Cortenne | Classic Tailored Trench Coat

The one coat that never had to reinvent itself.

Kirsten does nothing new, and that is exactly the point. A slim tailored line, a classic lapel collar, statement buttons down the front and pockets deep enough to use — the same formula that has quietly outlasted every trend sent to replace it.

Slim tailored silhouette. Cut close through the body, so it layers over a dress without adding bulk at the shoulder or hip.

Classic lapel collar. The collar holds its shape turned up against the wind or laid flat, which is where cheaper coats give themselves away.

Deep functional pockets. Properly built and properly placed — they hold a phone and keys rather than existing for the seam line.

Reinforced stitching. A coat takes more daily wear than anything else in the wardrobe, and the seams here are built accordingly.

Transitional weather is the hardest thing to dress for, because it changes its mind twice a day. A trench remains the only honest answer anyone has found.
