Is this coat warm enough for winter?

No. It is lightweight cotton with a half lining, so it suits spring, early fall and mild evenings. In cold weather you would need a wool coat or a heavy layer underneath.

The cut is slim fitted, and raglan sleeves plus a belted waist pull it close to the body. If you plan to wear sweaters under it, go up one size.

No. It is cotton, not the gabardine used on Burberry's classic Kensington and Chelsea trenches, and it has no storm flap or throat latch. It handles a drizzle, not steady rain.

How should I care for it?

Dry clean only. Do not machine wash or tumble dry the cotton or the half lining.

It is a short trench, cut to sit around the upper thigh rather than at the knee like a full-length trench. The ruffled hem sits at the bottom edge.

Burberry trenches see the deepest markdowns at end-of-season sales and on outlet or off-price sites. Watch the price history for a drop below the recent range before buying.

Our take on the Burberry Women's Ruffle Belted Short Trench Coat

The Burberry Ruffle Belted Short Trench Coat is a cropped, double-breasted cotton trench in Saltmarsh Beige with a self belt, raglan sleeves and a ruffled hem. It keeps the classic trench details — lapels, button front, belted waist — in a slim, lightweight cut that ends above the knee. It is a fashion piece rather than a weather coat: cotton with a half lining, dry clean only.
