Voltaire Extraordinary and long women's winter coat made of warming wool in black

Long women's coat made of a warming alpaca-wool blend. An unconventional creation for winter, which combines elegance and roughness with playful rigor in an idiosyncratic way.

"Since it is very beneficial to health, I have decided to be happy," is one of these sentences of the 18th century French author, poet and philosopher with the pen name Voltaire.

The winter coat of the same name from the in-house atelier is intended as a tribute to the poet: it is for all those who are looking for creations in which elegance and roughness are on an equal footing with playful sophistication.
On the one hand, the fabric is responsible for the success of this symbiosis: alpaca and wool, which provides a cozy feeling on cool autumn and winter days.

The women's coat is full of obstinate details:

the refined collar, which can be worn both as a lapel and raised
the special sleeves with asymmetrical ends and the three ochre lines
the ochre-yellow seam edging inside the coat
the seams deliberately left open at the bottom
the discreet, natural-looking horn buttons
the two large pockets for smartphone, wallet & Co and the detail of the three lines

In combination with the black trousers 'Châtelet' and the 'Tolstoi' turtleneck pullover in sand, it creates an unconventional, casual ensemble for cold winter days. Worn over the avant-garde dress 'Woolf', 'Voltaire' becomes a warming companion for special occasions.

The special properties of alpaca wool - Lightweight and yet very warm

The fibers of Alpaca wool are characterized by their delicacy, but at the same time they are resistant and durable.

Alpaca wool is characterized by its special thermal properties. Its internally hollow fibers provide excellent insulating capacity and superior heat retention.

Compared to other types of wool, alpaca wool retains body heat more effectively. This material is not only warmer, but also pleasantly soft against the skin. It also provides protection in cold weather up to minus 30 degrees Celsius. Thus, it is particularly suitable for people who are always cold.

The special structure of wool also gives it an impressive water resistance. This allows you to stay dry for several hours even during unexpected rain showers. In addition, the fiber is able to absorb up to a third of its own weight in moisture. It releases this continuously without feeling damp.

In addition, the wool is characterized by its wind resistance. A special processing procedure binds the fibers in such a way that they form a wind-repellent surface. Despite this density, the wool remains breathable and stores both warm and cool air. Thus, it provides a balanced climate on the body.

The natural composition of wool also makes it flame retardant. This is a safety advantage, especially in comparison with synthetic fibers. Last but not least, wool has the ability to neutralize odors.

While synthetic clothes often need to be washed after being worn once, with this wool a simple airing is enough. This will help you avoid unpleasant odors.

Does alpaca wool scratch?

Alpaca wool is known for its exceptional softness, which makes it an ideal choice for sensitive skin. Unlike some other types of wool, it does not scratch and provides a comfortable feel. 

The hypoallergenic properties of wool also make it an excellent choice for allergy sufferers. Unlike many synthetic materials that can cause skin irritation, this wool is especially gentle on the skin. 

Its natural fibers are not only soft, but also free of chemical additives that could trigger allergies. Thus, the wool offers a safe and comfortable option for people with sensitive skin or allergies.
