Wearing a trench coat with nothing else might be a popular cliché in rom-coms, but when it's done right, the result is far from expected or played out. It's genius. If you don't believe me, just take Gisele Bündchen's word for it. After all, she wore that exact outfit to a dinner in New York City during fashion week. Once you see the look in full, you'll be running to your outerwear closet to copy the styling hack for your next night out.
For the dinner, which was hosted by Frame at Indochine in NoHo, the supermodel donned an all-black leather trench coat from the denim brand belted tightly at the waist in a way that created a dress-like appearance. With it, she wore a pair of Balenciaga knee-high boots, a simple black clutch, and a bevy of gold bangles. That's it—there was no dress or anything underneath in sight.
See how it's done below and shop 13 trench coats that'll mimic Bündchen's chic take on the popular movie trope.
