Because it’s finally… trench coat weather, baby!
(You know, like “sweater weather” but with a bit more drama, a lot more slay.)
We made it. The days are getting longer, your coffee order is switching to iced, and your closet? Oh yes—it’s begging for a little outerwear moment. Jokes aside, I think it’s finally time to showcase spring trench coat outfits because if there’s one piece that effortlessly bridges the gap between looking put-together and actually staying comfy, it’s the trench coat.
A trench coat is one of the most timeless and essential pieces for your capsule wardrobe—truly a classic MVP. Whether you’re layering up for unpredictable April showers or just need something lightweight but chic, spring trench coats are the moment. Unlike their fall cousins, spring versions are made of thinner fabrics, and many double as raincoats—ideal for spring’s “Will it rain? Will it not?” kind of chaos.
Let’s take some outfit inspo straight from my closet and Pinterest trench coat outfit finds that are too good not to recreate.
How to Wear Trench Coat in Spring
Spring Trench Coat With Jeans
Spring Trench Coat for Office Outfits
Spring office outfit is one of the most sought-after topic of the season, and the trench coat is undoubtedly one of the best—and most timeless—pieces to include.
Timeless Plaid/Check Trench Coat
When you hear plaid and trench coat in the same sentence, your mind probably goes straight to Burberry—and honestly, same. That classic check lining is practically a fashion reflex at this point. But in recent years, we’ve seen more affordable yet chic brands like Sézane step in with their own take on this iconic detail, making the look way more accessible. While Burberry has owned this trend for decades, it’s been revived again and again—thanks to brands like Sézane that blend modern tailoring with that timeless heritage vibe.

Trench Coat Outfits with Skirt
You can easily style your trench coat with a skirt—just add a pair of tights and voilà, you’ve got yourself an instant fall trench coat outfit that’s both chic and practical.
Silk Trench Coats
My most recent obsession? A silk trench coat from LilySilk. It’s a dreamy, flowy piece that moves like poetry and feels like luxury. The quality of the silk is unreal—lightweight but structured enough to feel polished. I’ll be posting a full review soon (you know I love a deep dive), but trust me when I say: this one’s a keeper.
Cropped Trench Coat Trend
But let’s talk trends for a sec. You know I’m a big believer in wardrobe staples, but I also love giving trendy pieces their five minutes of fame—and right now, cropped trench coats are having a major moment. The trend quietly emerged last year, but this spring, it’s back and bolder. Honestly, cropped trench coats might just be the new bomber jackets or stackers of the season. (Hot take? Maybe. But I stand by it.)

Color and Design Makes Trench Coat Outfits in Spring
This season, don’t be afraid to play with color. While the classic beige trench coat will always be in style (iconic is an understatement), spring 2025 is bringing a fresh wave of colorful trench coats, playful patterns, and unexpected details. Think soft lilacs, fresh mint greens, and even trench coats with whimsical embroidery—perfect for channeling that “rebirth of nature” vibe straight into your closet.

Organza Trench Coat
The organza trend is hands-down one of the most joyous parts of spring fashion. And every year around this time, I just can’t help myself—I end up adding one (or two) organza pieces to my style edits. Because… well, I can.
It’s feminine, yes—but also surprisingly structural. There’s almost a brutalist elegance to organza that makes it so captivating. That said, an organza trench coat is definitely more of a statement piece than a practical staple—but sometimes, fashion is about turning heads, not staying dry. Right?
Personally? I’m a trench coat girlie through and through. I have six trench coats in my closet—and yes, that happened totally unintentionally… or maybe my subconscious knew what it was doing 😏.
Honestly, the only other item I own in such quantity is probably jeans—which, let’s face it, is fair. But ever since becoming a mom, I’ve been investing more into my outerwear closet. Why? Because outerwear is the easiest way to look chic without trying. Throw on a crisp button-down, comfy leggings, your favorite white sneakers, and top it off with a trench coat? You’re instantly giving “cool mom running errands in style” energy.
So, if you’re looking for fresh trench coat outfits in spring, or wondering exactly how to wear a trench coat in spring without feeling like a detective in a noir film—I got you. And I hope you enjoyed this article as we created for you.
