Chata answers your fashion question
Q:Ā I love jackets but Iām tired of the traditional jacket. What is a fashionable option that still looks smart?Ā Paula ā Australia
A:Ā Workdays often call for a sophisticated cover up. Enter the trench jacket, one of the biggest fashion statements of the season. A classic shape, the trench jacket works for everyone. Belt it for a dressed-up look or leave it loose and open for casual chic. The difference this summer is in the fabrication and colour; weāre seeing trench jackets in sheer silk, shiny satin and polished cotton. Style Tip: Avoid a belted jacket if you have a fuller body shape; wear this gorgeous style without a belt!
