It’s fair to say contrast sleeves are having a bit of a moment on the trend front. What began as an audacious move by Burberry Prorsum’s Christopher Bailey on the common or garden trench coat a few seasons ago, has had the usual trickle down affect, meaning that us mere mortals might now also get a chance to dip into the trend.
