Marks & Spencer is selling the ultimate Spring jacket that shoppers are calling the ‘nicest jacket they’ve ever owned’
MARKS & SPENCER always has an impressive collection of stylish garments.
One item we're lusting after is the Short Trench Coat, a welcome alternative to our winter coats, and a brilliant alternative to the classic longer-length timeless outerwear staple.
- Cotton Rich Short Trench Coat, £59 from M&S - buy here
The Cotton Rich Short Trench Coat retails for £59 at Marks & Spencer, which we think is reasonable for such a luxe-looking design.
Longline trench coats are hugely popular, but come the Spring and Summer months we often want shorter-length jackets to coordinate with other looks, but this piece combines both.
A trench coat is an iconic wardrobe staple synonymous with the British designer brand, Burberry.

Over time, the look has trickled down to the high street, with many retailers selling similar designs for less - cue M&S' Cotton Rich Short Trench Coat, which looks far more expensive than it is.
The coat is made from a cotton and elastane blend, which ensures flexibility and comfort for the wearer but also makes this design durable, structured, stylish and breathable.
The design boasts a regular boxy fit, which we think is super chic, whilst remaining flattering on several body shapes.
It boasts a V-neckline with large lapels, wide-fit arms, side pockets, as well as buckle fastening around the wrists.
It also features a storm flap crossover, which conceals the popper front fastening, a style detail that adds subtle attention to detail and elevates the design to make it more luxurious.
The coat is also fully lined for a more fitted structure and warmth, which is also great for those chillier Spring days.
It comes in a classic camel hue, as well as a navy, both of which are available to shop in UK dress sizes 6 to 24.
Wondering how to style? We love it paired with denim jeans, a white T-shirt and trainers, layer with smart trousers and a shirt or blouse, or even a midi skirt and jumper, the options are endless.
What we do know is this Short Trench is a welcome alternative to puffer coats, leather jackets and heavier outerwear items, which we can leave behind in the warmer months.
Shoppers have also noted this coat is "showerproof", or water-resistant in other words, which means it is not only stylish but protective too.
One happy shopper gushed: "I am very pleased with this purchase. I am only 4’8” but the length is good on me.
"An added bonus is that it is showerproof although this is not mentioned on the description. The coat is cut in a flattering shape and is versatile as it looks good with jeans, smart trousers or a midi skirt."
A separate customer praised: "Super short trench coat-just the job for the spring and summer. This jacket can be dressed up or down for smart or casual wear. It’s very reasonably priced and I’ve seen similar garments which are far more expensive. This jacket hangs well and I’m very pleased with it."
