Coat of Honor
Fact: Trenches are timeless, and this day-to-night head-turner is that and then some. The sleek knee-length design with a one-button closure puts a modern spin on the classic. Made of softer-than-soft vegan suede, it comes in a single universally flattering oatmeal shade that took months of tweaking to perfect. And trust us, it was well worth the wait.
