Luxe to Less: Trench Coats

Words By Eliza Sears

A timeless silhouette, the trench coat transcends trends to remain an essential layering piece in every wardrobe.

Luxe

The trench coat has long been a staple in many a wardrobe, seamlessly transitioning from season to season, through breezy spring days to blustery autumn afternoons.

From cotton to leather, trench coats can easily elevate any outfit from basic to chic. When it comes to building a wardrobe guaranteed to last a lifetime, investing in a trench coat is a great option, the right trench will earn its place in your wardrobe for years to come.

Many designers have reimagined the history-rich trench, including Paris Georgia, whose Cocoon Trench, an oversized coat with contrast stitching, gives the classic piece a modern-day makeover. But, if it’s traditional, timeless design that sparks joy, there are plenty of classic trench coats on offer too.
