Coat style and styles

In this article, I would like to talk more clearly about the different styles and styles of coats. Coats are usually worn in the cool season and in the summer, but for each season there is a different material structure. In winter and late autumn, denser fabric textures are preferred. Among the most popular are the following:

  • drape;
  • bike with pile;
  • wool;
  • cloth.

  • cashmere
  • velvet
  • jacquard
  • alpaca

  • denim
  • suede
  • Jersey.
