Trench coat is huge on the runway for spring 2023. I don´t know if I should be happy or sad about this news. Trench coat is back on trend!
Happy ´cause all I have to do is dust off my good old trench coat and I´ll be wearing something trendy this spring.
Sad because it´s the same trench coat that I´ve been talking about for a decade now. I mean, if you´re blogging about fashion for a decade, you´ll come to a point when all you do is simply parroting yourself. And repeating yourself over and over again can be boring. How many times have I blogged about trench coats?
So why trench coat?
If you look back at the history of this style of coat, you´ll realize that given its origin – the British army uniform – there´s really no other types of coat that can beat it when it comes to sharpness and elegance. It simply is at the top.
So if ones says that trench coat is a fashion staple, it´s hard to argue.
