Story
In the world there are a huge number of things that were and will be relevant in the world of fashion industry. Such things include trench. Every cult thing has its own history. Trench is no exception.
He is a distant relative of the mac. It is a raincoat made of rubberized fabric that does not get wet, but also a men's summer coat, which appeared in the early 19th century.
For the first time to produce trench coats started in the years of the First World War. Clothing was made for the British infantry, and when the war ended, civilians also began to wear it. The supplier for her was Thomas Berberri. The combination of cloak and coat became known as a trench coat.
Trench coats are practical, as they do not get wet and well protected from the wind. Therefore, they are very fashionable for women of any age.
Thomas Berberry became the inventor of gabardine in 1880. This was a great discovery in the fashion industry. Gabardine is a fabric that perfectly repels water, but it is well breathable, it will undoubtedly last you a long time. And in 1895 there is an officer's raincoat, which was mentioned above. Still later, in 1919, the King of England confers a royal patent to Burberry.
After a certain time, the famous cell appears. The cloak came into fashion not immediately, but only after the appearance of H. Bogart in 1942 in Casablanca. After that, film stars start to wear it, and comic book characters, thanks to this, the trench is gaining popularity.
In the 1950s, the women's trench was released. Now he becomes an indicator of social status.
In the 70s, the cloak personifies rebellious subcultures. In the 80-90s it becomes a garment among intellectuals and artists. In this regard, the trench is gaining even more popularity and is replicated by other brands, but does not lose its uniqueness.
After the appearance of Burberry trench coat, neither the cut nor the general details have changed. Trenches of that time still remain relevant and stylish.
Features and benefits
For the manufacture of raincoats mainly use durable gabardine made of cotton, which is treated with water-repellent impregnation.
Trench was created for officers, hence the characteristic details:
- two sides;
- yoke and a cut behind;
- turn-down collar;
- shoulder straps and belt.
Now a new trench is about 1,500 euros, but it can be found cheaper, for example, on websites and in vintage stores. If you want the original Burberry trench, you can buy it on the ru.burberry website, it will cost an average of 150,000. Do not forget to add a belt, you need to tie it carelessly to give the image a relaxed look.
The main feature of the trench is the traditional length to the knee and a little lower, but there are also long models.
Trenches are:
- straight,
- fitted
Unusual and collar cloak. Its lower part is fastened with a button or a buckle, this function well protects the neck from the wind. Behind there is a yoke, which is fastened with a button. On the pockets there is also a button, and there are valves, and the sleeves are tightened with straps.
A trench coat should be selected one size larger so that you can wear a jacket or sweater under it, since it is not warm in itself. But do not forget, if you take a too spacious cape, you will look like Colombo from the series.
Trench looks best with a man's suit. Although with a trench, you can easily wear jeans and warm sweaters. The most important thing is not to wear sneakers or sneakers, as all the same trench - classic clothes.
Another feature - a raincoat is more spring or autumn, so you should not wear it with sandals.
Color solutions
The color scheme is very diverse.Classic raincoats are made in beige tones, although recently black and even light lilacs have become popular. Trench coats come with or without lining. The beige trench coat is easiest to combine with clothing and accessories.
Black trench looks very good on any girl. A special feature is that it is difficult to pick up shoes and gloves, since everything can merge into one black spot.
In addition to standard colors, there are collections in green, blue, red, purple, honey, and even pink.
Each collection is dominated by its shades: muted or saturated, delicate and pastel.
I would like to pay special attention to the single-color Burberry collection. It presents models in black with white patches, as well as a variety of styles.
