I ran to Primark for the viral denim trench coat – I’m obsessed and it looks way more expensive than it is
SINCE the seasons have changed we’ve all been looking to update our wardrobes.
And fashion fans have found the perfect coat to see them through the colder months in Primark.
The Denim Maxi Trench Coat is the perfect transitional piece that features classic trench coat details with a modern twist in a denim fabric.
The dark indigo coat has a belt to cinch you in and costs just £34 – not bad for a winter staple.
The much-loved chain took to social media to show off the coat and fashion fans were in awe.
By the looks of comments on social media, it seems the coat will be a sell-out so you better head to stores soon if you want to add it to your wardrobe.
Primark bosses say: “Dressing for cooler weather needn’t feel like a compromise on your unique style and we’re betting, with this trench coat, you might even look forward to the temperature taking a dip!
“Whether you’re covering an event look or stepping out in a seriously edgy all-day style, this denim trench is the perfect piece for the job thanks to its classic details including a pointed collar, sleeve loops, maxi length, and tie belt, all of which have been updated by its utility, spotlight-stealing fabric.
“Wondering how you’ll wear it? We think it’s perfect over everything from a classic jersey set for a sporty feel or over a mini dress and heels for that evening occasion!”
Currently the coat comes in an inclusive size range going from an XXS to XL
The coat can be work with a jumper, trousers and trainers for a casual yet elevated look or teamed with a dress and heels to dress it up.
Over on social media, people were quick to rave about the trench coat and couldn’t wait to get their hands on it.
One person wrote: “She is the moment.”
Another commented: “Looove!! I’ve been searching for denim trenches for weeks.”
“I will hunt every Primark to find this coat,” penned a third.
Meanwhile a fourth said: “Love it!”
Another wrote on TikTok “Ran to @Primark yesterday and got my hands on the new denim trench …obsessed!!!”
And another replied to this with: “Primark price opinions needed pls because I thought this was a steal.”
“I need,” claimed a fifth.
Someone else added: “I need to get me a denim trench coat.”
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.
