A longline trench with a structured belt creates waist definition over the full length of the coat which changes the entire silhouette and proportions. The belt creates a visual anchor point at the centre and the length below the belt creates a stronger A-line shape that flatters most proportions. A belted longline trench works best in a fabric with enough structure to hold the shape created by the belt without collapsing into formlessness. The belt detail also means you can adjust the fit and the amount of definition depending on what you are wearing underneath. These longline trench coats use the belt to create a genuinely feminine silhouette within the traditionally structured trench format.
