Adding a trench coat to your capsule collection is a smart choice due to its timeless appeal. They are particularly useful during spring and autumn transitional times, when the weather is too mild for a heavy coat but not quite warm enough to skip a jacket altogether. With spring around the corner, M&S has re-released one of its most popular and coveted s – the Belted Longline Trench.
Retailing for £79, the trench is available in two classic colours—buff and black—and is offered in sizes 6 to 24. The elegant design includes a double-breasted front, and full lining. It also features traditional elements such as epaulettes, buttoned cuff straps, and a removable belt. The classic trench has more than 240 reviews – 201 of which are rated five stars.
One delighted customer referred to its timeless appeal, commenting: “I love the classic styling of this coat. It will be perfect for spring to slip over dresses on cooler days. I envisage it worn with a dress and some kitten heels for a smart occasion eg an outing to the theatre. Love it!” reports Birmingham Live.

Another person purchased it for their daughter, sharing: “My daughter loves this trench good quality looks so classy and showerproof too.” Meanwhile, a third buyer complimented the material, remarking: “Really pleased with my purchase, fantastic fabric it has weight to it, gives a great shape and shower resistant as stated!”
A delighted customer raved about their purchase: “I bought the caramel-coloured one, perfect fit, very pleased.” However, another review was mixed, with the buyer saying: “Absolutely gorgeous coat, love the fit and style but unfortunately only three stars as the material attracts fluff like crazy! Can’t wear any different coloured knitwear with it, which is a shame.”
The model donning the buff trench coat showcased it alongside light-wash straight-leg jeans, pristine white trainers, and a stylish three-quarter zip jumper. Opting for contrast, the model in the black trench coat chose an elevated look, pairing it with a smart grey sweater and skirt combination, complete with tights and classic black loafers.
