Have you ever wondered what your much-loved trench coat would look like if you turned it into a
skirt? Maybe not, but preppy French brand
Claudie Pierlot has and it’s ticking all the right boxes. Fashioned to a nifty A-line shape, this cotton-twill piece is punctuated by a universally flattering paperbag waist – providing the welcome illusion of longer legs. Finished with a double button placket to the front, you can clearly see outerwear influences.
