Belted High-Collar Cotton-Silk Trench Coat
Belted High-Collar Cotton-Silk Trench Coat
Crafted For You By 27 September
O NAS
Built around a high standing collar that holds its own shape, framing the neck whether the coat is closed or left open. The front wraps and fastens with concealed snaps, so the closure disappears into the line of the cloth. Sleeves are cut wide and full, falling away from the shoulder rather than following it. A self-tie belt draws the waist when definition is wanted; released, the coat returns to a long, unbroken column. A back vent keeps the length walkable. Handcrafted in Warsaw in limited quantity.
Season
Early autumn through mild winter. Layer it over knitwear as temperatures drop.

SZCZEGÓŁY I PIELĘGNACJA
Designed and handcrafted in Warsaw, Poland
The trench is cut from a cotton-silk blend and finished with a full viscose lining. To keep its line, its softness and its structure for years, we recommend the following.
Clean only when needed
A trench does not need frequent cleaning. For a full refresh, professional dry cleaning preserves the shape and the finish.
Blot small marks first
For small marks, blot gently with a clean, damp cloth. Avoid rubbing. If a cleanser is needed, choose a mild one and test it on an inside seam first.
Air between wears
Hang the coat after wearing and let it breathe in a ventilated space, away from direct sunlight.
Brush for dust
A soft natural-bristle garment brush lifts dust and keeps the surface of the cloth crisp.
Steam to restore the silhouette
Light steaming is the gentlest way to release folds and travel creases. Avoid direct ironing on the outer fabric.
Mind the closure
The concealed snap closure and self-tie belt should be fastened loosely when storing, to avoid pulling on the seam.
Store with intention
Use a wide hanger to support the shoulders and let the belt hang free. Out of season, store it in a breathable garment bag — never plastic — in a cool, dry place.
Protect the lining
Avoid soaking and never tumble-dry. Heat and agitation distort the outer fabric and the lining alike.
Cotton and silk are made to be lived in — the more thoughtfully you care for it, the more beautifully it holds its presence.
FAQ
Will one size fit me?
The trench is cut with generous volume — 133 cm around the chest and 56 cm across the shoulders — so it sits well on a wide range of figures. Full measurements are in the Size Guide, and if you send us yours we will tell you honestly what we think.
How long is it, and will it be too long for me?
146 cm from shoulder to hem. It is a long coat by design, cut to fall full length between 167 and 178 cm. Below that it sits lower still — some women want exactly that, others find it too much. If you are under 167 cm, write to us before ordering.
Can I have it shortened?
Yes, and it takes to alteration well. We would ask you to be certain first — a shortened piece can no longer be returned. Once you are sure, any good tailor can do it, and we will gladly explain how the hem is built.
Is it waterproof?
No. The trench is not treated to repel water. The cotton-silk blend is dense enough to carry you through drizzle, but it is not a rain coat. If it gets wet, hang it to dry naturally away from heat and it will recover its shape.
When can I wear it?
Early autumn through mild winter, layered over knitwear as temperatures drop. The cotton breathes, so it stays comfortable indoors as well as out.
Can I wear a knit underneath?
Yes. The sleeves are cut wide and full, so a mid-weight knit fits without pulling at the shoulder. A heavier knit will work too, though the sleeve will feel closer.
Does the fabric crease?
Cotton with silk takes soft creases through the day that steam out completely. It does not hold sharp folds.
How often does it need cleaning?
Rarely. A trench worn over other clothes needs professional cleaning perhaps once at the end of a season, and only if it is actually soiled. Airing and brushing between wears does more for it than cleaning does.
When will it arrive?
Most pieces are made to order. We require up to 14 working days to produce and ship each item.
Why only one size?
Because we make small runs by hand, and grading a coat across several sizes would mean either producing far more than we can, or making fewer designs. We chose to put the volume into a cut that works on many figures instead.
