If you are a woman who is looking to stay warm but remain fashionable, there is no better item of clothing than a women’s wool coat. Not only are women’s wool coats warm in any kind of weather, but they are a beautiful, classic, and durable addition to your wardrobe that will always be right in style.
Women’s wool coats are comfortable and classic, and come in a variety of price points since they are sold at many different clothing stores. Wool is a naturally warm fabric that repels moisture and retains heat, and is a great choice for nearly any kind of winter weather.
There are many different styles of women’s wool coats. First is the pea coat, which is a military-inspired double-breasted style which generally comes with large buttons and sometimes a tie at the waist. These coats are classic and are never out of style. You can choose between regular length wool pea coats which fall to the hip, or the more modern cropped style which falls to your natural waist. Despite its military origin, many pea coats come in a very feminine design with a lot of decoration and larger cuffs than usual. Double breasted coats also have the added benefit of making someone look slimmer because the torso area is flattened out.
Classic women’s wool coats often have minimal decoration and fall to the knee, often coming with a tie belt which can be made of wool or another fabric. Pockets are set at the waist. This style works best when worn with high heels, and generally sits best on an hourglass figure. These classic wool coats are seamed at the waist and gives a nice curve to offset the bulk of the coat. Some classic coats feature higher pockets and a higher waist, which flatters the figure more than a lower-waisted coat, which is perfect for women who need some camouflage for their lower half.
Empire waist wool coats have buttons which end at the upper waist, which allows the fabric to swing from a higher point than usual. The high waist of this women’s wool coat will give you a feminine shape and camouflage a fuller figure. In addition, empire waist wool coats are often made of a thinner wool, which drapes better and complements any figure.
Women’s wool coats come in every color of the rainbow, and can be found as sturdy, or as thin, as you like. Sturdy women’s wool coats are warmer but may provide extra bulk to an outfit; thinner women’s wool coats are not as warm, but can be more flattering to the figure. In the winter, nearly every clothing store will stock at least one type of women’s wool coat, and there is bountiful shopping online as well. Sometimes you can get a great deal on coats if you shop after the season is over. With the right style, a women’s wool coat can be classic, timeless and elegant, and well worth the money.
