By now, you’ve probably noticed that cropped trench coats are everywhere in 2025. Endorsed by the likes of Kylie Jenner, Emma Roberts, and countless fashion insiders, this modern reinvention of the classic trench coat feels effortlessly contemporary and pairs seamlessly with key wardrobe staples. While there are plenty to choose from, the fashion pack has recently approved a high-street hero: the M&S Short Trench Coat. The best part? Vogue Williams is also an avid wearer of the jacket.

In an Instagram reel shared with her 1.1 million followers, Williams styled the M&S Short Trench Coat with other M&S favourites, including a classic tee, wide-leg washed-out black jeans, and pointed-toe heeled mules. If there’s one thing we’ve learned from the TV presenter, it’s that when she recommends a product, it’s bound to be worth the hype.

‘I have an addiction to jackets, and I love this so much,’ Williams told her followers. ‘I have one similar, but I had to to get it, as it’s perfect for spring, I love it with jeans or a pair of shorts, and it’s so lightweight making it such a fab jacket.’

Crafted from lightweight, water-repellent Stormwear™ fabric, the M&S Short Trench is designed to be your hardest-working wardrobe staple, keeping you dry during unpredictable British spring showers. With a chic cropped cut, double-breasted collar, and classic storm flap, it effortlessly blends timeless tailoring with modern comfort, thanks to its added stretch, making it the ultimate throw-on jacket. It also comes in a nautical-themed navy colourway, perfect if cream isn’t quite your style.

Consider styling the cropped trench with other capsule wardrobe favourites, from boxy tees and boho-inspired tops (M&S has plenty of Sienna Miller-style blouses) to classic denim, tailored trousers, or this season’s trending satin skirts. For footwear, opt for ballet flats, kitten heels (like Williams herself), or, for a casual off-duty look, fashion’s favourite trainers – think Adidas Sambas, Spezials, or Gazelles.

Shop the influencer-approved jacket below, before it sells out. Like any other M&S jacket, we predict it’ll fly off the shelves, so we suggest that you act fast.
