A coat, worn as the whole outfit. Economical. A short trench spliced from emerald satin and black leather, belted with a gold buckle and worn closed as a dress against the skyline. Leather in this heat. I never learn. Knee boots once the evening cools.

A short trench coat spliced from emerald satin and black leather, belted with a D-ring and worn closed as a dress against the skyline.

The coat is a classic trench pattern cut in two materials: emerald satin for the collar, storm flap, sleeves and centre front, black leather for the side panels, the back and the belt's leather trim. Epaulettes, cuff straps and a wide satin belt with a gold D-ring buckle cinch it at the waist. The hem stops well above the knee and hangs uneven where the satin and the leather meet, which is the idea, not a fault.

It is worn closed as a dress, no tights, hair loose in the wind. For autumn and spring evenings on a roof, a dinner with a walk after, a night that starts outdoors. Knee boots when the temperature drops; a thin sandal when it does not. Nothing at the neck, the collar is enough.

A trench is for rain. This one has never seen any.
