Mine is 21 years old and it starts to fall apart now. I will replace it with a new Burberry trench coat as it's well worth the money. I would advise to have it a size bigger so you can wear a wool jumper under it. I also have a Burberry car coat but I prefer the trench coat. The only other brand I would consider buying a coat from is Mackintosh.

Oh wow 21 years old, that's really amazing! Thanks for sharing your story ❤
I’ve learned in life, get what you want and do it the first time. Don’t settle. If you can’t get the item immediately, wait. Save. Stock it online.

So true! I wanted one since I was 16. Thirty later I got one. Spent money on similar ones but would have been better getting one sooner as the price goes up every year. I am finally content. It definitely wasn't an impulse purchase 😂.
This is the first video I watched about Burberry. Glad it was because the video is educational and practical! A year later, I came across a thrift store and bought the exact same authentic coat for only $35. Yes. Authentic. The classic Burberry. Prestine condition. But for a very cheap price! Very thankful to finally have my dream coat. ❤
Oh amazing now i feel like i can reinvent and style my burberry coat! Thank you 😊

I got a Dior vintage trench coat for $160 and it’s my favorite. It has little Dior details throughout. Here in the US I’ve been seeing long and oversize trench coats are trending, but pretty much oversized everything is trending

I just bought a trenchcoat fromH&M. Very nice and will last me for years also...
Basically you can throw that trench on anything, and it'll look good. (haha, you said it too) Bare feet (yes I've done it), inspired by Benjamin Clementine, just haven't tried the topless look yet...maybe when I'm about to do another hand wash...
I like coats that are slim at waist and flare out from the waist down, so flattering - is that what they mean by slim fit one? It looks as though the Chelsea one is the best fitting that criteria? Would you agree? Love the video xx
@AkiCurtis
Жыл бұрын
Yes Chelsea has the slimmest fit out of all of them, it is slimmest on the waist and also on the shoulder. My shoulder is quite narrow and I'm quite self conscious of that, that's why I picked the Kensington instead. You should go in store and try them all out before choosing one, it's a few thousand dollars investment after all xx
Great video, made me laugh so much! I'm wondering what size you normally wear in clothing? You look similar to me - UK 6-8? Not sure which size Kensington to get! Size 8 Chelsea was too snug on me... but I don't want to drown in a 10 Kensington either..!

In the Duty Free shops in Paris Airport, they were selling them for €1,800, no tax. I was hesitant to buy it then and there because the representative was like, “no, don’t buy in U.S. It’s super expensive.” I didn’t believe her, but when I got back home, I was looking online and it was $2,400 before tax. Probably one of the worst mistakes I made. Now I don’t know when will I be in Europe again. And if I would still see that same price. For those traveling to Europe soon, go check the Duty Free shops at the airport before boarding back home.
