Burberry needs to make trenches in petite sizing so us short people don't drown in the coats.  Donna F - Your suggestion made me laugh, but I'm pretty sure you are correct.  ;) Firecracker and Angie - The coat is black, but it's a cotton sateen so it has a bit of a sheen to it. Style Fan and Bijou - I'm glad to hear your Burberry trenches are still getting worn after a decade.  Did you have to find a special (high end?) dry cleaner for your coats? Tracey - 50 was great... It's certainly better than the alternative.  Happy 51 to you!

Just a few weeks away from 51 , but really enjoyed my 50th year of life!   JAileen on "My first Burberry trench" https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/my-first-burberry-trench#post-1722313 Fri, 02 Sep 2016 02:20:29 +0000 JAileen 1722313@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ Wow!!
