It’s fully lined, water-resistant, and made of 100 percent cotton.

I get so many compliments every time I wear this faux-leather trench. It’s comfortable, warm, and a bit oversize, which makes it perfect for layering over thick sweaters or cardigans in the fall and winter. Since this coat is edgy and sleek, my favorite way to style it is with ultrafeminine pieces — it adds a bit of contrast. I’ve also been very impressed with the quality and durability, considering the affordable price point.

Say hello to one of my most-worn pieces of fall 2023 thus far — sure, it’s an investment, but I’ve definitely gotten my money’s worth! This double-breasted trench features a roomy, oversize fit and exaggerated proportions, so it makes a statement no matter what you wear underneath. The stiff material — in addition to details like double-wrap belted cuffs and monogram-logo lining —feels so luxurious. My only complaint? No pockets.

Available in sizes 4-8.

Probably not the most practical of trench coats when it comes to warmth and weather resistance, but it sure is pretty.

For those who are all about fierce, futuristic fashions and love a good statement piece, consider investing in this metallic trench. (Pro tip: Since it’s a real-leather garment, I’d refrain from wearing this in any kind of potentially damaging weather.)
