Your Padded Coat Guide: 6 Types And 23 Ideas

your padded coat guide 6 types and 23 ideas

Padded/puffer coats and jackets are perhaps the most popular items to wear during cold days, and today they are very trendy – every fashionista and celebrity is wearing them! Going to buy one but don’t know what to choose to look awesome? Don’t worry, this guide will help you choose a right model, filling, design and all the rest you may think of!

Filling

The filling maybe natural, which is down and feather, or synthetic, which is polyester. Remember that if you are buying a padded coat with natural filling, it should be at least 70 or 80% down, if there’s less, then it won’t keep you warm on cold winter days. Polyester padded coats are more lightweight, but you should consider its density. The denser the filling is, the warmer your coat will be.

Stitching

Stitching is necessary to keep the filling of your padded coat in place. If the stitches are too few, the filling may not stay in place, and if they are too many, the filling will get flat inside and will partly lose its warming up features. Prefer padded coats that come every 15 centimeters or a bit more.

Designs

The trendiest and edgiest lengths for today are midi and knee, and as for silhouettes, these are straight and barrel-style ones. Of course, you can wear anything that fits your lifestyle and you consider comfortable but these are ideas are currently the hottest.

Oversized Padded Coats

Choose a right design of an oversized padded coat and highlight it with a belt if you want. If you have a winter wardrobe done in basic or neutral colors, go for a very bright padded coat – orange, red, yellow, green or even some neon shades. Wear such an oversized coat with skinnies, with cropped or palazzo pants or pencil skirts to compensate the excessive volume in the upper part.
