Burberry

Of course we had to include the original trench in our edit: the military coat first dreamed up by Thomas Burberry in 1916. It's shape has shifted a little since then – the Chelsea design has a ladylike A-line fit and a nipped-in waist – but all the signatures we know and love remain. Made from waterproof cotton-gabardine, each one is detailed with epaulettes, storm flaps, buckled collars and cuffs, then lined with that iconic check.

Reformation

Break away from beige with Reformation's dark-blue denim trench. It's cut for a relaxed double-breasted fit, dotted with tort buttons and finished with wide sleeves. Wear yours with tonal flares to give it a 2024 update.

The Row

The queen of Quiet Luxury, Jennifer Lawrence has been making a case for The Row's minimalist trench coats recently. This caped design forgoes hardware for a softer finish, and has a long panel meant to be draped over your shoulder.

Aligne

Aligne

Now 18% Off

Aligne's Gilda trench coat has finally been re-stocked after multiple sellouts. A huge hit with the fashion set thanks to its dramatic maxi hemline (Brittany Bathgate models it here), it's made from organic cotton and comes beige, oxblood or black.

Veronica Beard

Now 30% Off

Veronica Beard's caramel-coloured vegan leather spells out luxury. Tap into latte trends with a neutral outfit beneath, or layer over one of the brand's signature 'dickey' collars for a more casual take.

Whistles

All-black looks are the oldest and easiest trick in the book when it comes to styling (just Google Mary-Kate and Ashley Olsen if you need confirmation). The cherry on top of a tonal outfit, Whistles's featherweight trench has a drapey cut and minimal fastenings.

Toteme

Toteme's warmer take on the trench is more appropriate for chilly, transitional days. Made from wool blended with a hint of cashmere, this camel coat has the brand's signature draped silhouette and an open front for seamless layering.

Jigsaw

Now 20% Off

Jigsaw has stayed true to the classic trench but added in some playful touches; we love the Eighties-inspired batwing sleeves and utilitarian D-ring belt. This oversized coat has already sold out multiple times this year, so add it to basket while you still can.

Barbour

Barbour's waxed jacket is beloved by the likes Alexa Chung, Sienna Miller and The Princess of Wales; so the meshing of these two British outwear icons feels really special. Inspired by archives designs, this coated trench is topped with a corduroy collar and cape storm flaps.

Arket

The leather trend is still going strong for 2024, so if you've already got the skirt and trousers hanging in your wardrobe, it's time to graduate to outerwear. Arket's fastening-free design will add edge to even the most basic outfits this spring.

Acne Studios

Now 70% Off

Acne Studios has given the trench coat a new Western edge in the form of tonal-brown cow print. We like how the brand tempers this bold pattern by keeping other elements – the cotton-gabardine, double-breasted shape and classic fastenings – as traditional as possible.

Good American

If you'd rather not wear animal-derived materials, you can still tap into current trends with Good American's trench. Made from buttery faux-leather that feels just as good as the real thing, this coat nods to the 1970s with its double-breasted fastenings and oversized shoulders.
