Long women's gloves

It is not the first season that long women's gloves complement the images of models at the shows of collections of various designers and, importantly, of different seasons. This accessory has long ceased to be purely street - you can wear it both for warmth and for beauty. They will add luxury to any bow, you just need to figure out how to wear them correctly.

Short gloves, even the most beautiful, are most often worn to warm the hands. Long ones have a different task - to “make” an image. With long gloves it is impossible to be an inconspicuous gray mouse. They will immediately set you apart from the crowd.

It is very important that this accessory adds vertical stripes to the image, which means it helps to stretch the figure and visually make its mistress slimmer.

Made of expensive materials, long gloves perfectly complement not only elegant, but also basic things. With their help, you can even make your everyday look more status.

For wearing with outerwear in autumn and winter, long gloves are sewn from leather, suede, wool, cashmere. Most often they are up to the elbow, and the fingers are completely closed. From the inside, gloves should be insulated with a woolen knitted fabric, the warmest ones may have a fur lining.They can be smooth or folded.

Glowellettes are gloves with fingers that are cut off at the middle phalanx. Such models are often very richly decorated - the decor on them looks especially beautiful. Of course, you can’t wear such gloves in cold weather, but insulated models are available that are convenient for autoladies.

Amazingly beautiful gloves for a special occasion. They are sewn mainly from guipure, satin, silk with the addition of synthetics or artificial materials. The choice of styles is just huge! Fully closed gloves with fingers made of translucent guipure look very gentle.

A popular model is mittens, which are fixed on the middle finger with a loop. Such gloves lengthen the arms well and make the bride more elegant. Many brides prefer mitts also because the wedding ring will be put on the finger immediately.

Wedding mitts without a loop are sewn with a beautiful frill on the fingers.

The length of such gloves can be different - from elongated options, reaching the middle of the forearm, to very long ones that go beyond the elbow. The imagination of designers here knows no bounds - wedding gloves are richly decorated: embroidery, beads, rhinestones, drapery, frills and ruffles, appliqué. By the way, it is not necessary that wedding gloves are white. Like the dress, they can be ivory, red, blue, and even extreme bright colors.

Best of all, long gloves look with dresses with thin spaghetti straps or with bare shoulders. According to etiquette, during the feast they are removed.

Very elegant glove models, where the cuff (the whole part that comes after the brush) is made of a different material.For example, the glove on the hand is leather, and the cuff is cashmere. Thanks to the beautiful cut (cuff and glove can be sewn with an angle, rounded seam, etc.) and the combination of materials, these gloves look expensive and stylish. They can be very whimsical in care, but they are worth it!

Gloves with a thick knitted cuff, reminiscent of a warm sweater sleeve. Due to the fact that they combine leather with knitwear, they are cheaper than full leather options, but they look very good with coats, ponchos, vests.

Mitts are a type of fingerless gloves. Unlike glovelets, they do not have fingers at all; end at the bones. Some models have a small "tube" for the thumb, and some do not. For girls with graceful hands and beautiful manicure, both are good. If gloves with fingers are a classic, then glovelets or mittens will perfectly complement a sporty or casual style.

Glove manufacturers produce products in every color imaginable. Basic colors - black, gray, brown - will suit almost any outfit. Blue, blue, green or red gloves can be diluted with boring black and gray coats or fur coats. Whimsical beige, white gloves will suit no less whimsical light coats or elegant dresses. Shiny gloves complete your evening look.

When choosing the color of gloves, it is worth remembering that it is not at all necessary to combine them with shoes or a bag. It's a good idea to support them with a little similar color accent. But in general, long gloves can and should be a bright vertical line in their own right.

The purpose of long gloves and what they can be combined with directly depends on the material from which the gloves are made.

For wearing with outerwear in different seasons, of course, leather gloves are most suitable. They are durable, beautiful, quite status and appropriate in any situation. For the winter, options from smooth leather, insulated with wool or fur, with fur trim are suitable. For warmer weather or under a dress - thin leather gloves, perforated, openwork. Wearing leather gloves, your hands will never get sweaty or cold.

Suede long gloves are also versatile. They are worn both with coats and fur coats, and with dresses (an example that has already become a classic is the image of Angelina Jolie in the movie The Tourist). Such models look very expensive, but require careful maintenance and careful handling. Good suede is quite thin, has a noticeable pile. When choosing suede gloves, pay attention to the thickness and quality of the seams - they should not rub your hands.

Cashmere gloves are warm and beautiful. Stylists do not recommend combining them with leather clothes, but with coats or furs, this will be an excellent choice. Cashmere, in addition to warming the skin, is quite elastic. Such gloves can be worn both on the bare hand and on the sleeve.

Knitted options are good for creating relaxed bows in a casual or sporty style. They go well with jackets and down jackets. Knitted gloves are an order of magnitude cheaper than leather ones: this is a great option for students or those who are just starting fashion experiments. The best option for the street is coarse knit woolen gloves. By texture, they are perfectly combined with coats, knitted cardigans, capes, knitted dresses.

Another inexpensive option is fleece gloves. It is a synthetic material that resembles wool and retains heat well. They are quite thin and comfortable, stretch easily and are unpretentious in care. Can be completed with knitted details on the cuff. Fleece gloves are not a smart option. They can be worn when going shopping, walking with children.

Lacquered gloves will draw everyone's attention to your hands. Long for the elbow or only to the middle of the forearm, they will be the center of the image and its main accent in any case. That is why stylists believe that this thing is not for every day. Such models are suitable for an evening dress, an elegant fur coat (especially bright, contrasting colors). Patent leather requires more care than regular leather. These gloves are not recommended for carrying heavy bags.

For wearing with evening dresses, in addition to leather, various fabric gloves are suitable. Satin - absolutely smooth and with a beautiful sheen on the fabric. Very often, wedding gloves are sewn from satin. Decorated with draperies, embroidery. They stretch well, but rather slippery - you should take this into account when choosing a handbag and other accessories.

Lace models surprisingly emphasize the grace of the hands. Openwork, translucent, depending on the color, they can bring different notes to the image. For example, black - will add mystery and elegance. Red - passions (it is no coincidence that long red gloves are part of erotic costumes), and white or beige will emphasize the lightness and purity of the image.

Real velvet, which is made from silk fiber, is not easy to find today, so velvet gloves are a rarity. However, there are good synthetic counterparts that look no less luxurious.The main thing is that the pile is thick and on a dense basis - then the fabric will form amazing folds, which give the velvet a solemn look. Long velvet gloves are an evening option, black velvet gloves can be worn with a smart coat.

In order for a long glove to sit like a glove and fit your hand, you need to choose the right size.

Glove size is determined as follows:

• Measure the circumference of your palm across at the base of your thumb.
• Convert the result to inches by multiplying the resulting number by 2.54.
• Round the result.
• The resulting number is the size.

Gloves are not bought without trying on, especially long ones! The cuff should be neither narrow nor wide, easy to put on and not gather into folds, if this is not provided by the model. Fingers should move comfortably and bend. If you “spread” your fingers in different directions, a properly selected glove does not “pull” anywhere - otherwise it will quickly break.

Pay attention to the accuracy of the seams - on long models, all this is noticeably much stronger than on short ones. The insulation must be well distributed inside and not damaged.

Leather, suede, cashmere or velvet options are best suited to a fur coat. A fur coat with short sleeves is, of course, an impractical thing. Therefore, as a rule, this is either the second fur coat in the wardrobe (it is assumed that there is another one, warm - with a one-piece sleeve), or a transformer model. In such a fur coat, a full-fledged sleeve comes unfastened, allowing you to wear it with long gloves in warm enough weather.

In order for gloves to serve for a long time, it is necessary to wear them correctly.You can not put all 5 fingers into the glove at once, and then straighten the material by crossing the fingers of two hands. In order not to damage the seams, the cuff of the glove must be bent (with long gloves - slightly gathered) and at first only 4 fingers should be inserted, tightened well, and then the thumb should be inserted into the glove, while smoothing the cuff and straightening it to its full length. In narrow gloves that are difficult to put on, you can pour a little talcum powder.

When it comes to outerwear, long gloves are worn with fur coats and coats with short sleeves. Either a ¾ sleeve, then the glove reaches the elbow, or 7/8, then this is a shorter version of the glove - up to the middle of the forearm. It is very beautiful if the sleeve is wide at the same time - so the accessory will emphasize the line of the arm more strongly.

Elongated gloves go well with fur vests, capes, boas. On the catwalks you can see stylish images: a fur vest - a bare hand - a glove. In reality, wearing this is unlikely to work out, so stylists recommend that the glove matches in color with what is worn under the vest - i.e. black turtleneck - black glove.

Under the coat, you can choose both leather and suede, and textile (velvet, cashmere) and knitted options. If you want to surprise - be sure to look at the cape - a coat in the shape of a trapeze with cutouts for the arms. With such a stylish little thing, long gloves that combine different textures look good - for example, leather and knitwear.

A poncho is also a great companion for long gloves. To the cape, you can pick up both knitted and leather, fleece models.

For an evening dress, gloves should be selected very carefully. It is believed that the shorter the sleeve, the longer the glove.Ideally, if there are no sleeves at all, and the glove goes beyond the elbow. But this is suitable for slender girls with fairly long and graceful arms. Plump girls should remember that the glove should in no case “cut” the hand in the thickest place.

Each image is individual, but stylists advise the following combinations:

• To the dress of a classic cut made of dense fabric - leather gloves.
• A chiffon, guipure dress will successfully complement suede gloves.
• Satin and silk dress will be complemented by lycra or satin accessories.

When dressing for a solemn event, you can put on a bracelet or ring over gloves, but in no case should there be a lot of jewelry!

In the collection of the brand this season there are many combined options - leather + textiles, leather + cashmere. Particularly stand out are models made of natural velor, draped at the cuff.

A good selection of textile models from woolen jersey. Gloves are quite richly decorated - with rhinestones, embroidery, decorative stones. Moderately modest model with decorative stitching.

Leather gloves rich cognac color, smooth, with decorative seams on the outside. Form beautiful, natural folds.

Elegant leather gloves with knitted sleeves. The perfect companion to the classic coat.

From the catwalk to the streets of the city! A light coat with a classic cut is complemented by an interesting belt, wide trousers and long gloves in the same color scheme. A combination of simplicity and chic in one look. A game of contrast: a light cape is complemented by gloves and a hat in a bright shade. Despite the beauty of the dress and coat, it is the gloves in this look that catch the eye.
