I’m a fashionable mum – New Look has the ‘perfect’ trench coat for £40… and you can’t go wrong with M&S quality either


THE fashionistas behind an award-winning podcast have shared their go-to place for the ultimate autumn trench coat.

Broadcaster Zoe Hardman and PR guru Georgia Dayton are both mums who co-host the MadebyMammas podcast.

The duo offer career, life, beauty and fashion advice on their weekly episodes. 

On a recent show, one listener wrote in looking for guidance on sourcing the ultimate trench coat for the incoming rainy season. 

“Our high-street is absolutely marvellous,” Zoe responded. 

She then suggested exploring New Look‘s coat selection for a stylish autumn jacket.

The podcaster claimed that you can nab a classic trench coat for around £40. 

And she was spot on with the recommendation. 

New Look’s timelessly-designed Belted Trench Coat is currently reduced to £40.49 from £53.99. 

You can pick it up in shades of black, beige called “stone”, olive, khaki and navy. 

A blurb reads: “This trench coat is a classic style that never goes out of fashion

“Designed in a neutral colourway and featuring a belted waist, it’s a timeless choice that you’ll wear year after year.”


Georgia backed up Zoe’s advice, adding that New Look is “amazing” for cosy season buys. 

She also urged women to check out Marks & Spencer for “such good stuff” where “you know the quality is there”.

The pair then went on to slam the current state of style culture.

They encouraged fellow women to not get sucked into the “noise around fashion” – and told them to wear whatever they feel comfortable in. 

Fabulous Fashion Editor On Autumn Trends

WANT to look fabulous this season? Then listen up…

Here, Fabulous’ fashion editor, Clemmie Fieldsend, says these are the top 5 trends from the hottest catwalk designers for autumn 2024. 

BOHO: The boho revival is a much needed breath of fresh air for autumn and means you can wear your sheer tops, girly frocks and big jeans with heavy duty boots.

But if the clothes aren’t for you think, big accessories like slouchy tote bags, big earrings and bigger bangles. 

TEXTURE: Be it smooth leather, sumptuous faux fur or soft suede, textures are everywhere this season.

They add depth to your look, making you stand out as well as look more expensive. 

BURGUNDY: Maroon, oxblood, berry- whatever you choose to call it fashion is seeing red this autumn. 

The deep and rich colour is everywhere and works best with greys, black, dark blues and in head-to-toe.

LADY LIKE: Matching top and cardigan sets and pencil skirts sound dated but they go hand-in-hand with lady-like. 

Mix with satin cami dresses and waisted blazers for an ultra feminine look.

LEOPARD PRINT: This season 75% of the catwalk was leopard print, according to Tagwalk – a huge majority.

It crawled its way in last season but its rife for autumn and all over the high street, be it shoes or floor sweeping coats, it’s a must have trend. 

“Don’t worry about all the noise around fashion,” Georgia said. 

“Sometimes it can feel like a very small, enclosed and niche market that you’re not part of. 

“But actually, fashion is for everybody, so have fun with it.”

Zoe quipped: “I just think, don’t get overwhelmed by what you ‘should’ wear. 

“It’s actually really annoying me now that we’ve got into this thing.”

Their recommendation comes after New Look shoppers were racing to buy a “super-comfy” autumn essential with a 25% discount.

New Look  slashed the price of the timeless Black Hooded Puffer Coat from £38.99 down to £29.24 in its winter coat sale.
