12 Months Later, Alexa Chung Is Still Making Us Want This Coat
In September last year, Alexa Chung wore the PVC high-shine trench coat from her second collection for M&S to London Fashion Week and immediately sparked a shiny (quite literally) new coat trend. Fast-forward 12 months, and this season, every single high-street store from Topshop to Monki has its own spin on the vinyl trench. And Alexa is still into the vinyl coat too, as last night she wore her shiny black trench with a Gucci Marmont belt bag over the top and a pair of Victorian-esque lace-up black ankle boots (we love ByFar's similar pair). Keep scrolling to see how Alexa is wearing her vinyl trench this year, and shop our edit of the best around this season.
