The fabric’s smooth, low-maintenance finish makes this an everyday outer layer you can rely on—from commuting and business-casual looks to weekend city strolls.

Material Details — About the Fabric

Fabric: 100% polyester (polyethylene terephthalate, commonly abbreviated PET). Polyester is a fully synthetic, thermoplastic fiber widely used in outerwear for its durability and color retention. It can be finished to resist wrinkles and light moisture and is often selected for pieces where shape retention and easy care are priorities.

• Typical polyester characteristics: durable, abrasion-resistant, quick-drying, colorfast, low shrinkage, and wrinkle-resistant.
• Performance notes: naturally hydrophobic (dries faster than many natural fibers), may feel slightly smooth or satiny, and can be treated for water repellency or anti-static performance.
• Sustainability tip: polyester is oil-derived and not biodegradable, but recycled polyester (rPET) is increasingly common and reduces reliance on virgin plastics. To limit microfibre release, wash less frequently and use a filtration or capture bag if available.

Fabric Advantages — Pros & Cons

How to Measure — Body and Garment

Accurate measuring makes the difference between a coat that fits perfectly and one that only almost does. Use a soft measuring tape and have someone help for the most accurate results.

Body measurements (how to measure yourself)

• Bust/Chest: Measure around the fullest part of your chest, keeping the tape level and relaxed. Wear the type of undergarment you plan to wear with the coat (e.g., thin bra vs. sweater).
• Waist: Measure around the narrowest part of your torso (natural waist) or where you prefer the trench belt to sit.
• Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips and seat.
• Shoulder width: Measure across the back from the tip of one shoulder to the tip of the other (best with help).
• Sleeve length: With your arm relaxed at your side, measure from the shoulder seam point (or base of neck across shoulder if you don’t have a jacket) down to the wrist bone.
• Body length preference: Note where you want the hem to land (mid-thigh, knee, calf) and compare to product length on the site images.

Garment measurements (how to measure the coat)

• Lay the coat flat on a smooth surface. For chest/bust, measure across the front from seam to seam at the widest point and double that value (this equals the garment's total circumference).
• Shoulder: measure seam to seam across the back.
• Sleeve: measure from shoulder seam to cuff.
• Length: measure from the base of the collar (center back) straight down to the hem.

Selecting your size — practical advice

• Decide on how you’ll wear the coat: for close-to-body wear (thin layers) allow 1–2 inches of ease at the bust; for light layering (knitwear) allow 2–4 inches; for heavier sweaters or multiple layers allow 4–6 inches.
• Compare your body measurement + desired ease to the garment’s bust measurement (or chest circumference). Choose the size where the garment measurement meets or exceeds that number.
• If you are between sizes and prefer a cinched, tailored look, opt for the smaller size; if you want a relaxed, layered fit, size up.

Fit Notes

• The tie waist gives adjustable shaping—cinch for a defined waist or leave open for a relaxed silhouette.
• The coat is designed as a longline trench: hem placement will vary by height—look at model photos to judge where the length lands on different body types.
• If you frequently wear bulky layers, choose one size larger to preserve mobility in the shoulders and underarm.

Color & How to Combine the Garment

Classic trench colors (beige/camel, black, navy) pair easily with most wardrobes; bolder hues add a modern focal point.

• Neutral (camel/beige): Pair with white tees, denim, and leather boots for a timeless look. Add a silk scarf and gold jewelry for polish.
• Black: Wear monochrome or mix textures—black trench over leather leggings or a wool sweater dress creates a sleek silhouette.
• Navy/Olive: Great with denim, cozy knits, and brown leather accessories for an elevated casual look.
• Bright color or pastel: Let the coat be the statement piece—keep the rest of the outfit simple (denim, neutrals) or contrast with complementary accessories.
• Footwear pairings: ankle boots, loafers, white sneakers for casual days, or heeled pumps for a dressed-up finish.

Style & Use Cases

• Work-ready: layer over a blazer or sheath dress; belt at the waist to keep the silhouette crisp.
• Weekend: wear open over jeans and a tee; cuff the sleeves for a relaxed, lived-in feel.
• Travel: wrinkle-resistant fabric and secure pockets make this an ideal carry-on companion.
• Evening: pair with a slip dress and heeled boots for effortless elegance.

Seasonal Suitability

Best for transitional weather—spring and fall—when temperatures fluctuate. With the right layering (sweaters, lightweight insulated pieces) it can also function in milder winter climates. It is generally too warm for hot summer months.

Care Tips & Quick Fit Care Notes

• Follow the care label: many polyester outerwear pieces can be machine washed on a gentle, cold cycle or professionally dry cleaned.
• Empty pockets and remove accessories before washing or storing.
• Hang on a sturdy, shaped hanger to maintain shoulder structure.
• If static builds up, use an anti-static spray or a friction-reducing fabric sheet when drying (if tumble drying is recommended by the care label).

Care Guide — Keep It Lovely Longer

1. Spot clean first: For small spills, gently blot with cold water and mild detergent; avoid aggressive rubbing.
2. Machine wash (when allowed): Turn coat inside out, fasten closures, place in a mesh laundry bag, wash on cold gentle with mild detergent. Avoid bleach and strong detergents.
3. Drying: Hang-dry on a wide hanger in a well-ventilated area away from direct sunlight. If the care label allows tumble drying, use the lowest heat and remove promptly to reduce wrinkling.
4. Remove wrinkles: Use a garment steamer for best results. If ironing is necessary, use a low-heat setting and a pressing cloth to protect the fabric.
5. Storage: Store on a wide hanger in a breathable garment bag. Avoid compressing the coat under heavy items to preserve shape.
6. Pilling & lint: Use a lint roller for light fuzz; a fabric shaver can remove pilling gently. Brush with a soft clothing brush to refresh texture.
7. Microfiber mitigation: To reduce microfibre shedding, wash less often, use a microfiber-capture bag, and prefer front-load washers or filters where available.

Style Tips — Ways to Wear

• Belted and buttoned for tailored office polish.
• Open with a contrasting scarf for layered depth.
• Over a hoodie for a smart-casual, athleisure-informed look.
• With cropped trousers and loafers for an upscale-casual vibe.
• Layer over a midi dress and ankle boots for transitional evening outings.
• Roll the sleeves and pair with sneakers for weekend errands.
• Add a statement belt in place of the tie to change the silhouette.

Model Information (How the Coat Looks on Different Body Types)

Product imagery typically includes both a standard-height model and a curve model to illustrate how length and shaping translate across body types. The tie-waist adjusts the silhouette for both narrower and fuller figures; examine product photos and the sizing reference to see where the hem lands on each model and which size they are wearing for guidance.
