Fashion BAnk
They say, “April showers, bring May flowers”, that’s nice but are we supposed to do in the meantime? As I type idly at my computer eyes shifting from screen to window and I watch the rain once violent, now softly tap on my window, I begin to wonder, how does one survive a rain storm in style, without sacrificing all sense of practicality?
Is this possible? In times like these, with no other options, are we forced to lug out that dated nylon blazer mom gave us years ago, in order to brave the rain, and must we be forced to pull out those hideous rain boots as well? The answer is simple. No. Below are some of the most fashionable options for anyone caught in a similar fashion predicament:
CLASSIC:
(Burberry Prorsum Double Breasted Bonded Cotton Poplin Trenchcoat $2,395, us.burberry.com)
The Burberry trench coat is a classic staple in any spring wardrobe. For God’s sake Burberry practically invented the trench!
MODERN:
( Ann Demeulemeester Rain Jacket $1,485, antonioli.eu)
For those who prefer the less conventional route, this Demeulemeester may just do the trick. Eye- catching and unique trenches like these are quickly gaining prestige.
VINTAGE:
(Vivienne Westwood Trench Coat $666, farfetch.com)
Some prefer the back to basics aesthetic. Simple, slim and well fitted. Remiscinest of a time when the only mysteries in life were the ones on television, once a week. An era, pre- Law & Order and more Sherlock Holmes.
