Trendy Trench Coats Fall-Winter 2016-2016
Although coats are considered most ancient clothes, nowadays, they enjoy a great popularity, as well. These universal articles of clothing from the feminine wardrobe are designed mostly to protect from rain, wind and sudden cold temperature. In addition, trench coats are often used as elements of decoration, for example for creating informal outfits. So let’s find out what trench coats will be in style in fall-winter 2016-2016 seasons.
Length
If we talk about the actual length of the trench, the answer can only be one – maxi coats will be the top preference. This statement can be confirmed by analyzing the fashion collections from Undercover, Dries Van Noten, Emilio Pucci, Fausto Puglisi, etc. Although those who prefer midi length should not grieve because besides this diversity, very often could be seen the standard classical length (Lanvin, Kenzo etc.).
Cloak-trench coats and capes
Here are the leaders of the new cold season – cape-trench coats and all sorts of cloaks, which can be formed by one piece, resembling a lot quilts and blankets, or with cuts, short-sleeved or cutouts instead of sleeves. An example can be Dolce & Gabbana cape, which the brand has decorated with bright colors with floral prints and embroidery. Salvatore Ferragamo opted for the knitted “blanket” in soft colors with holes for neck and head, while Versace has included in his collection cloaks with yellow and red flowers. Kenzo has chosen for its product a dense fabric, which must defend not only from the whirlwind, but also from rain.
Prints
If you follow the fashion trends, then it is no secret that the most popular prints are geometric and animal print. This refers not only to skirts, dresses, bags, but to outdoor clothing as well, especially trench coats. Eg. Balmain launched a line of trench coats with multicolored vertical stripes, Badgley Mischka gave preference to plaid. Vivienne Westwood, Emilio Pucci, Fausto Puglisi also recommended to decorate them with prints, but this time opted for abstract, astronomy and supernatural.
Miu Miu has once again demonstrated his passion for the predatory animals theme. In their new cold collection, the brand has introduced many trench coats made from faux reptile and animal skin in both classic and unusual colors. From now on, on the streets will run predators of acid yellow, orange and blue colors to the astonishment and admiration of the passersby.
Décor
Designers could not forget also about the décor of their creations. Some decorative elements were found to be already known to connoisseurs of fashion, while others have sparked a wave of questions and ambiguities (eg. Undercover decorated his trench coats with imitations of broken glass). Burberry Prorsum, Emilio Pucci, Lanvin did not elaborate too much and opted for fringe, unfinished seams, and suspended “brushes”.
Color range
Analyzing the new autumn-winter collections, we begin to have doubts about the coming season asking: is it really a cold season? Judging by the abundance and variety of colors offered by preferred brands and fashion houses, their “compass of fashion” is defective because from now on, the autumn-winter season is a paradise for shades of red, green, orange, yellow, which was commonly used in spring-summer periods. We must also mention that also could be seen colors specific for autumn and winter season – beige, gold, milky. All assortments of fashion colors were presented by Fausto Puglisi, No.21, Donna Karan, Christian Dior.
Shining trench coats
Saint Laurent, Christian Dior decided to go back in the 70’s, in the era of noisy and bright nightclubs. In their view, now is the time to wear overcoats with lurex. Considering fashionistas passion for retro era, we can be sure that such clothes will find their loyal fans, especially because they look really stylish and impressive.
Fabric
And at the end of this fashion review we should also talk about fashion fabrics. It is equally clear that in fashion will be virtually all fabrics and textures. Eg. Chanel stayed true to the tweed and plaid, Akris offered translucent trench made of coats thin and artificial wool, 3.1 Phillip Lim, Alberta Ferretti included in their lines knitted trench coats, while Alexander Wang, Hunter Original, Carven and Mugler chose leather.
Analyzing the fashion trends of trench coats for fall-winter 2016-2016 seasons, we conclude the following: in fashion will be those cloth wear that will find their place in your heart. Individuality is all that matters. And if at some time a trench coat reflects your inner state – buy it without hesitating.
