Choosing a women's coat is no simple matter, as there are many elements to take into account. Whether it is a women's parka-style jacket or a winter overcoat in the form of a down jacket, it must be suited to your activities as well as your tastes and desires, while also being a true example of fashion and current trends.
Rule number one: the size of the women's jacket must be suited to your body shape in order to flatter you. The cut of the women's parka jacket (or down jacket) must also, above all, appeal to you and suit you. A down jacket with raglan-style sleeves will slim your shoulders, while a parka without external stitching will elongate your silhouette.
Rule number two: find the coat that meets your needs in terms of use. At Pyrenex, it is of course the aspects of protection against the cold and wind insulation that take priority. Do you play sport or plan very active outings? A short women's parka, or a technical women's down jacket made from breathable (and lightweight) fabrics, will allow you to move with fluidity and complete ease.
Are you in the habit of going out in all weathers? In that case, you need to choose a jacket whose fabric and padding are particularly waterproof and pleasantly warm. Look at the composition of its fabric in order to choose the one that suits you best – waterproof or water-repellent. Whether or not you enjoy the feel of fur, bear in mind that genuine fur is naturally resistant to rain.
Rule number three: colour. Choose a on-trend colour that will flatter you. Opt for a jacket in a striking shade such as red or pure white to make yourself stand out. Be on trend. Wanting to protect yourself from the cold does not mean you should forget to show off your look and your style. The ideal jacket is one that is both in keeping with current fashion yet timeless in its design.
