During the off-season, trench coats occupy the top position among the most desired purchases. Wicked and wind repellent, these thick gabardine raincoats are made for inclement weather. In the new collections of the spring-summer 2022 season, designers offer not only classic variations of the beige trench coat, but also modern coats made of patent or matte leather or options with voluminous sleeves. Traditional British trench coats with a belted waist, straps at the wrists, a yoke at the back and a turn-down collar have a slight update this spring – now they are missing sleeves or they are sewn from different pieces of materials. Vogue.ua has collected the most fashionable trench coats of the coming spring, which you won’t be able to refuse.
Leather
Leather trench coats do not lose their relevance this spring. Wear black laconic Trinity raincoats or choose elegant models in pastel shades with a belt at the waist. At Alexander McQueen you’ll find a rugged leather trench coat with chunky wrist and shoulder straps, at Fendi a business-ready beige color scheme with a slim fit, at Kwaidan Editions a romantic cotton candy trench coat, and at Khaite a cheeky vinyl trench coat.
Classic
Even though the design of the classic beige trench coat is 200 years old, brands are still celebrating it in their collections, working hard to modernize this iconic trench coat designed by Charles Mackintosh. Initially, the progenitor of the modern trench coat in sand colors was a waterproof mac, after which a more practical version of the gabardine trench was produced by designer Thomas Burberry. Since then, Burberry has continued to release its iconic trench coats, adding a few unusual trench coats to its lineup each season. You can also find classic milk coats in the Michael Kors Collection and Rokh collections.
Voluminous sleeves
Trench coats with exaggerated sleeves and increased shoulder line are one of the main trends of this spring. Thanks to this stylistic device, the waist visually looks a few centimeters thinner than it actually is. Take a look at the gray Alexander McQueen A-line trench coat with sash at the waist, the beige Rejina Pyo raincoat with airy sleeves, or the pale Alexandre Vauthier trench coat inspired by the 1980s era.
Without sleeves
A trendy novelty of this season, which will soon appear on the main influencers – sleeveless trench coats or, as they are also called, trench vests. This option of outerwear will be especially relevant with the advent of heat, in April and May. Wear them with rough boots, ankle strap sandals and loafers paired with white socks. Find the best sleeveless trench coats at Sacai, Burberry and Victoria/Tomas.
Combined
A mix of different shades and textures is a fashionable technique that can often be seen in brand collections, and this season is no exception to the rule. Designers began to experiment with design, resulting in interesting combined models of trench coats. Burberry adorned the milk cape with perforated leather sleeves, Lutz Huelle showed a trench coat consisting of blue denim and khaki gabardine, and Thebe Magugu offered an option with bright blue inserts.
