I waited so long before deciding to purchase this beautiful Trench Coat and for the life of me I still don't know why. This is far from an early purchase from West14th which I have bought many items from and fallen in love with each and every piece. I finally bit the bullet and decided to buy this item, especially as I wasn't sure just how many were left in my size and didn't wish to miss out. I have a few other leather items in this colour, so I knew it would go well with these and many other shades that I owned in other clothing. The Trench Coat arrived earlier this week and like all else from West14th, it fit like a glove. Violetta and staff surely know how to style a garment to fit one's body just right. They are always available to ask questions from in regards to styling the garments, working out sizing and anything else one wishes to ask. The service is second to none. Yet again, the leather is super soft on this garment and I love the extra touches that are added such as two inside invisible buttons to secure the double-breasted design into a neat fit. The band's of leather around the cuffs that secure the sleeves into the right length have buckles, the flap on the back of the shoulder area at the rear is a nice touch that makes it look just like an orginal Burberry Trench. The belt wraps around my body almost two and a half times, yet still looks stylish and sophisticated. It can be worn several other ways as well. The only thing that is missing is the cashmere scarf to drape around the collar, although this I may splurge on from Burberry to utterly spoil myself. My intense interest in West14th, a brand that I had never even heard of at the time, was peaked by seeing a mid-blue New Yorker Jacket which I went on to purchase. I so loved this jacket, plus the many compliments I received, that I indulged in more items that I love dearly. I have never come across another brand that has leather that is remotely as soft as West14th nor designs as stunning. This is my first actual Trench Coat and I couldn't be happier with it. I already have my sights set on my next desires! Thanks yet again Violetta and West14th.
