In The Trenches


The trench has made a re-appearance.

This jacket probably never went very far but from my observations, the trench is walking out and about big time. Not so much the exact classic but a less structured, mac style in a softer fabric and an even more voluminous version. I have seen it worn over dresses, sweats and the tailored. What I love is the look of a classic with the very casual underneath.


My trenches – a black and a beige were always staples in my travel pieces – seem to have disappeared into the daughter’s wardrobes or lost amongst my myriad of moves. I miss them. Wearing a trench made me feel like my fashion game was intact and even if my mood or my underneath weren’t too sparky, the overlay of this coat made all the difference.


I’m on the search for a new version. xv
