The 12 Best Trench Coats For Petites

While most trench coats are designed for milder seasons, this mid-length coat from Sebby also holds up in colder weather. It's made with 100% polyester fabric that’s water- and wind-resistant, according to the brand. Gunmetal buttons secure the double-breasted front flaps, and a wide sash belt creates a tapered look at the waist. The coat also includes a detachable hood for extra warmth and protection from the rain, while side stretch panels on the sleeves allow for freedom of movement. Multiple Amazon reviewers noted that it's great for layering over hoodies and thick sweaters, and another added that it stopped just above the knee on her 5-foot-1-inch mother, making it perfect for petites.

One reviewer raved: “What i love most about this is that I don't feel like I'm swimming under the jacket lol. Being a very petite asian it has always been my problem to look for the right fit but this meet beyond my expectation.”
