S/S13 Trend: Trench coat softly re-defined

 Paris Fashion week September 2012

  Trench coats are constantly re-shaped/re-interpreted each season. I have to ask myself: will the trench coat ever stop being re-invented? 

   An essential outerwear look that has been re-cut/re-styled for more than 50 years by both RTW and couture designers as well as the high street retailers.  Today iconic Burberry Prorsum remains the number 1 go to for style and quality.  Although a few of my favorite Paris RTW brands (CELINE,Kenzo,Rochas,and Viktor and Rolf) created covetable trench options in soft drapping meets utilitarian chic
