10 Style-setting trench coats for autumn

This checked classic is still going strong, so wrap up and stay cool

IT’S October and it’s getting colder.

The glorious heatwave has long gone and it’s time to ditch the sandals and summer dresses in favour of jumpers, boots and a nice cosy coat.

And if you’re looking to trend up your trench, this year checks are in.

We first saw them on the catwalk in 2017, but a year on they’re still going strong.

So why not swap the boring black for something a bit more jazzy and make a statement this winter?
