Combo: Down jacket with dress

IN THE RUBRIC "COMBO" We tell how to combine things of different styles, models, textures and colors. It can easily get tights in the net, unusual shoes, a vinyl miniskirt or a huge fluffy sweater - in the most unexpected combinations. Our illustrations are not a call for a purchase, but clues: after all, something like that may surely show up in the closet. In the new issue - a combination of down jacket and a dress.

It is hardly possible to come up with a more comfortable and warm outerwear than a down jacket. Today, the well-established stereotype that this is an exclusively utilitarian and near-sports thing is gradually fading away. Designers are advised to wear it with everything: with trousers, pipes, and shorts, and even with a classic suit.

Winter is not a reason to deny yourself dresses and short skirts. There are no hard rules for wearing a down jacket with a dress. If desired, a short jacket can be combined even with a very thin, translucent dress or midi skirt, but then it is better that all other clothes match the season as much as possible: a long scarf, coarse boots and thick tights. It is easy to notice the tendency to hypersize - now the most fashionable options are more like quilted blankets. You can really wear such with anything. Buttoning it up, you still find yourself in a safe cocoon, under which only shoes are visible.
