When I report on trends, I never say “You gotta get this!” But the trench coat is one of those ever returning staples that you must have in your closet. Paired with this years other fab trend, wide-leg trouser (we’ll get to that later this week), you’ll be looking crisp, clean, and classic. There is nothing better than the classic silhouette created by a quarter length trench coat.

In addition, the trench coat is body friendly to most sizes and shapes. Ladies with an athletic build can gain sexy curves when cinching the belt. While, ladies who are a bit more busty, can creatively camouflage extra cleavage. The trench coat also gives form an definition to an outfit. It’s a statement piece that can grab attention before the word “hello” falls from you lips.
