Find a piece · Cropped leather trench
The trench that makes jeans look expensive.
A cropped leather trench is the most efficient thing you can throw over anything, jeans, a slip, the gym clothes you'd rather not discuss, and instantly look like you meant all of it.
Acne's is the real-leather version at three grand, and it's a genuinely beautiful coat. The quiet truth is that a good faux one, cut the same short length, passes at any distance you'd actually be seen from, for the price of lunch.

Where it goes
Leather on top, something delicate underneath — the cold-weather play is where that trick gets spelled out.
Over a dress it does the same job in daylight: add a boot, add tights, put a jacket over the top is the entire fall formula, and this is the jacket.
The headline isn't a figure of speech. The wide-leg jean it makes look expensive has a page of its own.
