Every woman dreams of decorating her own wardrobe with a vest or a fur coat made of natural or artificial fur. In the new season, outerwear made of silver fox is extremely popular, and this is not surprising. Gray-black overflows fascinate and emphasize the luxury and spectacularity of the created style. A silver fox vest, according to numerous reviews, is primarily worth considering as an expensive accessory that gives status, self-confidence and elegance to the image. What and how to wear this wardrobe item in the new season?
Criterias of choice
The first and main criterion when buying a fur vest is the type of female figure. It should be remembered that this is a rather voluminous thing, which will further emphasize your volumes. Owners of magnificent forms, who want to hide them and balance the proportions, stylists recommend choosing options with short-haired fur. Thin and tall ladies can consider any model without restrictions.
Fur vests from silver fox vary in silhouette, length, and the presence of sleeves. Fitted, straight or narrow cut look different on different types of shapes. Owners of curvaceous forms are better to choose a short or hip-length version of the vest. It does not upset the balance of proportions.
The length of the model also matters. Extra long vests from silver fox from 80 cm fit tall ladies from 170 cm tall. For anyone below 165 cm, stylists recommend considering a shortened or medium-length model (about 55-60 cm).
The next criterion is the presence of a hood or just a high collar. It can be decorated with additional decor. The hood adds extra volume to the top of the figure. However, in windy weather it can do a good job.
Short vest
This option can be called universal. It is suitable for girls and women of any height and type of figure. A short vest made of silver fox (the photo below clearly demonstrates it) can be worn in calm weather with skirts and trousers in a multilayer ensemble, unfastened. The length will not visually “cut” the waist area and will allow you to keep the proportions. With a short vest, you can wear both a tight-fitting and a fluffy skirt.
Long vest
It looks even more expensive and luxurious. Stylists recommend wearing a long vest with a belt and high-heeled shoes to visually stretch the silhouette and balance proportions. This is especially true for girls and women of small stature. A silver fox vest (long version) can be worn from the very beginning of spring to late autumn, combined with a leather jacket or a thin drape coat.
Vest with sleeves
For enthusiastic fashionistas who do not want to part with this stylish wardrobe detail until the first frost, the designers thought up the option with sleeves. They can be short or three quarters long. Long sleeves already convert the vest into a short fur coat category. And these are other styling options. The stylist recommends combining a silver fox vest with sleeves with long gloves. In this case, they will look organic. The decorations on your hands look spectacular with this style of vest vest.
Hooded vest
This detail gives more volume in the upper part of the figure, so you should be careful with ladies with curvaceous shapes with it. On the other hand, the hood frames the face beautifully and highlights the skin with soft reflections of light that shimmer the fur. With this part, you can abandon the headgear. The fur will protect from wind and cold. With a hood, high hairstyles with weaves, braids, bunches, styling of a “shell” will look good. You get an elegant look.
How and what to wear
There are several main areas of stylization, which are adopted in the new season. Then we will consider them. For everyone, the vest opens a wide field of experiments in the styles of country, casual, boho-chic.
With jeans, pants, leggings, shorts.
The simplest and best combination for all occasions is a fur vest with skinny skinny jeans, a turtleneck or sweater with a collar that covers the neck, and high boots or ankle boots.
There are variations on the theme. Jeans can be replaced with leggings or tight-fitting leather pants. The secret lies in the fact that with a voluminous top, a tight-fitting or fitted bottom should always go so as not to upset the balance of the silhouette. The most daring fashionistas can combine a silver fox vest with jeans or wool shorts worn over warm neutral color tights. To them must be picked up high boots made of leather or suede.
As an exception, stylists suggest combining a fur vest with wide trousers. But in this case, shoes with heels and the presence of a belt over the vest are required to create proportions of the top and bottom.
With skirt or dress
A little black dress and a fur vest are just a classic look for all occasions. Be sure to have a clutch that emphasizes the sophistication and femininity of the style. A fur vest with a long evening dress looks spectacular and romantic. It envelops the figure with a soft warming cloud and emphasizes the contrast of textures.
It is recommended to choose fitted or tight-fitting skirts to the fur vest. The length can be any. A pencil skirt is ideal for the office.
With leather jacket, cloak, coat
Over the past few seasons, it has become fashionable to combine a fur vest with a leather jacket, a raincoat or a thin drape coat with the easy-feed of the world's leading designers. It turns out to be warm, stylish and practical.
The ensemble will allow you to stay longer on the street in cool weather. And in the room it will be possible to remove one layer, and stay in a spectacular vest.
With high boots or high heel ankle boots
The choice of shoes is traditionally dictated by the basic style of the outfit. Versatile options for a fur vest are high heel ankle boots and high boots. However, you can combine the upper with low boots, shoes in the English style, shoes and even ballet shoes.
Styling Notes
- For a fur vest, stylists recommend picking up voluminous, but not provocative decorations that emphasize the luxury of the image. Bracelets, necklaces, dangling earrings that additionally lengthen the silhouette, as well as chains with pendants will optimally complement the image. It is better to opt for one key decoration and develop its theme so as not to resemble a Christmas tree.

- The most seamlessly fur vest is combined with the following textures: knitwear, knitwear, velvet, silk, leather. Experiment with light tissues.
- To a vest it is better to pick up a bag of the same color. Or it could be a contrasting shade. In this case, only one color accent is allowed, and you will have to stop at it.
- A silver fox vest cannot be combined with other fur accessories in the image to maintain a balance of volumes. The exception is the tone-on-tone cap.
How to check the quality of the fur
The silver fox is very easy to distinguish from the cheaper counterparts of the fox or steppe fox. The first analogue is very similar, and the second is simply painted in the appropriate shades.
Natural silver fox has a unique wool color, which greatly facilitates the determination of a fake. The base of the hair is gray, the middle is white, and the tip is black. Only such a combination is a confirmation of the naturalness of the fur.
A silver fox vest can also be checked for authenticity by weight. Too light - it means the fur is stretched, the product will not last long. In addition, the vest will not warm. The weight also depends on the quality of the dressing, the length of the pile and insulation.
A natural silver fox vest should have a shiny surface, be smooth to the touch, with a thick undercoat. Thanks to the latter, the product retains heat and appearance. The hairs should not climb, and to check this, swipe against their growth. There will be nothing left on the hands, and the fur will take its original position. A quality vest should last you at least 6 years.
