Believe me, I’ve tested it—this chic COS jacket is bound to be the first piece to fly off the shelves this autumn.

      With a rapid change in weather, I've finally come to terms with the fact that autumn is approaching. Although a few sunny days are forecasted in the coming weeks, it's clear that the new season is on the way, and if you want to get a jump on the transition, now is the time. To avoid a last-minute rush to create autumn outfits, I've started searching for my seasonal essentials, with a great jacket being the first item on my list. Already, I’ve discovered a strong candidate.

      I first came across the COS A-line Trench Jacket (£139) while browsing the new arrivals. The rich burgundy hue, which can easily be mistaken for a deep brown, immediately caught my eye as it is a staple color in the most sophisticated autumn palettes each year. As a new addition to COS's impeccable collection, I decided to visit the store to check the fit and learn more.

      This trench coat style requires little introduction; it has already secured its place as a wardrobe essential, particularly given the unpredictable weather as we transition from summer to autumn. The lightweight design of the trench coat is perfect for this time of year, providing reliability during the cooler spells with some added layering. While the classic trench coat features have been preserved, COS introduces a modern touch with the a-line silhouette of this style. The shape pairs beautifully with the slightly oversized fit of the trench, complemented by the cropped design.

      The elevated quality of this jacket stems not only from its elegant color but also from its sophisticated look. The buttons are concealed to maintain a streamlined silhouette, complemented by discreet slit pockets on either side that seamlessly integrate into the sleek design of the jacket, creating a refined appearance. The sleeves are wide in line with the a-line cut, yet they also include buttons for adjustment as desired. I tried my usual size small, which fit perfectly while allowing for layering with sweaters. Whether it rains or shines, this lightweight jacket is dependable throughout the transitional months, and its timeless style will ensure you reach for it year after year.
