How to Wear Fur Wraps

Adding fur wraps to your wardrobe can be the perfect way for you to add a touch of class to your wardrobe, especially for those special occasions. Because of the wide variety of wraps made from fur that are available, there are many ways you can wear them for just about any occasion. Even though it may seem pretty straightforward when it comes to wearing these wraps, understanding how to make them a useful piece of your wardrobe will allow you to attract just the right amount of attention to your furs.

Wearing Fur Wraps

In general, fur wraps are designed to drape over your shoulders and down your back to provide you with the warmth you desire in the cold weather without having to wear a full coat. There are some occasions where a full coat can alter your look in a way that isn’t stylish or desired. However, it may still be too cool to be out on the town without something to keep you warm. With the incredible warmth fur wraps offer, you won’t feel as though you are cold, even if the wrap only covers a portion of your body instead of most of it like a fur coat would.

In addition to wearing the fur draped over your shoulders and down your back, some fur wraps are large enough to hang down your arms, providing you with even more coverage for greater warmth. They can also be wrapped around the neck similar to a scarf to keep the cool air off your neck. If you are looking to enhance the elegant look of fur wrap, you can also add a string of pearls or diamonds to the furs. This effect is even greater against darker furs.

Seasonal Wear

When you wear the fur wraps will be dictated by what the weather is like outside. If the weather is hot or quite warm, wearing a fur wrap can be a bit much. However, if you have a smaller wrap, you may still be able to wear it for a touch of elegance, even when the weather is warm. In most cases, though, fur wraps work best when the weather is cool and dry. While these furs can stand up to some rain or snow, it is best to avoid wearing them in heavier rains because too much moisture can lead to rotting and other problems with your fur wraps. 

 

Special Occasions

There are many people who save their fur wraps for those special occasions when they want to look their best. Those who spend a lot of time at charity functions and other formal affairs will find a fur wrap is a necessity to fit in with the other people who typically attend these events. Fur wraps can also be a great addition to your wardrobe for a winter wedding or formal dance, allowing you to stay warm and keep up your sense of style. Think about what type of clothing will be worn for each occasion and whether others are likely to wear their furs to help you decide if you should wear yours.

Fur Care

Proper fur care is essential to maintaining your fur wraps to keep them looking their best every time you wear them. A fur wrap should be kept in a cool, dark place, preferably away from the other items of clothing. Hanging fur wraps on padded hangers in a closet with at least an inch of breathing room is critical to maintain the integrity of the fur. Always make sure your fur is completely dry before you put it away, though you should never put it in the dryer or use a hair dryer on it. Fur wraps should be shaken out and allowed to air dry if they do become wet. These wraps should be professionally cleaned by a furrier at least once a year for the best results.

Fur wraps can be a great addition to your wardrobe, helping you look your best for all the special occasions you encounter in life. Knowing the proper way to wear your best fur wrap, as well as how to take care of it, will ensure you get the most from your investment.
