COCOON

Cocoon is a voluminous, rounded silhouette that softly envelops the body, narrowing downward like a cocoon. The shoulders and back in this cut are voluminous, while the bottom is drawn in, so the figure ends up in a soft, protective 'nest' of fabric. Most often the cocoon silhouette is embodied in coats, jackets and capes, less often in dresses. It hides the forms, gives a feeling of comfort, warmth and cosiness, and also has a sculptural, modern character. Cocoon coats became favourites of minimalist and avant-garde fashion thanks to their clean, streamlined form without excess detail. This silhouette does not emphasise the figure but envelops it, placing the accent on the very architecture of the clothing. Cocoon is a silhouette of cosiness and sculptural elegance, in which a voluminous, streamlined form creates a feeling of protection and calm, modern refinement.
