Trend spotting: Trenchcoat dresses

The girls here at SugarPoppins are busy trend spotting for the latest look this Fall/Winter as well as next Spring/Summer.

Also, we've had a sneak peek at what the designers have into designing their Spring 2008 collections.

Let's start with the Trench coat. Ahh the trench coat...

It's the style icon embraced by style icons the world over (Sienna Miller, Kate Bosworth, Gweneth Paltrow), and this spring the trench coat is getting the star treatment it deserves. Nothing delivers a dose of instant, effortless chic quite like the trench coat.

Let's take a look at how this fabulous piece of garment has evolved over the years.

The classic Burberry
Admittedly, if anyone was to splurge on a trenchcoat, it would have to be Burberry. You can't get any more classic than this.

This season, Christopher Bailey amazes us with his ever refreshing collection, Luxury Warrior.

We love love love the whole long jacket over a dress cinched with a studded belt look. Very cool. It's definitely more refreshing than the usual Burberry look.

Very edgy!

We absolutely love these updated trench looks. Very chic and cool, dun ya think?

For those of you who love vibrant colours, this is the time to flaunt it. Just look at these hot pink and jazzy blue looks. Very sharp indeed.

So there, you've gotten an idea of what's in for this Fall as well as next Spring. :)

Now, let's look at how you can copy these runway looks into realway looks.

And if you're wondering about the thickness of the dress, on whether it's suitable for our Msian weather. Well fret no more, cos the material for these dresses is cooling and is perfect for those of us working in the office. No sweat babes! ;)
