Fur As An Elegant Clothing Material

Even during the old times, fur was considered as a clothing material that is "fit only for a queen". Because animal fur isn't just something ordinary and mundane, compared to other clothing materials such as cotton and polyester, it really lives up to its reputation of being elegant, illustrious and out-of-the-ordinary. Even nowadays, you can only see genuine animal fur clothes in high-end fashion boutique stores and the cheapest one will usually go down in four figures, in U.S. dollars of course. Because of this, fur has been really out of reach for many fashionistas. Good thing for most of us, faux fur is now also available in many designer clothing. This gives us the chance to own clothing made in fur material without having to dish out too much for a piece!

Why Go With Fur Clothing


Since it is a very luxurious item to own and to possess, fur is one of those clothing items that we often reserve for special occasions. However, let us not forget that winter is never forgiving and the cold can really bite us hard. With the lowering and freezing temperatures just around the corner, it is always nice to have a warm, fuzzy fur jacket to keep us away from the cold.


Because it looks really royal, grand and extravagant, fur can really give other people an impression of you being too proud, vain and pompous, which should not be the case. In order to change this, you have to properly accessorize and choose well what to wear along with your fur clothing. Most of the time, fur material is used to make extreme winter jackets to help ward of the cold weather. At times, fur can also be used to make cardigans, shoes and even slippers --- making it a very versatile and wearable material.

There are many things that you should consider when wearing fur, as it is not your "normal" daily clothing. Like I said, not every one is used to seeing people wearing fur because of its quite expensive price point, but you don't have to be afraid to wear fur just because it is not "mainstream". When wearing fur, one of my advice from personal experience is "less is more". What I mean by this is that the fur clothing should be really noticeable, so you have to wear clothing or accessories that do not take the attention away from your fur clothing.



While it can be really tempting to accessorize yourself and wear accompanying clothes that are really flashy, going with a minimalist approach in your clothing choices is often the better choice when you wear fur. Donning a fur clothing means you are already setting up the clothe to "be noticed", so overpowering it with other clothes or accessories is not the best way to go about it.



If you want a sample of a fur clothing that can still be elegant while also being minimalist, this frilly chiffon hem fur cardigan is one of the perfect examples that you can check out. I personally like how the cardigan amplifies and accentuates a simple yet elegant look, and it can also be worn without looking too pompous or vain in other people's eyes! :)
