The black leather trench still evokes The Matrix


The Frame trench is the only long black leather coat by a big label that I have really seen advertised this fall/winter season.  Incidentally it is SOLD OUT at this store http://www.fwrd.com/product-denim-leather-trench-coat/FRAM-WO14/?d=Womens&itrownum=30&itcurrpage=2&itview=01&utm_medium=affiliate&utm_source=cj&source=cj&utm_campaign=glob_p_1909792# so it must have enjoyed some popularity among fashionable women who could afford to spend over $1600 on a coat.  This is a good sign for leather fashion.

However, even after a decade, fashion critics still equate the long leather coat with The Matrix.  Kendall Jenner earns the jab in her Frame trench here http://www.capitalfm.com/features/week-photos/27-february-2017/kendall-jenner/ and again http://blog.colourfulrebel.com/en/thanks-to-kendall-jenner-and-bella-hadid-the-matrix-look-is-making-a-comeback/  I understand that the critcs are referring to the sunglasses as well, but it is undeniably the black leather coat that makes the look so perilous for women still.
