What is it?
The trench coat was created during the First World War with the aim of protecting British soldiers against the cold and rain during battles. Its creator, Thomas Burberry, named it in reference to trenches (holes dug by soldiers to enter and hide from enemy attacks).
At that time these coats were seen, generally, below the knees and made with gabardine fabric.
However, as the decades went by, many variations of the model appeared, above the knees, in cotton, wool, leather, knitting, in short, a vast array of fabrics.
It has become a fundamental piece in colder countries and here in Brazil it can be a fashion option as winters tend to have lower and lower temperatures!
One of the benefits for the female body is that the trench coat doubles as a coat, blazer or even a dress and, moreover, when worn closed, with or without a belt, it helps shape the silhouette.
The truth is that, if it's cold, the trench coat can come out of the closet to form
amazing looks!
