There was poetry in the dry colors and hand-designed titles given to these old book covers. On the trench coat, this is translated by a new silhouette: fluid and slender. Like a successful crossbreed of a regimented coat and a safari vest, this softly belted trench coat made of cotton canvas brings history back to life.
A reference to British films of the 30s and 40s, Burberry has Bailey’s wife wearing a rigid trench with a severe look, reenforced by military details like gusseted pockets or buttons that climb right up to the cuff. Bringing out all the romanticism of the trenches.
