There is hardly a more classic piece of fashion than the trench coat. Versatile, able to suit any weather, easy to style and functional, a trench is a must-add to your forever wardrobe.
There are countless variations of the trench to choose from; from classic camel to classy white, hooded, printed, leather and more. The options are truly endless for someone on the hunt for a coat to match their personal style.
The trench is a trans-seasonal classic as it can be worn in almost any cool weather and styled accordingly. As it is winter here Down Under you’ll find us pairing a trench with baggy jeans and sneakers on weekends and thrown over work pants on the way to the office.
It’s also a timeless staple, so we can guarantee you’ll be wearing your trench for years to come. This is why spending a bit of extra money on a quality version could be worth your while. After all, nobody wants to find the perfect coat, only to have it
On the hunt for your own forever trench this season? Take a look below at some of our favourites to shop for yourself.
