Jeans and a T-Shirt Look Chicest When Worn With This Emerging Jacket Trend
Elevated and unfussy, this trending jacket is the key to chic spring style.
Not a leather layer, nor a denim jacket, this season, I’m convinced the chicest spring layer you can slip into is the funnel-neck trench.
Inherently elegant, the funnel neckline brings an element of drama, its sculptural shape elongating the neck. Yet, grounded by the timeless design of the classic trench coat shape, the design feels wearable yet notably chic.
Capable of elevating your everyday basics, such as jeans and a tee, the inherently sophisticated layer makes your basics feel much more considered. Making a case for the item's versatility, Olivia Munn stepped out in a sleek interpretation of the trend. Styling her funnel-neck trench with tailored black trousers and delicate strappy sandals, she offered a polished silhouette that leans into the jacket’s inherently sophisticated mood.
Where leather jackets can skew grungy, denim reads casual, and bombers feel distinctly sporty, the funnel-neck trench delivers elegance every time.
While Kallmeyer’s version, worn by Munn, has already sold out, there’s no shortage of equally chic options available this season. Scroll on to discover my edit of the very best.
