Aya & Elen | Suede Trench Coat - Mocha

The coat itself is stunning... rich suede, strong stitching, and a classic trench cut that makes me feel really polished. However, I was shocked (and a bit gutted) when I found out the same piece goes for 95% off once a month. I paid full price, and while the quality is there, I can’t help but feel like I should’ve waited.

This is a fantastic coat. The suede feels buttery soft, and the inside lining makes it comfortable even over thinner tops. I especially love the structure around the shoulders and the way the belt cinches at the waist, flattering and sophisticated. It’s heavier than a regular trench, but that adds to the premium feel.

The tailoring is on point. The lapels fall perfectly, the buttons don’t feel flimsy, and the length is just right to give you presence without overwhelming your frame. I was worried suede would make it look bulky or dated, but instead it feels timeless. Maintenance is definitely required, but it’s worth it for how sharp it looks.

I grabbed this during the monthly 95% off and honestly couldn’t believe it. The quality matches designer coats I’ve tried on for ten times the price. It’s comfortable, elegant, and I’ve already received so many compliments. Suede does need care, but with a brush and protector spray it’s holding up perfectly.

The coat is everything I wanted: soft suede, a flattering silhouette, and proper weight for autumn. But I bought it at full price, and then found out about the massive discount sale afterwards. Still, I can’t deny how much I enjoy wearing it. It’s a statement piece in my wardrobe.
