Corsetry and coats aren’t pieces you would naturally put together, but Kym
Ellery has convinced us they work. Her Resort 2019 collection is littered with references to classic, structured silhouettes in places you’d least expect them – this stretch-cotton trench is one such style. A longline cover-up cut with notch lapels, it’s interrupted by a topstitched bustier-like panel layered over the bodice. That’s what we call underwear as outerwear.
