Ah, early fall: the classic trench's favorite season. Whether you're still wearing your Burberry trench lined in perennially chic Nova check -- first crafted in 1856 -- or have updated with a slight twist on the classic over the years, you'll still want to make room in your closet for Burberry's latest, most fashion forward group of Fall 08 trenches. Burberry's Creative Director Christopher Bailey showed new shapes on the runway like the Cocoon Trench or the Tulip Trench, both of which cut a more feminine silhouette. Burberry continues to experiment with fabric -- trenches cut from silk chiffon, metallic silk that looks more liquid mercury than overcoat as well as distinctive quilting.
The trench at right retails for $3,995. See more of the season's modern trenchcoats at Burberry's web shop.
