Vintage Burberry trench coat
Share
The Burberry trench coat is a timeless classic, but what few people know is that it came about because its creator, Thomas Burberry, was a revolutionary of his time. He created an innovative fabric, the breathable, moisture-wicking, heat-resistant gabardine, and pioneered the trench coat.
The experience of owning a trench coat can be compared to buying the world's first car or the first iPhone - it's a chance to touch where it all began. Remarkably, the trench coat has hardly changed and yet has remained in fashion for over 140 years! That's what it means to be truly time-honoured. The trench coat was worn by Winston Churchill, Frank Sinatra, Queen Elizabeth and Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's. So when you buy one, it's as if you're becoming part of history.
Over-size trench coats are especially on-trend, so look out for vintage styles from the 80s.
