Now that we've established that high-rise wide-leg jeans are one of the most important denim trends to know for 2020, the next question on our minds is, naturally, what to wear with them. Katie Holmes has the exact answer to our denim styling question. While out in NYC, the actress wore a pair of wide-leg jeans from Reformation with the ultimate trendy wardrobe basic, a trench coat.

The timeless jacket made an appearance in several key S/S 20 collections, including at Celine (where the styling was very similar to Holmes's) and JW Anderson. There's no doubt that the runways and this Katie Holmes outfit are indications that this "boring" wardrobe staple is set to be an important one for spring. Keep scrolling to take a look at her simple but brilliant 'fit and shop our favorite trench coats to partake in the trend.
