Our Modern Take on the Classic Trench Coat
The trench coat, a staple in everyone’s wardrobes, has a rich history rooted in practicality and style. While often associated with film figures like Humphrey Bogart and Audrey Hepburn, the trench coat's origins can be traced back to the trenches of World War I, where it emerged as a practical solution for soldiers fighting in often muddy and wet conditions.
Women's trench coats began to gain popularity in the early 20th century. Initially inspired by the men's version made of heavy gabardine fabric, they were often tailored to fit the female form and featured feminine details like buttons and epaulettes. As fashion trends evolved, women's trench coats were adapted to suit various styles – with pockets, belts, and double-breasted fronts – ensuring both style and practicality.
Our modern interpretation of the iconic trench coat is crafted from an ultra-fine, tightly woven merino wool by Dino Filarte. This premium material offers exceptional warmth, creates a refined and elegant drape on the body whilst ensuring a lightweight feeling on the skin, making it the perfect companion for both day-day and evening looks.
Combining beauty, form, and function, it stands out as a sophisticated essential in your wardrobe, effortlessly blending style and resilience.
