Models

Clothes for children are a subject of constant concern for parents, who, of course, want their tomboy not to freeze, not get wet, and also to wear things with pleasure and to look stylish.

With the onset of cold weather, the question arises how to shelter children from the weather, because the little naughty girls and minxes cannot sit at home, and they should be ready for going outside in the rain and the wind. Special clothes come to the rescue, designed to protect the little ones from bad weather. Such a lifebuoy for walking in bad weather becomes a raincoat.

The variety of models of children's raincoats, which can be found today in stores, will allow you to easily choose the right thing for your child.

Ideal protection from rain will provide raincoat. This variety can be represented by several models of different cut, made of waterproof materials. The traditional model has a length approximately to the knees, a free sleeve and a hood.

Raincoat poncho - this is a kind of sleeveless rain cover that can be worn over other outerwear. In some collections of children's clothing can be found such a model as a raincoat-jacket. It has a straight, rather than a fitted, slightly elongated silhouette, suitable for both girls and boys.

Protect your baby from wind and cold by using insulated demi-season raincoats. As a rule, these are articles lined with fleece or syntipon. Raincoats are very functional with a liner, which can be removed if necessary.

A raincoat can be an indispensable thing for dry, but cool weather. Cloaks similar in style to classic adult models (a raincoat-coat or raincoat-trench) made of gabardine or cotton will be useful both for everyday wear and for “going out”: to visit, to the theater, to the children’s or school holiday.

Length

Long cloaks are not suitable for children, as they interfere with their activities. Model cloaks for girls peculiar to two lengths: just below and just above the knees. Choosing the length is worth considering how the young fashionista is going to wear this item of clothing.

If a raincoat is meant for going to school and will cover a school uniform with a skirt or a sundress, then its length should be just below the knee. If the main function of a raincoat is to serve as a faithful companion to jeans and pants on active walks, then you can choose a length above the knees or a shortened version.

The version of the shortened raincoat, which can also look like a cape or a poncho, will suit both girls and boys. Such a raincoat is also convenient for the smallest, as it will not hamper movements and will not interfere with active knowledge of the world. Plus for parents that this raincoat is very easy to wear and can even be taken with you, folded into a backpack or bag in case the rain catches you by surprise.

Material

The undoubted favorites among raincoat fabrics are nylon and vinyl (polyvinyl chloride). The advantages of these materials are that they practically do not crumple, are easy to clean, durable and able to survive multiple washes. Often, for sewing raincoats are also used polyester, cotton, rubberized textiles.

Nylon raincoats are thin raincoats with no lining or cotton lining. Such a cloak, although it protects the child from wind and moisture, is not completely waterproof. By its properties it is closer to the windbreaker. The undoubted advantages of this material is its lightness and practicality: it is easily washed and dries quickly.

Polyvinyl chloride is used primarily for rainwear, as it provides 100% "dryness".Your baby will not get wet in such a raincoat even under heavy rain. This product is almost not washable. It is enough to wipe it with a damp cloth, removing dirt. The comfort of wearing a vinyl raincoat is provided by a cotton or polyester lining.

Recently, the so-called membrane fabric has been widely adopted in children's clothing, from which a huge amount of children's outerwear is made.

This material is also waterproof, does not absorb moisture, but, unlike nylon and vinyl, it is "breathable" and provides optimal thermoregulation.

The only drawback - products from this material can not be called cheap. Perhaps a more practical solution would be to buy a universal overalls or demi-season kit of such material.

Color and print

No line of children's clothing is complete without bright colors. Raincoats are no exception. The abundance of rich shades of yellow, pink, emerald and corresponds to the latest trends in "adult fashion".

True, the variety of drawings and prints for children's collections is much more: they are peas, flowers, butterflies, autumn leaves, and images of characters from favorite cartoons.

Do not go out of fashion and more practical colors of dark shades: dark blue, gray, burgundy, purple. Such a raincoat can be washed less frequently and worn every day. Well, if you buy a raincoat for a more adult child who less soils clothes, you can give preference to light colors.

Raincoats of beige, white, soft pink, soft blue colors with decorative embroidery, ribbons, bows, ruffles will look elegant and cute on little fashionistas.
