Timelessly cool and infinitely versatile, the trench is often considered the ultimate forever piece – and for good reason. A favourite with fashion insiders for bracing the elements in between shows at fashion week, the trench is as practical and utilitarian as it is chic and relaxed.

There are so many options in every different colour and pattern imaginable, but one thing is certain, a trench coat is an investment piece you’ll only have to buy once if you buy well.
