Light trench in viscose-silk
Céline • Spring-Summer 2016
-
Phoebe Philo’s collection for Céline’s Spring/Summer 2016 was a series of propositions to a self-imposed question: what clothes would a woman need for a year of travel?
The show’s final look offered the most utilitarian of solutions: a zippered boiler-suit in green parachute, worn under a matching trench coat in the same fabric.
The coat appears to be inspired by vintage US Army trench raincoats, with a similar double-breasted front and green nylon fabrication.
Céline reimagines this into a womenswear coat by using a sheeny viscose-silk satin in its fabrication, and gathering the waist into a cinched shape for a flattering silhouette that complements its large sleeves.
