Are you ready for Melbourne’s unpredictable Autumn and your dose of A/W 2016 style?
Our trend forecast is telling us there is definitely one fashion staple piece which is making its comeback – a suede trench coat!
It takes more than a trending piece to know how to style for the season.
If anything, knowing how to style a trench coat is like knowing how to cook a meal! Get the right components and you can create yourself the perfect master piece!
The cuts, the colours, the textures, the shapes – from the biggest to the smallest details matter. Like cooking the perfect delicious tasting cuisine, it only takes that one item to get the style perfect to make you say “voila!”
Speaking of taste, the trench coat in particular, can be worn innumerable ways to suit your sense of style.
For that sleek and sophisticating look, wear a suede jacket styled with a well-fitting business shirt and a grey Brunello Cucinelli waistcoat vest.
While your coat will be the focal piece of your look, just remember the clothes that are layered underneath are just as important, in case you decided to take off your coat!
Coats in general, have become synonymous of layering.
The structures of the covering piece can also add a layer of stylish and chicness to the outfit.
This classic trendy apparel is not only versatile but also emphasises the masculine figure.
Longer coats like a three-quarter length suede trench from Loewe or Gucci’s cover stretch slim coat are ideal for tall or lankier men while it is recommended for those who would like to appear taller to wear shorter trench to show more length with their legs like the suede trench coat from Ralph Lauren
It’s nice to see other prominent designers bringing their refreshing take on the latest trends into these major labels. Like a chef contributes his kitchen skills in served courses, designers have been contributing their designer skills into the latest collections!
Newly appointed creative director of Gucci, Alessandro Michele has made his mark in the brand with eccentricity and glamour in the pre-fall Gucci 2016 Collection, taking the win for international designer of the year at the 2015 British Fashion Awards.
J.W. Anderson has also worked with the luxury Spanish brand Loewe winning both the menswear and womenswear designer of 2015.
Before you even wonder, there other variations of the trench in designer collections which will be also trending in the season ahead!
If you wanted to consider other options than a tan-coloured coat, go for a navy suede trench paired with some casual Harold suede tassel driver for minimal styling.
Above all, suede is the perfect material for contrast, especially when pairing it with silk material, printed suits and sports blazers or smooth shiny leather.
