Rachel Sennott Wore Fall 2025’s Trending Trench Coat

A good coat can be transformative; it effortlessly turns a basic look into a fashion moment. And while there are plenty to choose from this season—from suede toppers that make every outfit look a little more luxe to preppy-cool barn jackets—the one I know you’ll reach for year after year is the French-girl trench coat.

The classic piece never goes out of style, but it is hotter than ever right now. For the past few months, I’ve seen everyone reaching for the elegant coat that seamlessly pulls together an outfit: Jennifer Lawrence, Katie Holmes, Kendall Jenner, and, as of this week, Zillennial It girl Rachel Sennott.

Damson Madder Ella Sailor Trench Coat

Sennott gave this timeless coat the cool-girl stamp of approval when rocking Damson Madder’s sailor-inspired trench, an updated take on the classic style that features an oversized collar. It was proof that the coat works for everyone and with everything, whether your outfit is simple, sexy, or even casual-cool. So if it’s not in your wardrobe yet, it needs to be. Below, shop the seven styles I’m loving, from $46.

7 Cool-Girl Trench Coats

Tankaneo Long Trench Coat

The most affordable way to shop this trend is with Tankaneo’s $46 long trench coat. The lightweight style has an oversized fit (so you can wear your bulky fall layers underneath) and is available in multiple colors, including a classic khaki.

Vero Moda Lucia Maria Water-Resistant Coat

Vero Moda’s Lucia Maria coat is another budget-friendly option. And while I obviously love that the style is under $100, I’m also obsessed with the contrasting navy collar and cuffs—it’s like the more low-key version of Sennott’s nearly sold-out coat.

Lauren Ralph Lauren Belted Cotton Trench Coat

This is a piece you’ll wear for years. Lauren Ralph Lauren’s belted trench has a classic fit—big but not too oversized—a chic faux leather buckle at the neck, and is made from a medium-weight cotton blend. Given the brand’s outerwear has a reputation as being timeless and long-lasting, I’d say this is worth the splurge. 

Lioness Soho Trench Coat

This double-breasted option from Lioness is classic and chic but with a small twist. The light beige coat is finished with a contrasting black collar and buttons. While this alone would elevate any look, I’d recommend wearing it with matching black boots.

Zara ZW Collection Short Trench Coat

While Sennott and Holmes both opted for long coats, short trenches are also having a moment this season; the style is still chic but a little more everyday-friendly. This one from Zara reminds me of the casual-cool one Hailey Bieber recently wore, but features one detail hers doesn’t (that happens to be very on trend right now): a stylish funnel neck.

Avec Les Filles Asymmetric Stretch Cotton Long Coat

If khaki isn’t your thing, you could always opt for Avec Les Filles’s midnight blue trench coat. The colorful layer features a black corduroy collar and so many oversized patch pockets, each finished with silver hardware. It’s somewhat unexpected, but still super wearable.
