Fashion hack: Almost everyone makes this coat mistake

Attention!
Almost everyone makes this mantle mistake

In the cold season we love cozy winter coats. But no matter which model you choose – there is a fashion faux pas that must be avoided at all costs.

Whether a casual long coat, trendy checked coat or camel-colored trench – coats are a must in autumn and winter and belong in every wardrobe. The range of models is more versatile than ever before and choosing your personal favorite is correspondingly difficult. Once the good piece is found, many women make the mistake of throwing the piece directly over their shoulders. Attention: Before you put on the new coat, you should definitely do one tiny thing that many simply forget:

The white "X"

Almost all coats have one thing in common: the small slit on the back that doesn't immediately catch the eye. The admirer of the coat, on the other hand, will notice it. And the fashion faux pas is already lurking there. Because: especially with high-quality and long coats, the small slit is sewn together with a white thread. And this one doesn't look particularly nice.

Why don't the designers just leave the thread out of production? Since the coat takes quite a long journey before it is sold, the white threads ensure that the piece retains its shape during transport and later on the hanger. Without the sewn "X" there is a risk that a corner will fold over and form an unsightly fold. And of course nobody wants that. Unfortunately, many owners forget to cut the thread after buying. The seam then flashes out while you wear it – not particularly stylish. So always pay attention to it in the future.

You should also watch out for these fashion mistakes:

By the way, forgetting the seam is comparable to a price tag under the shoe. The removal of the little note is also an unofficial fashion rule. And while we're at it: Just a few days ago I saw a man wearing a suit on the street who, out of ignorance, probably hadn't removed the company label on the right jacket sleeve. This man caused crooked looks from passers-by without even realizing it.

Because anyone who insists in a store that the label is not removed from the suit nowadays makes themselves suspicious of wanting to bring the goods back to the store after they have been worn once at an event – the same applies of course to price tags on women's clothing. Therefore, dear women: Always remove the price tag immediately after buying a new part.
