More than a few designers shocked their audience this season with designs that showcased an unexpectedly whimsical perspective. Chief among them was Burberry Prorsum, whose highly unconventional trenches surprised audiences in the best possible way. From a textured saffron trench to a version splashed in contrasting tribal prints and one particularly intriguing cobalt leather and jean coat, the average khaki trench fell out of favor this season. In honor of Burberry's new crop of innovative trenches, here are eleven versions of the iconic design from past seasons which are anything but beige.
