It’s because you bought the kids size. It’s not meant to be tapered for kids. More of a throw on coat for kids. I’m the same size as you and you really need to get the adult size US 2. It fits really well. The jacket is a classic staple. Worth the adult prices as you will wear it for years to come.
Thanks for your comment. I definitely agree the adult version is more align with the style I’m after and Chelsea is gorgeous. However, I’m undecided about making this purchase as I’m not a fan of the lighter tone buttons. I wish Burberry would bring back the previous style with more contrast ☺️
Looks like a men's cut. The ladies coats are usually more fitted around the waist, while men's are a little boxy. And it's maybe a size too large. Color and length look good on you.
This is the kids version in size 12 and they don’t specify the style. The length measures 34.5 inches long so it really depends on your height 😊 Here’s the link au.burberry.com/cotton-gabardine-trench-coat-p80694491. One thing, I noticed is the price increase! From ~$1300 to $2250 AUD!! 😮
Don't buy the kid's version because it's made in Italy (made by other factory for burberry). Only the heritage coat in the adult version is worth the investment because it is made in England at their Castleford, Yorkshire factory. This might also explain why their heritage coat cost so much.
Italy is the kingdom of craftsmanship of clothes. All the luxury brand produce there because the italian artisan have the knowledge that nobody have. You don't Know what are you talking about.
@@rossellalaface492 I’m not implying the made in Italy version has lesser quality. Considering that Burberry is a British brand, I’m simply suggesting that their heritage trench coat line is a better investment since it is made in their Yorkshire factory like they always been for almost a century.
I don't believe Burberry make unisex trench coats in this style. Never seen one... ever. That's clearly a men's coat, especially considering that the buttons close the men's way and it being a men's cut. It would just look wrong on you.
Callicles thanks for your message! This is from the Burberry website so 100% genuine. But yes I was surprised about the overall design and quality too. It doesn’t feel as luxurious as the price tag!!
They're sadly genuine. When Riccardo Tisci replaced Christopher Bailey, quality pretty much went down the drain. And along with it, erased about 95% of Burberry's lasting heritage and allure. There was a few months where Riccardo tried to replace the classic tartan pattern with stripes.
The label that's writen on the box it's not what Burberry usualy did. And the packiging itself seems very cheap. And the coat seems also very very cheap
It's because of Riccardo Tisci. When he replaced Christopher Bailey as creative director, Burberry pretty much did a 180 and all their stuff is way overpriced, tacky, and bad quality. Riccardo turned the classic honey and gold packaging to an ugly black and brown. They even changed Burberry's signature font into a plain sans serif that's found everywhere. Visit any Burberry store (that isn't an outlet) and they'll give you the ugly brown package that matches the UPS man's uniform.
BreakfastAtBurberrys I’ve also noticed they’ve started producing tacky clothes with ugly, over stated logos. They’re selling more clothes now so maybe we’re wrong?
@@InstantLuc I don't think that we're wrong, but I will admit that we might be slightly biased in our outlook. If you look into the details of the reports, it shows that most of the 'growth' is from Asia when they started to do the whole logo-mania theme with TBing everything. In terms of flexing, it's more common when it comes to 'new money' countries, which kind of makes sense when there was a historically economic depressed country that comes into an economic boom (for example, China). Being Chinese myself (but born and raised in the US), I noticed that certain brands that are heavily monogrammed (such as Coach in the 00's and LV from late 00's to current) are very popular among Chinese nationals, including some cousins that immigrated from China to the US. Some of my cousins' opinions as Chinese nationals is that they want to have a more obvious show that they can afford quality items in an easy way, even though branding does not necessarily mean higher quality.
@@breakfastatburberrys6413 it's very bizarre but I can agree this is likely the case. Just like the success of many ugly Gucci quartz watches, they big logos are loved by new money. It's ironic considering how Singaporeans and Japanese love understated designs. China is it's own beast. I have no problem with brands serving the market but I do wish they would be more regional. I've been to Dubai, Abu Dhabi, Singapore, Tokyo, Vancouver, LA, Toronto, London and Manchester this year. Every brand carried the exact same inventory in each location except for a few exclusive products in Tokyo. It made it incredibly hard to find a good passport holder. If the big monograms were widely available in places like Shenzen and Shanghai, with limited supply abroad it would be less of an annoyance. If the big monogram products were different and limited to each region, Chinese tourists would get to enjoy exclusivity. Sneakers work this way.
@@InstantLuc I don't think it's that ironic. Japan and Singapore actually had their own logomania before China became the new logo loving monster it is today. However, Japan and Singapore had theirs in an era without much social media, which is why I think they eluded the whole 'crazy tacky rich Asian' stereotype. Some Chinese are starting to get away from logos very slowly, but with more people prospering economically, it just adds more fuel for logos. I completely agree and think that certain items should be offered on a region basis, and that's what kills me. I love the understated items more than heavily branded items. I still remember that hardcore sneakerheads used to have a very jetset lifestyle, just to get that one pair of limited edition shoes in an obscure shop in the middle of Japan. Those were literally the days where luxury was a treasure hunt and an experience, which I think made it all the more rewarding to own the item.

Why don't you do the belt up correctly. The coat is fine, being made to wear extra clothing underneath.
A man's trench coat on a women very rarely looks fine.
What length is this? Short, mid or long?

get chelsea model which is tapered around waist
Yep! I think I’ll go for the Chelsea too ☺️
Im thinking of getting Chelsea model too. Please show how it looks on you
@Agnes will do ☺️ I’m so excited to try!
I got the Chelsea after having a Kensington for 6 years and I love it! My Kensington is nice but too loose. The Chelsea fits so beautiful!
Don't buy the kid's version because it's made in Italy (made by other factory for burberry). Only the heritage coat in the adult version is worth the investment because it is made in England at their Castleford, Yorkshire factory. This might also explain why their heritage coat cost so much.
Thanks Ernest Lesmana! I didn’t know that! I just assumed they’re all the same given it’s 100% cotton 😔

Here is a Burberry Trench for you ruclips.net/video/reakyM4BH-8/видео.html
I realised the clothes were not the problem, it was my face so I started taking care of myself
Its good you sent that coat back.
Thanks for the review it helps a lot
fit is very important...thanks for not compromising for second best especially since it's such an expensive investment
Should’ve got the women’s Chelsea. This one looks like a short men’s Kensington.
I don't believe Burberry make unisex trench coats in this style. Never seen one... ever. That's clearly a men's coat, especially considering that the buttons close the men's way and it being a men's cut. It would just look wrong on you.
Where did you get that coat. Because it's a man's coat, not a womans. And I don't think that's genuin

I really like the darker shade buttons too but they’ve replaced them with the light ones sigh
This is a male version. The flap should be on the opposite shoulder.
@@hotgirlsarehot aww...thanks for pointing it out, I didn't even realise :)
You need smaller size, may be Uk 8 us 6
Thanks BoZ Popcorn! I completely agree with you ☺️
what is background music?? very good :-)
I love your coat, where I can get this with around A$1300?
Hi Lee lee, this is only available online - au.burberry.com/cotton-gabardine-trench-coat-p80011621 ☺️
Do they have a black version? It would be perfect for “school”
(Just a joke I don’t encourage school violence, it’s just a trench coat stereotype)
What on Earth are you talking about?
May I have your height ^^
This coat is meant for 152cm in the size 12 but still fits my height @158 ☺️
