The warm material is ideal for making an autumn plaid coat for women. Advantages of cashmere: light, soft, yet strong and durable.

How to choose the right plaid coat
Before buying, it is better to know some of the subtleties so that the thing will last more than one year.Compound... A quality coat should be made from wool and cashmere. And the more wool is in the composition, the more durable it will be.
Convenience... To understand if the outer garment is sitting on you correctly, raise your hands while trying on, tilt forward. In wallpaper cases, nothing should hinder your movements.
Measure on a sweater. Better on a thick sweater. It is unlikely that you will have to wear a coat over a thin T-shirt or T-shirt, in this case you risk choosing the wrong size.
Silhouette. Remember, even if you choose to be oversized, your clothes should not hang in a bag.
To keep it warm
Even on cold days, you want to be stylish, but few people want to freeze. There are some tricks to pairing a plaid coat for comfortable, chill-free walks. Layering. Multilayer images are now more relevant than ever, so you can safely put on a thin down jacket under the bottom.
Warm coat. Choose a model with an already insulated seamy side.

We really like fashionable already recent years five Clothes in cage, and we have already told, and today we will talk about what to wear with the incredibly popular autumn and winter 2019-2020 plaid coat.
But first, a little theory
Who suits a coat in a cage
In principle, a plaid coat suits everyone - whether thin, or full, or tall, or not. The main thing is to choose the right size and contrast of this very cell.
If you can be called thin (we will not call you that either in the eyes or behind the eyes - only you You can call yourself that), and you set yourself the task of visually expanding the silhouette, then a coat in a large and contrasting cage will suit you.
A short coat is suitable for a slender and high coat - it "cuts" the silhouette and visually reduces its length.
If you want to use clothes, on the contrary, visually stretch your silhouette, then we recommend you a coat with a not large and not very contrasting cage. Because according to the laws of the genre, a large and contrasting pattern visually expands the silhouette, a small and low-contrast pattern stretches it out.
Moreover, full girls and women are better off choosing a cage that resembles stripes from afar. In order to appear slimmer and taller in a checked coat, you can add a piece of clothing that forms vertical stripes on the figure, for example, a long scarf. Do not wrap it around your neck - its ends should hang freely.
By the way, about the scarf. We are often asked
How to choose the right scarf for a plaid coat
To be honest, 5-7 years ago we would have answered without hesitation that only a plain scarf would be suitable for a plaid coat, but now we will never answer for anything. Today, you can combine prints and patterns as you like, and the taboo was ordered to live long. All we dare to recommend is to choose a scarf and other accessories for your plaid coat so that these colors match or complement each other. For example, there is an orange thread in your plaid coat - feel free to take an orange bag or wear an orange scarf.
We also liked the idea with a scarf from faux fur
How to wear a black and white and gray check coat
Honestly, there is no clear list of things that will not fit at all / fit perfectly with a black and white plaid (or any other) coat. The only thing that can be a feature of a cell of this color is its monochrome. And this means that color accents can be on anything - on a bag, on shoes (and it does not matter at all which heels - high, medium, or. The main thing is that this very bag or pair of shoes was, as they say, statement- stylish, original, non-trivial.
Gray check coat or trench coat will perfectly complement the image where there are jeans, a skirt, a dress or trousers.

If your winter plaid coat has a collar and you have a yoke-neck sweater, you do not need to wear a scarf.
White sneakers and high-waisted cropped jeans are, of course, beautiful, fashionable, modern and with a twinkle, but bare ankles - why? Personally, we are definitely against this trend.
