Even a boring outfit gains character and style with the right trench coat. Whether a classic or modern interpretation: Here are nine strong candidates.
But what makes a trench coat a trench coat? In classic terms, it is a coat in muted colours with a double-breasted button placket, tie belt and epaulettes. A so-called turtleneck often adorns the shoulder area and a cuff strap adorns the cuffs. A trench can be quite ornate. But it doesn't have to be.
Many things can be a trench coat today
While trench coats used to be very specific in terms of form and function, today the definition is more a matter of feeling. What counts are vibes, not details. Even without a second button placket, belt and epaulettes, a coat can capture the essence of the trench coat. Even the characteristic khaki or beige colour is not a must.
One tip from me: opt for wide, long silhouettes. Trench coats have their maximum effect when they reach at least above the knee and fall loosely. If you find long coats impractical, I would advise you to opt for the currently very trendy cropped trench - basically a jacket-style trench coat - instead of a half-length compromise.
Here are nine beautiful examples: From short to long, classic in beige or surprising in denim, sometimes with all the characteristic details, sometimes completely minimalist. You might even find your new favourite coat.
