I'm thinking of buying my first Burberry trench coat and tried on the Chelsea style in the Honey color at the boutique. It was very slim fitting and somewhat tight in the shoulder/armpit area, and I'm wondering if others who might own this style have found that it loosens up a bit over time? I also asked to try on the Sandringham, which was a bit looser, but they didn't have it in the Honey colour to compare apples to apples.
Also wondering what everyone's thoughts are on the new button color? On the Chelsea they are pale buttons, but on the Sandringham they are still the dark colored (black?) buttons. Just wondering which looks more classic and will stand the test of time. I think up to now, most trenches had the dark colored buttons, so wondering if the Heritage line now with the pale buttons still look classic.?
Thanks!
