TRENCH COAT THROWDOWN: Is Fast-fashion Up To The Challenge? 🧥🧥🧥 

I Will Never look at A Trench Coat the Same Ever Again 💛 😊

I still feel super lucky that I grabbed a Mango trench coat at 65% off for INR 2800 ($33) recently. It's actually 100% cotton and does have the ridges to look out for with the storm flap. I also like that it is lined. One of my best buys ever.

Your video came at a perfect time! I too is looking for a perfect trench coat! Thank you for making the video, very helpful!

You are sooo clever. I have 10 trenchcoats in my closet, but I learned so much watching your video❤ Cant wait to see more videoes😊

Any U.S. viewers: Dillard's now has Antonio Melani clothing made with Loro Piano fabrics (top notch). The prices aren't cheap, but great for what you get.

I see your new video, I Like, then I watch! No regrets, what’s not to love? I really love your classy, ladylike, elegant style. I’m so glad it’s “in-style” to look elegant again! I’ve been waiting for this “trend” since the late 90s. For me, it never left❤

I didn’t know about trenches so much, great video 🌸

Great review. I recently bought the Massimu Dutti one 👌🏻❤️

Loved the video!…been looking for a tench coat, so this was great timing? Thank you 😀

This has been a great video Mariana 😊I really enjoyed your attention to the details of each trench coat. I do agree that the Uniqlo and Massimo Dutti versions are by far the best. A trench coat is a versatile piece of outerwear and having a good quality one is important. For myself, I would be tempted by the Uniqlo version mainly due to the reasonable price.😊

Love the Uniqlo one the best, love that sand color! I have about 4 trenchcoats which I always wear traveling👍👍

Wow this is really helpful! We are on the journey of finding the best trench coat!!❤❤

Extremely happy with my classic one from London Fog with all the features you mentioned PLUS leather buckles, a removable hood and removable liner attached with buttons making it very versatile and button closure at the pockets, classic knee length. I love it! Suggest checking it out.

Great video and super helpful!! I was looking for a trench coat, and after watching this ordered the Massimo Dutti! 😀

I bought one in Hobbs, 96 % cotton and perfect fit. I am also 159 cm, and I got the petite version. Perfect length on arms. 👍

Loooooved your video. Thank you! 🙏❤️

Thank you Mariana! You have really helped me in my decision to purchase a trench coat.

Such a great video! New subscriber!

Mariana, loved your insights. The good thing about a higher quality trench is that it will last for years on end! Two brands that have stood out for trench coat quality for me personally are Talbots and Ann Taylor! I have a trench coat from Talbots that is now going on it’s 15th year! After this long I have only had to re sew one loose button! The fit is impeccable! Thank you again!

Excellent much needed video, clearly showing the difference in quality. I've searched for the perfect trench for literally years, and never found "the one" for a petite person, like myself. I currently wear an M&S one (waterproof) and a Jack Wills shorter one, which is nicely stylish, but my dream is to own a Burberry, even a thrifted one would be acceptable and probably around £350. I liked the Unique trench best.

Very helpful. Been looking for the right trench coat for about 2 yrs.

I love my London Fog trench. I’ve had it for years and it still looks great.

My mom gave me her 1998 Aquascutum slim-fitting trench coat and it's incredibly gorgeous AND function very well.

The one from mango seems to me to be very well made as well.

Great video you saved me from buying that Zara Trench coat, thank you! Will definitely buy either the Massimo or Uniqlo.

I thoroughly enjoyed this video! Thank you for your attention to detail. Mango also sell a good quality trench coat. I purchased mine almost four years ago and it is still in great condition.

Great video! Learned so much. Recently bought a trench and happy to say all the details you mentioned are there. The price-point was higher but I purchased it on sale and am happy with it. It’s by Theory. I also have a classic vintage Burberry in black that I got second hand around 12 years ago and love it. The Massimo Dutti looks fabulous on you with the warm tone against your complexion. I have to stay away from those unfortunately because I have cool coloring, but still love Massimo for wardrobe staples like this 🫶🏻

Hello Mariana, Thank you for the timely post. I live in Northern California where we can unfortunately go years with out needing a trench coat. The last two winters have been wet here and I have been thinking about buying a new one. I have two now and neither of them do the job properly. I really love the idea of getting a wool gabardine trench coat but those are really hard to find and an affordable pricepoint. Two brands I am considering are Everlane and Quince. I will definitely look out for the reinforced stitching on the back of the collar and a more substantial belt thanks to you. One added wrinkle here in suburban America is that we are in and out of our cars constantly and a full length trench or coat can feel cumbersome.

Wow wow wow! Best trench coat review ever! I have a few ones (beige from The Curated, Navy from COS, and light olive from Lululemon which is the one I wear the most) I want to add a black one to my wardrobe so I think I'm going for Uniqlo - I got a rain coat by Uniqlo 4 years ago and it's still in a great shape! The Massimo Dutti coat looks great on you and I agree, this darker shade of beige suits your complexion best!

Hello, I write from Brazil and I loved the video! I would just like to add that at Zara they always have 2 or 3 options for trench coats. I bought one 5 years ago and it was definitely a great investment. It is very similar to Massimo Dutti, it has all the qualities and the price in Brazil is around $134. Perfect fabric and finish. I will use it again this winter which is almost here. Thank you for the video, super well explained! Kisses!🙏🏼🙌🏼🥰🌷🇧🇷

Love this trench coat review ❤ I wish I had seen this before I bought one 😂

Thank you Mariana We cannot get Massimo Dutti in Australia, but I am definitely thinking about the Uniqlo trench!

Thank you for such a thorough review! I love my Karen Millen trench coat. It is 100% cotton and I would say the quality (and style!) is quite good. Highly recommend! I bought mine a few seasons ago. It is a two piece which allows me to wear the top half as a cropped jacket and it is double breasted. I can wear the skirt alone as well.

Thank you so much... I am impressed! I am French....and I appreciate the way you explain every single détail. Very professionnal. Thanks to YOU , I will go for Massimo 😉

Re the third trench (UNICO.). the belt is made to tie like the Burberry

Very useful video and a great review! I am set with lighter coats this season. Wanted to recommend Club Monaco but sadly when I checked their website they no longer had a classic cut of the trench coat this season. One is a super short one, another is a baggier version in what sounds like a cheaper flimsier version. I lucked out a couple of years ago and bought a great trench coat from Club Monaco, good fabric, all the classic details and back vent, a leather bucle. I love it. Brook's Brothers has a classic trench coat and judging by description (100% cotton, made in Portugal) it is well made. It's is double the price from Massimo Dutti though. Made

Great video! Would be helpful if you mentioned sizes you tried in the description.

I got a nice London Fog trench coat on amazon at a reasonable price. A lot of influencers swear by the Drop trench coat on Amazon as well. The Lond Fog was more money but worth it. Chris

very nice informative video

Massimo dutti es la más elegante ❤

I have the first coat from H&M. This is a pure fashion piece. It is well structured and easy to clean and it does not crease as much as your classic trench. The length might not suit the tall girls im 5.2 and its hits me just over the knee. This price point is excellent for those you wants to wear the trend.

GREAT VIDEO. I am subscribing.

Mariana!! Same pinch! I too don't have any, but I am fashion designer so I am planning to make one, the classic piece needs to be there😊

I wish I had seen this before I bought mine but I got a great one in navy . Well made ,lining and hits right below my knee. I am also 5”2 I think it was from mango.

another video like this with the sezane scott trench 🙏🏼

Stefanel and Comptoir des Cotonniers are two brands that sell nice trench coats, too.

This was a great video, very informative. I have a vintage Burberry but I really like the look and quality of Banana Republic cotton trench coats. However, they are made far too big and overwhelm my 5'3" frame. ❤

Thanks for the thorough review! I do think it depends on what a person is looking for in a trench - for example, I'm not a fan of the original Burberry coat (gasp!), it just looks costumey to me at this point. Instead, I prefer coats that are a little bit oversized and less structured and that have fewer details (no epaulettes or stormflaps if possible) and are a lightweight material, almost more like a duster coat. With those I also think it's fine if they don't have a lining. Of course I lose a bit of functionality then but if it's pouring outside I usually take an umbrella or an actual raincoat.

Would love to see 100 years of fashion 1924 to 2024 incorporating classic styles of the 50s, and how did the classics fared thru the 60s and 80s. Grace kelly, both Hepburn's and etc. Thank you

London Fog has a great trench coat with waterproof material, detachable HOOD, epaulets, nice looking buttons, chest storm flaps, ventilated back flap, wrist cinchers, waist belt that can be secured to the back with a button, neck hooks, and many other well-though out details. It's about perfect, for the same price as Uniqlo.

I got a great london fog trench thrifting. Like brand new

Thanks for the Vogue article! I thoroughly enjoyed it😊 I absolutely agree that the Massimo Dutti trench coat is the best of the ones you reviewed - that colour looks great on you. Another brand to consider when looking for a trench coat is Hobbs - their trench coats are water repellent (or 'shower resistant' as they themselves say), look amazing with all the classic features, are good quality, and their prices are not insane (i.e. upper high street prices, though on the lower end - currently ab £200). I recently purchased an olive/light khaki green trench from them and the lining is nearly 60% cotton! (It's a fashion miracle!) I also know that they have other trench coats with lining made of approximately 50% viscose.

I bought both massimo and burberry trench coats last time i went to Europe… so good. Massimo had other colours so I got a blue one. Zara has different ranges of trench coats and one I bought 10 years ago was just as good as Massimo, whichI still wear today

If the Uniqlo trench coat had the storm flap at the back, I would buy it. It doesn't seem quite right without it.

Great episode. Investing in a good quality classic trench coat is really worth it. I found a beautiful trench coat by the Japanese retailer Muji several years ago ( here in the UK) just under $200. I am still wearing it! Not sure if you have Muji in the USA? I agree Massimo Dutti makes lovely and good quality design classics.

hi there, what do you think about the mujii one? thanks

I got a 90% cotton one from h&M 's divided line.

I have a Massimo Dutti French coat! In khaki. I only found it after a few fails though... I would have loved to have you😮r excellent thorough vidéo earlier❤

Thank you so much for your review. I am also of similar height and build. I hope the Uniqlo trench comes back in stock (out of stock in xs at the moment). I should have bought it as soon as the collection came out 😓

Max Mara ..... My usual trench ...... But they normally cost over $2000. However, I got a super trench for $250 from Hobbs - I fell in love with the bright cornflower blue

Love the video! I just wish that in your modeling footage you could’ve shown us the back, as that is usually where most of the trench coats failed to fit my style

Ciao, che bella recensione, complimenti, adoro i trench coat anche se preferisco i "vecchi" impermeabili in nylon anni '60.

Love your analysis

I have searched it for years and finaly last year I have found the right one: the Massimo Dutti one! And I am really tall 181cm but fits perfectly ( large). And it was in discount….

Great video! Thank you. What size did you get in Massimo dutti?

Just to add some comment: I have this Massimo Dutti trench for over a year (mine is the same model, but in a Olive/dark Green color). What I love about it is that it doesnt creases, e its quite resistent (I am not extra careful and mine still looks fresh and new despite all the intense wear) and I dont like the belt just like you reviewed it, but I just tied it in the back and its good. I dif Go on a quest when buying it and used a lot of time to look for a trench and another one that I found to be quite good was from a premium line of Mango. But I love the Green color of mine and the stiching was indeed better so MD was the winner. Cheers, Beautiful Mariana! 😘

Try London fog 3/4 length trench coat so nice 👍

What size you got from Massino Dotti ?

Check out Sezane’s Scott Trench Coat

what size did you get for massimo x

About 10 years ago i bought an h&m Trenchcoat with a flared lower part for around 60 Dollars. Still have it, held up fine, 98% cotton. Probably hard to find such a piece today tho

Would you say the massimo is warm or cool toned? I look better in cool tones and it’s hard to find a trench coat in cool tones.

I saw on from massimo dutti with this fabric information: OUTER LAYER viscose 52%, acetate 48% LINING polyester 100% Which Contains At Least: 100% Rcs Certified Recycled Polyeste Is it okay to buy or should I better not?

I actually own the H&M one. I bought it three or four years ago when it was still €49,-. Since I needed it only for a special occasion and knew I wouldn't wear it on a regular basis the cheapest version was good enough. I would like to add that the fabric is really heavy - I don't like it.

Nothing beats a classic Burberry's trench coat!!!

This was so interesting!!!! I learned so much

Great video, thanks Mariana, can you check out a Gap trench soon?

I Have a very nice trench coat but I gain weight then it becomes to tight, I want to look for a new one and this video is just in time, thanks alot

Good info! Side note, I know you have 0 control over this but one of the ads during your video was for Shien, it made me laugh because you’re talking about finding a good quality trench and shien pops up 😂

Sadly the Dutti one doesn't come in my size. I got one from old Navy a couple of years ago that is nicely structured but not high end. I'm still looking for the high end one. In the meantime this one will do. I had a 100% cotton one from the Gap and it was awful. It soaked through immediately.

It is so hard to find a good one. I am looking for a black one, not too long, fitted ( they are so baggy nowadays) and the most important, not 100% cotton as it is too much wrinkles prone but not 100% polyester either (something with gabardine or tencel), and I just can't find one.

Very interesting, thank you! I ran to check if all the features were integrated into my trench coat 😅 and they are!! Check out the brands Esprit and Holland Cooper for stunning trenches!

FYI, those parallel, multiple lines or stitching are called trapunto stitching.

Hi Mariana, it's my first time on your channel. I wanted to say thank you for taking the time to make this video, I very much enjoyed watching it. I also watched couple of other videos right after to determine what body type you are. My initial guess was you are Kibbe Body type Flamboyant Gamine and after watching your H&M haul of your favorite pieces for last summer, I knew I was right. The reason why you have not found the right trench coat yet is because you are looking at the designs that are made for either Dramatics, Soft Dramatic or Soft Naturals (like me) I'm Kibbe Body type Soft Naural with a classic essence and none of the trench coats you showcased in this video look good on me. They are meant for Dramatics, Soft Dramatics and Natural body types. You are Flamboyant Gamine and therefore those coats look massive on your small frame. If you are not familiar with David Kibbe, I highly recommend you watch videos about his Body Typing based on Yin/Yang balance. Aly Art, Alyssa Rudman, Merriam Style and Elyssa have made tons of video on Kibbe body typing. I will link them below for you. Also look at the 7 Style Essence to further understand how certain styles work or don't work on you. And finally I will link a web site called Sew your Kibbe. It will explain what styles of clothes look good on what body types. I hope you look into this, if you haven't already. It will open up a whole new world to you. My way of shopping and styling changed completely once I understood what works for me and what doesn't. Good Luck to you and have fun 😊😊😊 Sew your Kibbe doctortdesigns.com/wardrobe-planning/sew-your-kibbe/ Aly Art - Flamboyant Gamine - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-qaHZ9-AIzkk.html Aly Art - Kibbe Body Type - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-hkf33PHuD-c.html Alyssa Rudman - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-7Qlr5s2jEJw.html Merriam Style - Trench Coats - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-5viXHjhGSxI.html Merriam Style - what body type is this - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-b3DWznpwoeI.html Elyssa - Intro to Essence - ru-vid.com/video/%D0%B2%D0%B8%D0%B4%D0%B5%D0%BE-cJF3OIWfVQ8.html

TRY THE TRENCH COATS FROM LONGON FOG.

I like Massimo and H&M. I know its weird, but I do like the syle of H&M, I just wish it was a better material

I returned my H&M trench coat. Thank you for this video.. it was on time 😊

Dá uma olhada e vê como se amarra um trench. Vc dá um nó no cinto e não usa a fivela. Tirando isso, o conteúdo do seu vídeo foi ótimo .👏👏👏👏

I have two H&M Trenchcoats and they are both made out of cotton. I paid 60€ for each (regular price is 70€).

I bought the Massimo Dutti one and the buckle of the belt is so cheap it broke the first time I used it and I lost it of course, so I could not even repair it :(

You can try Coach trench, or 😂coach outlet.

Linings are not meant to be natural fabrics. They are there to hold shape and make it easy to slide on and off.

Sezane’s one is very popular among the fashion influencers. Maybe worth trying it?😉

Hello! Thank you for helpful video! What is the size of your Massimo Dutti trench? I’m 5 feet 3 inches, 127 pounds and with narrow hips and shoulders. Am wondering whether to get SMALL or MEDIUM

The belts aren’t too long as you are supposed to tie it in a double knot, as opposed to threading the buckle.

I’m here to redesign the trench coat, it’s useless to me without a hood. Must protect hair do from rain at all costs 😅

This is an influencer. I am buying the Uniqlo trench tomorrow! 😂

I never use the buckle. What I do is I make beautiful bow and probably thats why the belts are long, because many women do it li ke

You didn’t mention the most important thing about the Massimi Dutti coat, what is the fabric (and lining) composition? I’ll pay a lot more for a breathable lining, even if just rayon.

What size did you get for uniqlo? Im 5”2 under 100 pounds. Not sure if i need xs or xxs
