Product Information
Full details
The Karen Millen Funnel Neck Short Trench Coat is an architectural, modern take on classic outerwear designed for the style-conscious adult looking to elevate their smart-casual wardrobe. Its primary benefit lies in its unique, sculptural silhouette and cropped length, which pair perfectly with high-waisted tailoring to create a sharp, polished look; however, potential owners should note that its relaxed, voluminous fit requires careful consideration of under-layer thickness to maintain the intended silhouette.

FAQs
Is this coat suitable for winter?
This trench is made of cotton and is designed as a transitional piece. It is best for mild autumn or spring weather and may not provide enough warmth for deep winter conditions.
How does the sizing run?
The coat features a regular, slightly relaxed fit. If you prefer a more tailored look, you may want to stick to your standard size, as the volume is a design intentionality.
Can I machine wash this item?
No, it is highly recommended to use professional dry cleaning only to protect the structural integrity of the lapels and the cotton fabric.
Does the coat come in other colors?
Yes, this style is available in both brown and beige variations.
Are the pockets functional?
Yes, the side pockets are fully functional and designed to be discreetly hidden within the coat's side seams.
What is the best way to clean the collar?
If you notice light surface dirt, a professional dry cleaner will be able to handle the spot-cleaning without damaging the collar's sculptural design.
Troubleshooting
Fabric appears wrinkled after storage
Use a garment steamer on a low heat setting, keeping it a few inches away from the cotton fabric.
Belted cuffs feel loose
Tighten the buckle adjustment on the wrist straps to secure the cuff to your preferred snugness.
Shoulders losing their structured shape
Switch to a molded or wide-shouldered hanger that supports the entire shoulder seam.

Setup, Compatibility & Care
To ensure your Karen Millen trench coat maintains its form, follow these care and maintenance guidelines:
- Storage: Always hang the coat on a high-quality, wide-shouldered hanger to prevent the shoulder fabric from sagging.
- Cleaning: Given the structured nature of the collar and the cotton fabric, this garment should be professionally dry-cleaned. Avoid machine washing, which may compromise the architectural shape.
- Steam Treatment: If the coat appears slightly crushed from storage, use a handheld steamer on a low setting. Keep the steamer at a distance to avoid saturating the cotton fibers.
- Compatibility: This item pairs most effectively with high-waisted bottoms, including straight-leg trousers, pencil skirts, or dark-wash denim for a refined, modern look.
