Double Breasted Faux Suede Trench Coat

I’m very happy with this coat. It’s stylish but also classic. The chocolate color is very flattering and versatile. I gently machine-washed it with mild laundry liquid and dried it on a hanger, and it looks even better now. (I wash everything before wearing.) It’s long, and it’ll cover your midi skirts and dresses so nothing will stick out. Chic!

The coat is substantial and I like the faux suede fabric but it is a little stiff and there is too much embellishment on the cuffs and belt. Btw the cloth belt in some of the images above is not the same belt that comes with the coat. I wouldn’t mind a plain belt. I received the belt with the gold embellishments that matched the cuffs and it is quite ugly and makes the whole thing look cheap. Where does that fabric belt come from? I’ll probably return this coat.

I’ve had a long dark brown suede trench on my fashion wish list for years. But real suede is out of my budget. I decided to try this and it truly exceeded my expectations. It is a beautiful, rich dark brown color. The material is heavy and it looks really nice in person. It one of the best faux suedes I have ever seen and I am very picky about faux leather. Do not sleep on this! I sized up for a looser fit but it ended up fitting my TTS for me. Still enough slouch for a relaxed look and layers. It is a true long length for my 5’9 frame. Might need to be hemmed below 5’5. Highly recommend!

This was a last minute anniversary sale purchase for me based on all the 5 star reviews. While I love the style, the fact that it’s fully lined and the fit (may be slightly narrow in the hips), the faux suede material looks and feels like felt & is very stiff. I also noticed a chemical smell. I envisioned so many chic outfits with this coat, but sadly this is going back.
