Luxurious Fur Coats

Mink Fur Coats are the most popular and perhaps the slimmest looking fur coat on. Most furs have a long, sleek outer or guard hair and thick, soft under fur. So keep in mind, while the fur may be beautiful, is the particular fur coat you have on the most flattering for you? Includes pictures of beautiful fur coats.

Off-season is the best time to buy a beautiful fur coat, because supply exceeds demand. Why wait for the approach of the Winter season when the fur coat demand will pick up and you'll end up paying more?

So give some thought to your purchase: How will you wear your fur? Will you spend time in blue jeans and a funky knitted fur or a leather jacket lined in sheared beaver? Will you dress for an elegant night on the town in a classic mink coat? Or will a touch of fur add sophistication to your work wardrobe, with, for example, an understated fur collar on a classic wool suit? Do you want to buy a new fur coat, a vintage fur coat, or an estate fur coat! In each group you can find beautiful fur coats. Of course, new furs are more expensive than gently used fur coats, vintage fur coats, and estate furs.

Check to see that the pelts are lustrous, supple and well-matched.

Feel the fur carefully. There should be a dense, soft underfur that is evident to the touch under the glossy guard hairs, which should also be soft, never bristly.

Seams should be sewn tightly. Hems should fall straight.

Be sure to try the garment on to see if the weight is comfortable for you. You may be surprised at how lightweight many fur coats are these days.

When you try on a well-made fur, it should be well-balanced, falling evenly and comfortably from your shoulders.

There should be "give" to the leather side of the fur when horizontal tension is applied.

Maintain the condition of your beautiful fur coat by dry cleaning. Never put it in the washer. Proper storage should keep your coat for a lifetime. Closets should have proper air circulation, preferably 50F humidity to give the coat just the right amount of moisture.

One might ask why the Mink fur coat is so highly prized. Besides being obviously very beautiful, Mink fur has insulating and water repellent properties. The guard hairs are responsible for keeping the denser underfur hairs dry which retain heat.

Designer fur has been masterfully cut or combined with leather. Slim-fitting, long leather coats made with contemporary fur edged sleeves are very popular. Fur is used to embellish the garment's many edges, borders, collars and cuffs, to give it a new shape and add visual appeal.
