I cannot fit London Fog, they cut too wide, but they make a great trench. I vote for any of the LF second. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trench-advice#post-986733 Sun, 21 Jul 2013 14:30:55 +0000 Angie 986733@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I vote Ellen Tracy. It has a great fit. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trench-advice#post-986646 Sun, 21 Jul 2013 07:09:57 +0000 rachylou 986646@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I have to say I love London Fog too. And they actually function well, as <i>coats</i>. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trench-advice#post-986494 Sun, 21 Jul 2013 01:22:25 +0000 Parsley 986494@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Tough choice- they're all nice!</p> <p>I'd say that #1 is the most unique, first of all because it's white, and second because of the interesting texture. I've had good luck with Kenneth Cole coats for my apple shape.</p> <p>#2 is one of Angie's picks, and she mentioned that it was a good length for dresses, so I don't think there are any worries there. I like the peplum detail in the back.</p> <p>#3 is the only one with a removable liner, so if that's important to you that's a plus.&nbsp;</p> <p>I vote #1 or 2 because they have more interesting details.</p> <p>But if you want straight-up classic I'd go for 3 or 4.</p> <p>How wishy-washy is that? Probably no help at all! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trench-advice#post-986482 Sun, 21 Jul 2013 01:12:04 +0000 Transcona Shannon 986482@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Having purchased a London Fog jacket in the spring, I can't say enough about the quality. I love the look of this classic trench. It's my favourite of the ones you've linked to. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trench-advice#post-986475 Sun, 21 Jul 2013 01:04:54 +0000 donnat 986475@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>MNsara said it </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trench-advice#post-986396 Sat, 20 Jul 2013 23:49:37 +0000 MNsara 986396@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Okay, they all have great potential, but my fave for length, buttons, and button spacing is the LF Heritage.&nbsp; It looks the most knee length of the four, it has good button size and I like how the double breasted buttons flare out a little toward the top.</p> <p>The other three don't list lengths and look to be possible mid-thigh length. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trench-advice#post-986040 Sat, 20 Jul 2013 15:21:05 +0000 Diana 986040@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like 2 and 4. Now I'm wondering if I should order trenches from NAS too...</p> <p>But you know, if you wanted to go back to NYC to try on burberrys.... I will totally come down and join you. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trench-advice#post-986032 Sat, 20 Jul 2013 15:11:21 +0000 rae 986032@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>These all look like they have potential to me! The first one is listed as "lightweight" - do you want more of a packable shell or a coat? I think it was Denise who said London Fog is a great trench brand. I would have tried those myself if not for my issues with poly linings. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trench-advice#post-986015 Sat, 20 Jul 2013 14:56:25 +0000 Glory 986015@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like 1, 2 and 4. 1 seems to be lighter weight than the others from the pictures. 3 seems bulkier and has more material at the chest/shoulder flaps. Maybe you can weed one more out and try 2? </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trench-advice#post-985936 Sat, 20 Jul 2013 12:52:36 +0000 Ornella 985936@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I like second one best as a style, but I am not good at dressing apple body shape. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/trench-advice#post-985929 Sat, 20 Jul 2013 12:36:28 +0000 Jjsloane 985929@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I would like to get a trench coat and would consider the NAS items. I want one a bit longer (to knees or below) and white or khaki. I am still kicking myself for not getting one of those Burberry's at the consignment store in NYC last year. Should I save in hopes they have some again?<br />Any suggestions on any of these? (I'm 5'8" apple)<br />1.
