Friends, we’re heading into that weird time of year when getting dressed is hard. It can feel like we’re experiencing four seasons in one day. One minute, you need a trench coat, and the next, you’re sweating so much you’re checking for pit stains. It’s wild stuff. If your wardrobe is ill-prepared for the cooler side of things (read: you don’t own a trench coat yet), we’re here to help.
Trench coats are quite literally the perfect transitional staple. They’re often one of the easiest layers you can throw on as you head into and out of winter. They’re lightweight but warm and designed to be both practical and durable.
The classic silhouette of a trench — oversized fit, waist belt, storm shield, belt loop detailing, relaxed cuffing, and an oversized fit — is also pretty universally flattering. Plus, they make longline and cropped styles these days, so you can switch it up depending on your style choices or needs.
You also don’t have to just stick to a boring beige coat — sorry, not sorry — there are so many more colourways and fabric options out there, like leather (real and faux), suede, tan, black, and pops of colour to help spice up your winter wardrobe.
Lastly, you don’t have to drop $2k and your firstborn just to buy one, you can find plenty of affordable trenches for under $100. You just have to know where to look — or let us look for you.
So, without further ado. Here are the best women’s trench coats we’ve found for the 2025 season.

Fabric: 73 per cent polyester, 24 per cent viscose and 3 per cent elastane.
Colourways: Tan.
Why we love it: Honestly, what’s not to love about a mini trench? They’re so freaking chic! This one in particular has all the classic trench detailing — a self-tie belt, storm flap back, belt loops, relaxed cuffing, and an oversized silhouette only with an abbreviated length. *chef’s kiss*.

Length: Longline.
Fabric: 100 per cent cotton.
Colourways: Beige cotton-twill.
Why we love it: Now, I could have just put the classic Burberry trench in the top spot, but everyone already has it down as a designer wardrobe staple. Instead, I’ve chosen the Ganni one. It’s an innovative take on a classic while still remaining timeless.

Colourways: Dark berry, black and tan.
Why we love it: Cotton On has easily some of the most affordable trenches for this season. They’re basically identical to some of the designer brand’s style-wise, but for a fraction of the price, so if you’re working with a budget, we’d recommend snapping one up real quick.

Alternative affordable recommendations:
Best leather/faux leather trench coat

Ena Pelly Miley Leather Trench
Length: Longline.
Fabric: Leather fabrication.

Best off-white trench coat

Shona Joy Thea Trench Coat
Length: Longline.
Fabric: Cotton blend sateen.
Colourways: Ivory.
Why we love it: We often choose to wear black or tan trenches, but if you’re feeling a little risky, why not add an off-white or bone-coloured one to your rotation? We love this one from Shona Joy. It has a beautiful wide lapel and collar, double-breasted closure, a storm flap at the back and a detachable waist belt.
Alternative off-white trench coat recommendations:
