Hi ladies,
I'm usually found at the Mulberry forum but ever since Salikons bought her first Burberry it's come back to bug me that I should have bought one by now and haven't - friends all have them, not that I follow what my friends do of course. But I have always wanted a black trench coat, and one that sits just above the knee so thought I'd come visit you here to get your expert advice.
I tried Aquascutum for a black trench style coat but am not happy with that purchase - wonky stitching for starters!
So am back on the search, can someone tell me if the Ivybridge coat at Net-A-porter is the same coat as the Classic Trench listed on Burberry's website http://uk.burberry.com/fcp/product/...BLE-BREASTED-TRENCH/10000000009?colour=black?
Also I have been given the name of the outlets but I have not heard of any of these before so assume they are outlet specials, not sure if its worth visiting - has any one got a UK outlet special trenchcoat - the names I was given were:
OS Milan,
OS Sutcliffe,
and Hemswell (sp?)
Not too keen to make the journey out to the outlet if these coats aren't so great, has anyone seen these IRL?
Do you think the Ivybridge is worth the high price tag, currently £595?
Or should I be looking at another brand who produce just as good quality but without the 'premium brand price'?
Your thoughts welcome, thank you.
