Whether you’re layering over a knitted jumper and jeans or styling down a night-out look, a trench coat can prove to be a valuable addition to your autumn wardrobe.
And you don’t have to fork over half your month’s wages for a quality buy.
Fashion fans have been racing to Primark to pick up a stylish trench coat for just £36.
Viral look
While the best-selling look is not listed on the retailer’s site, shoppers can pick it up in store.
Made from 100% recycled polyester, the long coat has been described as “Primark’s best dupe yet”.
One TikTok user referred to the look as “the £36 trench coat that’s breaking the internet right now”.
The coat, which is “one layer all the way down”, features tartan lining, visible on the cuffs of the sleeves.
Another impressed social media user ranked the look a perfest 10/10, telling Primark “you’ve outdone yourself here”.
“She came in this almost khaki colour and also a camel with a similar lining but let me tell you this khaki is stunning,” she added.
And shoppers can choose between two classic autumnal colours for this trench.
“There’s the beige and the khaki green as well, like Sezane, and the check [pattern], that looks expensive,” one Primark customer said.
Fans have described the budget buy as being “identical” to the Sezane look, which is a favourite of big names such as Sienna Miller.
Designer dupe
Sezane’s Clyde Coat is currently available for £275 in a Camel shade.
This oversized trench coat features a “classic collar” and middle front button fastening.
It also has a checked lining, visible on the cuffs, and is created with water-repellent material.
Primark’s best buys for Autumn
Heading into Primark soon? Keep an eye out for these items.
Here, Fabulous fashion editor Clemmie Fieldsend reveals her top 6 buys from Primark this Autumn.
Coat, £60
I know what you’re thinking, ‘£60 for Primark?’ Yes it’s a higher price tag than we’re used to from Primark but its worth every penny.
It’s from their Edit range which is more premium than the rest of their collection and it’s made to last.
It’s a mixed wool blend which is durable and warm, plus its a timeless straight silhouette which is slightly oversized and will last you not only this season but for many after.
Bag, £16
Big bags are back… In a big way, finally.
This tote screams luxury with its croc effect and burnt orange colour, plus its great for shoving in your laptop, lunch, spare shoes, purse – essentially everything you need for the day – all for £16.
Jacket, £32
Field jackets are on the backs of celebrities and catwalk models this season with designer brands Barbour, Burberry and Bottega all championing the utilitarian look.
They’re great for chucking over jeans or contrasting with a floral or floaty dress and are the perfect transitional jacket.
Dress, £18,
You may have seen, heard and read that leopard print isn’t going anywhere for autumn, so to encapsulate the trend this dress is a must.
Sleeves? Check. Midi length? Check. Ultra flattering square neck? Check. It’s got it all.
Pair with black knee high boots or your favourite trainers for the day and dress up with gold heels and accessories for the evening.
Jeans, £16
Barrel, balloon, horseshoe – whatever you want to call them, they are the must have trouser shape of this season.
I’ve tried Primarks pair and they fit like a dream, are comfortable and flattering.
So if you think you have nothing that hits the trend mark, swapping your go-to denim for this shape will bring you bang up to date.
Boots, £24
It’s boot season and instead of feeling like you need to buy one in every colour, length, height – its best to stick to a pair that you can wear with the majority of your wardrobe.
My jaw almost hit the floor when I saw that this black, knee-high, block heel with flat point and side zip (so there’s no tug of war to get them off at the end of the day) was only £24.
If you buy one thing this season, it should be these.
