Iona Trench

Name: Iona Trench
Brand: Daughter Judy
Price: 17.0 USD
Availability: OutOfStock

A proper trench coat should assume the weather is against you. This one does exactly that and is prepared accordingly. Inspired by the rain-slicked streets of (insert soggy city of choice here) where the forecast is merely a suggestion. It's built with all the details that have quietly proven themselves over time: storm flaps to sheild, a throat latch for when the wind picks up and a belt with its own tiny belts so you don't lose it mid-season. The liner buttons out entirely which means it's just as useful on the colder, determinedly rainy days as it is on the warmer surprise-rain ones. It's the kind of coat that makes bad weather feel slightly less offensive.

Our patterns come in PDF format for use at home, copy shop or projecting with both size ranges included. The DD range comes in sizes XS - XXL and the JJ range comes in sizes 1X - 5X.

Fabric Recommendation

This pattern was created for heavier weight woven fabrics appropriate for jackets and coats : gabardine, canvas, taffeta, nylon, etc. For the liner try a flannel or fleece for the body for warmth. For the sleeves of the liner a bemberg twill or another synthetic liner is best as the sleeves require more movement. However, we believe you can make everything out of anything.
