the 6 trendy models

As punctual as the first spring storm, the trench coat is back on the catwalk. L‘English raincoat is a certainty of fashion: elegant, timeless, it is the perfect coat for the mid season, when the weather changes quickly and you never know which jacket to wear when leaving the house. His discreet charm makes him the versatile ally to combine (more or less) with everything. And then, it’s easy to say trench: next to the iconic beige model in gabardine, the catwalks Spring/Summer 2023 offer models for all tastes. Rock in patent leather, checkered bon ton, short, oversized in denim: how to wear trendy trench coats.

The classic belted trench coat

If in a century it has never gone out of fashion there will be a reason: the trench coat with buttons and belt at the waist is a wardrobe staple, “impermeable” to the passage of time (pardon the pun). It gives a touch of mystery to every outfit, even the most basic, and can be worn with practically everything, from sneakers to heeled slingbacks.

The patent trench coat

Among the most glamorous models seen on the catwalk there is certainly the patent leather trench coat, to be worn with a contrasting turtleneck during the day and over a sparkling minidress in the evening. The coated patent trench coat is the Seventies diva overcoat, perfect with giant glasses and wedge sandals.

The denim trench coat

It’s now official: spring 2023 is the season of denim, in every existing wash, color and declination. Even the trench coat gives in to the charm of jeans and becomes a perfect utility jacket for the mid-season, to be worn in an oversized version on pop-coloured looks.

The patterned trench coat

Who said that the trench coat has to be solid color? The classic line of this overcoat becomes more cheeky and carefree when combined with pastel colors or geometric patterns, from maxi stripes to Vichy checks. In this case the trench coat becomes the focal point of the look: a patterned overcoat is perfect on a minimal look with cigarette trousers and moccasins.

The leather trench coat

If you think that the trench coat is synonymous with bon ton elegance, think again: it becomes rock and unexpectedly sensual if made in leather, even in a cruelty-free version. Perfect in a total leather look, the leather trench coat is worn during the day combined with a soft mag, in the evening it is worn with heeled boots and slip dresses. For true creatures of the night.

The blue trench coat

One of the (thousand) strengths of the trench coat is its versatility: if you are looking for a different color from camel but brighter than black, bet on a blue trench coat. Elegant, versatile, she goes wonderfully with beige or with white and light blue, in a “we dressed in the navy” style.

The short duster trench coat

No collar or belt: the trench coat gets lighter on the Prada catwalk, which relaunches it in a short ‘dust coat’ version. The short duster coat, more informal than the trench coat, is the right compromise between lightness and style: it goes with practically everything – even with a sweatshirt and sneakers – at any time of day.
