winter of 2021. These stylish fur coats are named after the legendary Coco Chanel, although they are not products of this fashion house. The designers thus honored Coco’s genius by embodying the great couturier’s favorite style in a fur product. In addition to sleeves, the distinctive features of fur coats in the Chanel style were stand-up collars, a slightly flared style and, most often, a midi length. Chanel models are preferably made from uncut mink, natural color, cross cut.
It’s difficult to call fur coats with ¾ sleeves particularly comfortable for everyday wear. They are purchased for social events, complementing the sophisticated look with long leather gloves.
Mink coats "butterfly"
The extravagant “butterfly” style gives the luxurious mink coat a romantic and even flirtatious touch. The bow tie is another popular trend this year. The trapezoidal style and voluminous sleeves hide most of the imperfections of the figure, and therefore are recommended for women of most body types, and especially for ladies with a full body. Unlike Chanel fur coats, which have almost no decor, butterfly fur coats are decorated with fluffy collars, equipped with boas and other decorative details.
The finishing fur can match the tone of the fur coat, or vice versa - be contrasting. When sewing, sheared fur is most often used.
"Ballet"
Also worthy of attention is a model very similar to a “butterfly”, but made from fur that has not been sheared. The unique cut of this model will make the heart of a fashionista beat even faster. The mink skins on the back are sewn open, creating an irresistible, loosely flared style. This fur coat makes a special impression when you are on the move.
Fur coat with hood
There are more than enough models equipped with a hood. For mature and stylish ladies, a hood is generally an irreplaceable thing. After all, its presence allows you to preserve the styling, which is mercilessly crushed by the hat. It should be borne in mind that a hood is only permissible if the owner of the fur coat is past girlhood. For some reason, it is believed that wearing a fur coat with a hood is “not comme il faut” for young girls.
A fur coat with a trapezoidal shape and a double-sided hood (that is, fur is used both outside and inside) looks especially stylish.
Combined
But the combined models are shown to young girls. Unusual and extravagant, sophisticated and non-trivial, combined models are sure to attract attention. Leather, knitted, suede and even lace inserts visually “lighten the silhouette” and emphasize the blossoming beauty of their owner.
Cleopatra
A more elongated version of flared mink coats. The most common length is mid-calf. The style is not cut at the waist, small flares are formed from the shelves and from the back. This fur product is assembled from various fur skins, differing in size and quality. The hem and lower part of the sleeves are often trimmed with the paws and tails of animals. For women who do not strive for standard solutions, this model will be the best option.
The cost of fur coats of this model
As for fur coats of other models, for “Butterflies” the price depends on the type of fur and the size of the product. It goes without saying that flared styles will cost their customers a little more than straight or fitted ones. On average, the price of a fur coat of this midi-length style starts from 40 thousand rubles. True, this is for a product sewn not from whole skins, but from pieces. Better quality outerwear can cost 70 thousand rubles. In this case, we are talking about mink fur; it is from this that flared fur coats are most often found.
What colors are relevant?
Despite the fact that in the sale of fur salons you can always choose mink fur products of various colors, nevertheless, brown, white and black classics will always be relevant and in demand. Whether the fur is dyed or natural, the fur coat does not lose anything in quality. Ready-to-wear fur coats can be made in natural gray, blue shades or in radical crimson, poisonous green tones. Fashion designers even widely use a combination of different, diametrically opposed colors in one fur coat. The photo shows an example of such original outerwear.
Tips for choosing a fur coat “Butterflies”
In principle, looking at how a butterfly fur coat looks on different women in the photo, we can conclude that it is suitable for any type of figure. It’s just that tall and slender ladies are more suited to elongated models, and plump women, who are naturally endowed with voluminous shapes, are more suitable for clothes that do not reach the knees. However, in any case, such a fur coat should not be too short, otherwise it will look ridiculous.

Furs of different animals in one product
A real squeak of fashion is the combination of a number of different furs. This approach is used not only in finishing the collar and sleeves, but even the global use of skins of different textures in different parts of the fur coat. For example, a mink coat is complemented by a hood made of sable or mouton.
Widely used in mink coats, the furs of such animals are:
- Arctic fox;
- Fox;
- Sable;
- Mouton.
Such combinations give the fur coat a more luxurious look, and the cost of the product becomes even lower.
Who is it suitable for?
The butterfly, according to customer reviews, is a universal and very popular model. To make the right choice, you need to try on almost the entire range of fur coats for comparison. Then you can decide on your priority and understand which of the proposed styles is exactly yours. The feeling in the fur coat that you put on should be very pleasant, so that you don’t have the desire to take it off. In terms of weight, high-quality mink coats are not very heavy, but they cannot be called weightless either. If it is difficult to make a final choice on the same day, it is better to “sleep” with this thought and make a decision the next day.
The Butterfly fur coat is sold mainly in brown tones. These shades are suitable for dark-haired and dark-eyed women. Blondes look good in light mink coats, pastel, and cream shades.
The cut of the Butterfly mink fur coat is made according to the pattern of the widest trapezoid. The bottom line of the product can reach three and a half meters in width. Due to the fact that this model requires a large number of mink skins, its cost is often significantly higher than other similar products. It is very important that the quality of the fur is good, that it is elastic, then the coattails will fall beautifully. Like other mink coats, the Butterfly can be made from pieces. Then its price becomes an order of magnitude lower than from whole skins. The most expensive coat is considered to be a fur coat made from natural white or blue mink.
Shoes are suitable for this type of clothing with different heel heights. Due to the liberal style, you can wear a fur coat with classic clothes and even skinny jeans.

What to wear with butterfly fur coats
In order for a woman’s look with flared outerwear to be harmonious, you need to combine such a fur coat with narrow trousers or a short skirt that does not protrude from under the outerwear. As a last resort, a narrow pencil skirt is suitable, but not flared, long or wide clothes. The combination of a butterfly fur coat with high boots gives a special chic to the look.
Flared and trapezoidal fur coats, called “Butterfly”, have earned popularity among ladies of all ages and body types. They allow you to create very feminine and stylish fashionable looks for everyday life and special occasions.
Length
This season, long fur coats cannot be called trendy. The maximum length that fashion designers allowed themselves at fashion shows is up to the middle of the ankle. But basically, all fur coats are of a shortened type, or of medium length.
Long fur coats are slowly becoming a thing of the past. Which cannot but please ladies with curvy figures, who have always been recommended to wear fur coats no lower than the knee.
Mink coats for plus size people
Both thin and plump young ladies want to wear a fashionable fur coat. A fur coat will ideally hide all imperfections; the main thing is to choose the right style. First of all, forget about long, floor-length fur coats; second, pay attention to trapezoidal fur coats with flowing tails.
Clothes and shoes to wear with mink coats
A mink coat can tell a lot about its owner. Especially about her mastery of style, and her ability to flawlessly select clothes and accessories to match her fur. This is not an easy process, but, alas, there is no room for error. Otherwise, the image for which you bought yourself a luxurious fur coat will be destroyed.
Shoes in this case are of paramount importance. Low-quality and cheap shoes are unacceptable and will easily destroy the entire image you were striving for. Choose high boots of a contrasting color, with heels or stilettos, under your fur coat. And if the fur coat has a shortened style, then it would not be a bad idea to purchase boots with a massive top. Whatever shoes you choose, they should be of good quality.
Hats. Hats are necessary if the fur coat does not have a hood. Although... if you use it only as decoration, then a hat, bonnet, scarf or stole will definitely not hurt you.
If you have chosen a fur hat, then under no circumstances combine a fur coat and a hat made of identical fur. Knitted (so simple in appearance) hats will be more than appropriate.
Hats will help complement the image of a romantic person.
Scarves and stoles will look organic if you learn how to tie them beautifully.
Cloth
Surprisingly, mink coats can be combined with almost all the elements of clothing we are familiar with. The main thing is that they match in style. If most of your wardrobe consists of dresses, skirts or even blinders, pay attention to models that are not very short. But in an ensemble with trousers, waist-length models look best.
Accessories
The bag always spoke a lot about the owner. And we are not even talking about the style and shape, but about the material of manufacture. Along with mink coats, you should not wear bags of low quality and third-rate materials. Textiles, plastic or eco-leather are incompatible with mink. But high-quality leather or suede bags will complement the ensemble and look organic.
You should not buy bags that in most cases you will carry on your shoulder. Otherwise, in the places where the fur coat and the bag come into contact, bald spots or creases will form quite quickly.
Choose a fur coat and bag made in the same style. The bag should not be large or medium in size. An excellent accessory for a fur coat can be a small backpack, tote, clutch or bag with two handles.
When buying a mink coat, be sure to pay attention to the quality of the fur, the quality of the fur coat itself, and ask for the appropriate certificates. Mink is faked, and they do it so skillfully that it will be difficult for an uninitiated person to identify a fake. Therefore, we recommend that you do not look for a cheaper option, but make purchases only in stores that value their reputation and have been known for many years.
