You’re probably wearing your new coat the wrong way, find out why: Femme Actuelle Le MAG

This winter, you’re on the lookout for trends that will keep you on top of style, but also warm. The slavic girl look no longer holds any secrets for you with its faux fur coats and hats and to tie your scarf, you rely on one of the five most trendy techniques of the moment.

Getting ready for another hectic and highly fashionable day, you put on your favorite winter dress or a big, fluffy sweater with a skirt and a pair of boots. To complete this look, you may also have fallen for THE most fashionable tights of the moment (patterned burgundy, it’s great!).

To cover yourself, you decide to finally wear your new coat, which you received as a gift during the Holidays and which is your favorite, with its long cut, its beautiful material and its trendy color. But be careful, there is a gesture which is too frequently forgotten and which panics TikTok, the social network readily calling it a fashion faux pas.

This gesture not to forget before wearing a new coat

When your coat is new, it is often sewn in several places. This is the case for the pockets but also for the slit located at the back at the bottom of the length, which is often kept closed with a cross-stitched thread. The goal ? Maintain the coat in an impeccable position when displayed on a hanger, but above all, avoid creases or the slot becoming deformed when it is stored in the store. Before wearing it, do not forget to cut this thread so that your garment can regain its range of movement and fluidity, but also give you greater comfort when you walk since your stride will no longer be hampered by this closure.

On TikTok, Internet users have seized on this phenomenon (an oversight quickly happens or sometimes quite simply, we think we are doing the right thing by leaving it like this), and film people in the street walking around with this ever-present seam, reminding us with a touch of humor that must be removed, to avoid a fashion faux pas.
