With the onset of winter, most of the child's wardrobe is occupied by warm clothes, including outerwear. Parents are sometimes puzzled by how to choose the right children's clothing. Mothers of girls are especially worried. After all, you want winter clothes for girls to be not only warm and comfortable, but also fashionable and beautiful. Winter wardrobe should be practical and suitable for walks and active pastime.
Types of winter clothing
For the production of children's clothing designed for the cold season, mainly natural materials are chosen. To increase their warming effect, various insulation materials are used. For outerwear, artificial fabrics with a water-repellent and windproof effect can be used.
For little princesses, parents can choose a variety of winter clothing items:
- Overalls are the most convenient option for little girls during long walks in frosty weather. Winter models are made of water-repellent material and fleece lining. Modern high-tech insulation perfectly regulates the child's heat exchange. In such clothes, the baby will be comfortable and not hot. The question of at what temperature to put on winter clothes for children cannot be answered unequivocally. For small children who spend all their time in a stroller, a winter overall or set can be put on already at a temperature of 0 degrees. For older children who are very active and move a lot outside, changing into winter clothes can be postponed until -3 - -5;
- Jackets and down jackets - a jacket - this item must be in a girl's winter outerwear collection. For games and sports activities in the open air, this is the most suitable option. Today, manufacturers produce models that go well with both boots and sneakers. They have a fashionable design, are easy to wash and comfortable to wear. The short style can be worn with warm trousers. Comfortable and lightweight down jackets are produced for girls. Models with a hood will protect the baby from wind and cold. Reliable insulation allows you to wear down jackets without warm sweaters;
- Coats - beautiful outerwear for girls for winter is presented in numerous stylish coat styles;
- Sheepskin coats – you should pay attention to sheepskin coats made of natural sheepskin. In them, young fashionistas will definitely not freeze even in severe frost. A stylish sheepskin coat will emphasize the taste of a little fashionista.
Materials and fabrics
The materials used to make winter clothes for girls meet such criteria as heat retention, protection from precipitation and wind, and good ventilation. Modern technologies make it possible to create fabrics that meet these requirements while remaining light and thin.
Today, manufacturers use a number of durable materials for the outer layer of winter clothing:
- The most popular and sought-after material for sewing winter clothes is considered to be a membrane. This is a thin film made of polyamide, which has a large number of micropores. It removes moisture to the outside, but does not let it in. In clothes made of membrane fabric, the child does not freeze or sweat, it is light and comfortable. In order for the membrane to retain its properties longer, it must be properly cared for, washed with special products. Under clothes made of membrane fabric, the baby should wear synthetic underwear;
- Cordura is a durable nylon fabric with a special structure: threads of different thicknesses are specially intertwined. The material is water-repellent and wear-resistant. Mothers of active girls note the durability of cordura clothing. You should take a close look at the fabric to avoid buying a fake. Real Cordura fabric has a transparent coating on the inside, through which the base of the fabric shines through. The front side of the fabric is matte, fleecy and hard. Water rolls off such a surface in balls;
- Polyamide is a durable, waterproof and breathable fiber that is often used for sewing children's outerwear for the autumn-winter season. Products made from this fabric are comfortable to wear, dry quickly and do not lose their shape after washing;
- Polyester - it is less durable than nylon, but is known for its water resistance and ease of care;
- Propylene - perfectly absorbs moisture, sweat, has dirt-repellent properties. But there is also a downside: the fabric wears out quite quickly;
- Bologna is a type of nylon that is treated with special compounds: they repel water and dirt. A significant disadvantage of the material is its impermeability to air. The fabric simply does not breathe. Therefore, it is not recommended to choose outerwear made of bologna for active girls, they will sweat. Such clothes are intended for temperatures from -5 degrees.
Fillers
Fillers for children's outerwear can be synthetic and natural. Each of them has its pros and cons.
- Wool is a durable and wear-resistant material that retains heat well. Due to its resistance to microbes, it is hypoallergenic. The disadvantages of the material include its large weight and the need for special care;
- Goose down - down is used as insulation very often. It is light, frost-resistant, water-repellent. Clothes with down quickly regain their shape after washing. Eiderdown and goose down are highly valued, and duck down does not withstand sub-zero temperatures very well. This filler also has its disadvantages. Down is allergenic, mites can appear in it. At temperatures above -15 degrees, a child in such things can overheat;
- Sintepon - products made of sintepon do not let moisture through and retain heat. However, after a certain number of washes, the material loses almost half of its thickness and does not protect from the cold. Therefore, it is better to leave this option for demi-season clothing;
- Thinsulate is one of the best fillers today. It has high heat-saving properties. Winter clothes for girls, sewn on the basis of Thinsulate, are always thin and warm, comfortable to wear. Thinsulate withstands temperatures up to -30 degrees. This filler has no disadvantages, except for the expensive price;
- Hollowfiber and isosoft - these synthetic fillers have the same cold resistance indicators. They retain their original volume, are restored after washing and are inexpensive.
Rules for selection depending on age
Winter style of clothes for girls and girls is a fashionable cut, beautiful and delicate colors plus comfort and reliable protection from the cold. When choosing one or another item of winter wardrobe, not only the appearance, price and quality are taken into account, but also the age of the girl. For each age category, the purchase of clothes has its own nuances.
Girls aged one and a half to three years old can wear both winter clothing sets and one-piece overalls. Overalls are convenient because they are easier to put on, and the child can run in them more comfortably. The downside of one-piece overalls is that they quickly become small.
Sets of a warm jacket and trousers always look interesting; if necessary, the jacket can be easily removed indoors. The jacket is chosen so that when sitting, it covers the child's lower back. The optimal length of the jacket is to the middle of the thigh.
For girls over 3 years old, you can buy a jacket or a down jacket. During this period, children begin to actively explore everything around them and move a lot, so it is preferable to choose clothes for them from membrane fabric. This way they will be protected from moisture and cold.
It is important for a teenage girl to look stylish. Fashionable winter clothes allow young princesses to feel confident in any situation, and show their own nascent taste. Help in choosing a winter wardrobe from parents at this age should be unobtrusive.
For teenagers, such types as coats, jackets and down jackets are relevant. These are universal options that can be worn with both a dress and trousers. A trapeze coat looks elegant on a girl, which can be worn to school and to a party.
Winter clothing designs for girls are abstract or floral, animalistic designs are allowed. Older girls prefer single-color items. At this age, young fashionistas love a combination of different colors or styles in one outfit. Winter outerwear for girls can be decorated with details such as a belt, handbag, scarf or shawl. Such accessories will help create a stylish individual look.
