With fall upon us, we love a classic coat style that’s reinvented with a fresh update season after season, and the trench coat is no exception.
The timeless piece has been upgraded to be both practical and fashionable. And now that the cooler weather brings a roller coaster ride of temperatures, a trench coat is an easy transitional layer to stay warm.
Some of the most stylish celebs agree. At last month’s Burberry Spring/Summer 2023 fashion show after-party, Bella Hadid wore a sleek take on the black leather trench coat reminiscent of the Matrix franchise. Worn over a classic white collar shirt and black tie and complemented with green sunglasses and leather boots, Hadid’s trench coat completed her head-to-toe agent-chic look.

Katie Holmes is taking a more casual approach to the trench trend and recently wore the tan coat, which she left open and styled with jeans, trainers and, like Hadid, a white button-down shirt. Holmes has been seen in a variety of trench coat styles over the years, playing with color and length.
The best thing about the simple statement coat is its versatility. Wear a loose, relaxed version over slim-fitting jeans and a t-shirt if you’re strolling around town like Holmes, or try a darker style over a dress and boots to give your look an edgy boost worthy of Hadid remind.
We’ve rounded up trench coats that go with just about anything and are on sale at up to 72 percent off. Plus, you’ll be reaching for these jackets for years.

Khaki or black trench coats, like this style by Sam Edelman, offer the most traditional take on the outerwear trend. Also available in a shorter version for small sizes that might feel overwhelmed in an ankle length, this nylon style is an ideal option when you’re looking for something light enough for warmer days. Its moisture-wicking quality keeps you dry even in less-than-ideal weather conditions. Rayon used in this color block Halston style is another lightweight fabric that works well in warmer weather.

Leather or faux leather offers a fashion forward touch while being versatile enough to wear every day or complete a look for special occasions. Grab one in classic tan or sleek black like Hadid’s, both go with just about any outfit. Or go bolder with a unique hunter green version that can add interest to a more monochromatic look. Whatever color you choose, opting for a leather trench coat will instantly elevate your outfit from basic to beyond. They can also be paired over a simple white t-shirt and embellished with jewelry for rock star glam.

And then there’s wool: the fabric takes the fall-to-winter trench coat trend and offers a streamlined, less bulky option than other cold-weather coats.

Or opt for this no-frills tie-belt option from Cole Haan, now 71 percent off. While wool is certainly the fabric of choice when the temperature really starts to drop, both options still offer breathability and comfort.
