In The Trenches; Summer Trench Coats

May 25th, 2007

Just because it’s almost summertime doesn’t mean it’s acceptable to run around in shorts and t- shirts all the time. Of course you can get away with dressing super casual in the hot months of June and July more easily, but looking lady-like has never been easier thanks to the trench trend

Just because it’s almost summertime doesn’t mean it’s acceptable to run around in shorts and t- shirts all the time. Of course you can get away with dressing super casual in the hot months of June and July more easily, but looking lady-like has never been easier thanks to the trench trend that is taking the fashion industry by (tropical Caribbean) storm.

Don’t feel like you must strictly adhere to a khaki-only law. LaRok’s Swing Back Trench Coat is a modern take on the traditional trench, in black with white trim and black and white buttons down the front. Front pouch pockets and buckle closures at the cuffs keep this coat from looking too traditional, and the just-above-the-knee length keeps it young and fresh.

Beat May Gray and June Gloom and get into the blue with Walter’s Blue Gray Belted Trench. The serene cobalt color makes the classic jacket a wardrobe staple, and will have you feeling anything but blue, despite the unpredictably gloomy weather between spring and summer.

For the ultimate in luxury, Missoni takes its infamous open-worked jersey to the next level with its Double-Breasted Trench Coat. Bell-shaped sleeves cinch at the wrist with a pretty tie, and the waist gathers in back to subtly flatter your figure, unlike boxier versions. Contrasting silk floral print on the collar adds feminine detail to a typically masculine-style coat, making it anything but something Dick Tracey would wear.

For a more casual look, cut the cold weather short and throw on a Cropped Trench Jacket from Walter. Its girly cut, neutral gray color, and short length make it versatile, and easy to wear well into the fall, day or night. Original Penguin has its own take on the classy trench, perfect for daytime. It’s Printed Trench Coat in Gray has a delicate flower print that makes even a tank top and jeans work overtime as a completely put-together outfit.

Tibor’s Double-Breasted Leather Trench takes you uptown in style, blending motorcycle-chic with comic book hero, with more panache than all four of the Teenage Mutant Ninja Turtles combined.

And if you’re looking to stay incognito, the Double-Breasted Trench Coat from A/X Armani Exchange pays homage to the originals worn on the battlefield during World War II, making you nothing less than a true soldier of fashion, minus the boot camp and combat gear, of course.
