A classic that’s endured the decades, the trench coat has risen through the ranks from a practicality in WW1 – the D-ring belt made for attaching maps and equipment – to a widely considered wardrobe essential.
Claudie Pierlot takes this well-recognised silhouette and imbues it with the French label’s undeniable charm; take a look at the cuffs and notice the subtle bows. Keep the layer playful by pulling the belt in tightly at the waist.
