Choosing a mink coat
Mink coats of different lengths: short, long and knee-length options
The length of fur products is very variable. You can look at the catalogs of the models presented on the trading platform on the Internet or try on the style you like in the store.
When choosing the appropriate length, you should pay attention to the following features:
- Short fur clothing provides comfort and makes you look younger
- The average length of the model will add sophisticated elegance to a woman’s silhouette.
- The maximum length to the ankle looks simply luxurious
When purchasing a short mink coat with a turn-down hood, you must take into account the features of winter clothing. When purchasing a short fur coat to the middle of the waist, you need to prepare for the fact that in cold weather the question of increased insulation with the help of thick trousers will arise.
A short fur coat looks very extravagant, fashionable, and flirty. A variety of styles will help you choose exactly the option that will highlight the dignity of the female figure. A short model of fur clothing is suitable for slender women of average height. A short sheepskin coat will look bad on a girl who is too tall. He will look skimpy. This figure is more likely to be suited to medium-length winter clothing, which will successfully hide long stature.
The “waist-length” model will make a full figure look square and “heavy”. Only some short styles are perfect for “curvy ladies”. Girls with a full figure can choose medium-length fur clothes. It will visually “stretch” the silhouette and hide volumes.
Mink coats with a hood of universal length to the knee are suitable for almost all women, regardless of build. This is a vivid example of comfortable, warm, beautiful winter clothing.

The average length of winter clothing is important in those regions where winters are very harsh. By purchasing a mid-knee mink coat, you can count on a beautiful appearance, comfort and warmth throughout the winter season.
A long, straight mink coat with a turn-down hood will hide all the imperfections of your figure and make it slimmer. A large, voluminous hood will help hide too broad shoulders. A model flared at the bottom will hide full hips. This style is well suited for women with larger clothing sizes. Long fur products provide excellent protection even from the most severe frosts, and they also look simply irresistible.
Considering the fact that not every woman can afford the maximum length, it is beneficial to choose a short option that will fit well on the figure.

Character traits
Some buyers are scared by the name of an expensive mink coat, but it is only conditional. The balloon style is very practical and suitable for girls with the most unexpected figures. This model of fur clothing can be recognized very easily, since it has its own characteristic features.
A distinctive feature of the balloon model is the flared bottom, which looks very voluminous. And most importantly, the bottom of the hem tapers, creating the appearance of an ordinary balloon. To make such a fur coat look more symmetrical, the sleeves in it, as a rule, also have a voluminous cut. As for the length, it usually almost covers the knees.

If you have a slim waist, you can emphasize this important accent with a leather or lacquer strap. He can add some zest to your image. Tall and thin girls can also wear fur coats of the balloon model, which will only give its owner more youth and fragility, as in the photo.
Models of mink coats with a hood: trapezoid, bat and butterfly
Every representative of the fairer sex should remember that a fur product in any case should fit the figure. The pursuit of a super fashionable style sometimes leads to disastrous results.
When choosing fur outerwear, you need to consider the following aspects:
- Price
- Style
- Length
- Type of fur
- Practicality
- Convenience
A huge selection of models of natural mink coats with a hood will satisfy even the most demanding fashionista. At the same time, there are some rules that should not be neglected when choosing winter clothes made from natural fur.
It is not recommended to purchase a mink product several sizes larger in order to wear it over three sweaters “for warmth” in winter. Clothes made of fur a couple of sizes larger can make even a very slender girl look shapeless and obese.
Also, fur coats purchased one size smaller will not look good. This is not a knitted dress or jeans, but outerwear. In order for an expensive fur product to look decent, it must be chosen taking into account the individual characteristics of the figure.
Choosing a model according to your figure will not be difficult. Below are the most popular styles:
A mink coat with a hood and a trapezoid cut will fit perfectly on any figure. Slightly flared at the bottom, adjacent to the hips, this model is suitable for both overweight women and slender girls. This style can be short, knee-length or maximum length. It looks great in all of these options. The short version is good for thin girls. Women who are “in the body” need to pay attention to the length to the knee or to the ankle.
A mink coat with a hood of the classic bat model has long received well-deserved recognition among the fair sex. This model is versatile, beautiful, and comfortable. It can perfectly suit a slender woman, and also hide the flaws of a full figure well. The bat model is loved by all age categories of fashionistas. This style of any fur looks elegant, and short shiny mink fur gives the product a special exclusive look.
Mink coats with a hood of the original butterfly model are rapidly taking leading positions in the list of the most popular fashion styles. A distinctive feature of this model is the strongly flared lower part, which is decorated with transverse fur plates. The butterfly sleeves are also flared. This gives the entire fur product an unusual and extravagant look. The “butterfly” will successfully hide all the imperfections of the figure. This explains the fact that the popular style is worn with pleasure by very young girls, as well as ladies of “respectable age”. Any fashionista in a short fur coat of this cut will look unusually romantic and feminine.
Styles
When buying a mink coat, first of all, you pay attention to its quality and cost. However, an equally important factor is the choice of style of fur product. Thus, the classic style never becomes outdated regardless of any fashion trend. This model at any time emphasized the special femininity and position of women in society. In addition, the classic is suitable for ladies with any figure, according to reviews.

Recently, the balloon model has gained particular popularity. Now you can find it in almost all specialized stores. The new style of fur product is sewn according to the example of the previously popular women's skirt. This model does not have a “ragged” hem along the bottom line, and also has a smoothly rounded neckline that merges with the shelf, as can be seen in the photo.
Straight mink coats with a hood and models with a wide belt
Straight models of long mink coats with a hood look organic on almost any figure:
This is a classic that has been proven over the years. It looks elegant in any color scheme. A black fur coat will visually reduce your curvaceous figure. Light fur looks very feminine and will highlight a slender silhouette. It is preferable to buy straight-cut fur coats of medium length. They fit well and are comfortable to wear.
A mink coat with a wide belt and a large hood is suitable for a woman of any height:
This style emphasizes the silhouette, placing emphasis on the hood that lies beautifully on the shoulders. This model will visually reduce tall height. For obese women, this option is also quite acceptable. You just need to be careful when choosing a belt. It is better to choose a belt that is not too wide so as not to focus attention on the waistline. Dark fur color will also help hide excessive roundness of the figure.
Transverse mink coats with a large turn-down hood have recently become a hit of sales:
It is very easy to distinguish this style from others by the location of the fur plates. The strips of fur are connected in such a way that they lie horizontally rather than vertically. Strips with different fur treatments are often used. The cross section made of trimmed and long fur looks beautiful. These models with horizontal plates of different colors look very avant-garde. These styles are suitable for women who are not afraid to stand out from the crowd and attract close attention.
A variety of models will help any woman find exactly the style in which she will feel confident and free.
What to wear with a mink coat
Models with a flared hem gathered at the bottom can be worn with narrow long skirts and trousers, as well as with medium-length straight or pencil-style skirts. The balloon model is for women and girls with a slim figure. Only narrow skirts of medium length, revealing the line of the legs, and elegant winter shoes, chosen in the same tone or a little darker, would be appropriate with it. For such mink coats, shoes with high and medium heels, short ankle boots or classic boots to mid-calf are suitable. A bag-bag or soft clutch, fashionable this season, will complete the look.
The balloon fur coat emphasizes the grace and fragility of the female figure even in winter. Such fur models are best suited for creating a fashionable, elegant look, so accessories and clothing should be selected appropriately.
Mink coats with a hood made of lynx, silver fox and sable fur
Transverse mink coats with a large turn-down hood have recently become a hit of sales:
It is very easy to distinguish this style from others by the location of the fur plates. The strips of fur are connected in such a way that they lie horizontally rather than vertically. Strips with different fur treatments are often used.
The cross section made of trimmed and long fur looks beautiful. These models with horizontal plates of different colors look very avant-garde:
These styles are suitable for women who are not afraid to stand out from the crowd and attract close attention.
A mink coat with a spotted lynx hood looks very stylish:
This finish will go well with any color of the main fur. The only exception is the blue mink. A scribe's hood will look better with such fur, while an extravagant lynx will introduce an imbalance into the overall style of the fur product.
The spotted hood looks beautiful on mink coats in black, brown, beige, and white. This combination looks quite harmonious.
Mink coats with luxurious silver fox hoods look very impressive:
The hood-collar made of this fur adds special charm and solidity to them. A woman's face framed by long fur looks extremely attractive. Silver fox will go well with black, white, beige, brown, and gray mink. The lush fur of the hood and the smooth fur of the fur coat make up an original ensemble that will appeal to any representative of the fairer sex. This model is well suited for women of any age category.
A mink coat with a hood made of luxurious sable is so solid and presentable that any woman will look like a queen in it:
Sable is rightfully considered the most noble of all types of fur. It is so beautiful that leading fashion designers of outerwear give preference to this type of fur when it is necessary to emphasize the noble sophistication of a rich finish.
A hood made of sable fur will perfectly complement the “mink” of any shade.
Features of choosing fur
Now that we have dealt with the main types of trapezoid style, it is worth paying attention to the fur version in which this style is most advantageous. Of course, the main favorites in this style are the trapezoidal mink fur coat and the trapezoidal mouton fur coat, that is, options with short and rather smooth fur. A trapezoid beaver fur coat also looks good. But furs with a long pile such as silver fox in the trapezoid version are rarely used - large fur in itself in combination with a trapezoid will make any figure spherical.
Perhaps the trapezoid mink fur coat is the most sought after on the market today. A beautiful noble mink in combination with a rather romantic and sometimes frivolous trapezoid style can give a girl the image of an expensive, self-confident queen, who is not alien to feminine weaknesses and tenderness. A trapeze mink fur coat with a hood in this case would be especially logical - a model with a hood gives the girl a mysterious look.
A trapezoid fur coat made of mouton is another very popular combination of well-chosen fur and style. In this case, the mouton, which is not rich in itself, acquires additional luxury, because in the case of a trapezoid it becomes a lot! This is especially true for the “dress” style model. Such a mouton model, perhaps complemented by a hood with an insert of another, fluffier fur, will make you a real princess.
What to wear with a trapeze
As you can see, the trapezoid style is quite diverse and therefore a win-win - depending on the length, it suits girls of almost any height and parameters. This also leaves an imprint on clothes with accessories that match the trapeze. So, under an affordable trapezoid fur coat made of mink or mouton of medium or short length, all kinds of skirts or tight trousers will suit. For a short A-line fur coat dress, skirts and leggings are also suitable, but if possible, the skirt should not be much longer than the fur coat.
As for boots, there is also a great choice. Of course, heels of various heights and configurations look very good with a trapeze, especially a short one. A short trapeze with high stiletto boots is especially good. Over the knee boots are, in principle, a universal option for short mink models, judging by the fashion show catalogs. For a long trapeze, boots with low wedges would also be appropriate. The only thing that this style of footwear does not accept is low, shapeless boots without a heel - so everyone’s favorite UGG boots will not work here.
And, of course, don’t forget about the handbag, which in the case of a trapezoid should be especially neat and stylish. A large tote bag or suitcase will ruin all attempts to create a complete feminine look.
To summarize, the trapezoid style is created for a confident, but at the same time romantic and feminine girl who is not afraid to emphasize her femininity, and at the same time skillfully hides flaws, turning them into advantages.
Mink coats of different colors with a hood: brown, gray, graphite and mahogany
When choosing fur products, you first need to decide on the color. This process is not easy, but an expensive thing is not bought for one day.
Below is a list of popular colors:

This color is chosen by women who do not want to buy too light a shade of fur and categorically reject dark colored fur coats. Graphite color is perfect for almost all women. A face framed by a dark gray hood will look noble and sophisticated. “Graphite” of any model looks fashionable and stylish.
A brown mink coat with a hood looks organic and natural. This color has been popular for decades. This is a classic mink color. Brown fur will add a touch of touching femininity to a blonde's face, while the dark skin of brunettes will look golden and youthful. Dark brown color visually reduces the figure, so this color is very suitable for ladies with curvy figures.
A light gray mink coat with a voluminous hood is suitable for brunettes, brown-haired women, and red-haired women. Girls with light brown hair against a gray background will not look so impressive. They should choose a fur coat with a bluish tint, then it will perfectly highlight their hair color and delicate skin. Light fur coats always look elegant. This color will especially suit young girls; they will look unusually feminine. For more mature ladies, a hood made of gray fur is not very desirable; it can make the face look more faded and “add” years to the woman.
Mink coats with a deep mahogany hood are strikingly different from ordinary brown coats. This shade has the noble luxury of rare fur. Any model in mahogany color looks stunningly elegant; chocolate color with a deep dark tint will win the heart of any woman. When purchasing mahogany fur, you can safely count on the fact that it will remain as bright and beautiful for many years. This shade is surprisingly practical and also extremely beautiful.
