when you want to feel polished
This year there’s been a notable shift towards tonal styling aesthetic. Master this endlessly chic styling technique by combining complementing shades – think tones of beige, caramel, and cognac – that will blend beautifully with a traditional tan trench. This season to make a sharp statement in and out of the office layer an oversized trench over suit in the same neutral tones, it feels super expensive and will be great teamed with either a heel or a chunky biker boot as we go into winter. For those wanting to push the layering boundaries, extend the life of your trench coat into the colder months by throwing a wool coat over your trench.

Oversized or cut to perfection thanks to its polished silhouette and lightweight fabric, a trench it’s a true eveningwear hero. Whether draped over your shoulders or cinched at the waist to add a feminine structure, a trench will lend a sophisticated edge to your dressier occasions.
