Both menswear and womenswear designers updated the classic British trench coat this season. Christopher Bailey's perfect example of spring's modified trench at Burberry Prorsum was a silver paillette-covered jacket that came down the runway through a storm of metallic confetti. John Galliano used cropped versions to vamp up his forties film noir-themed show for Christian Dior, while Phoebe Philo cut the venerable outerwear piece into a sleeveless wrap dress at Celine. For him, texture and color were all the rage—permanently wrinkled at Missoni and bright red and pale blue at Trussardi and Jil Sander, respectively.
