Product Insights

From ET AL, the 1987-founded Melbourne label that makes most of its garments in Australia, the Threadline Trench Tl is a one-size, limited-edition duster (only five made) that reworks the trench as sculptural avant-garde design: an asymmetric collar and hem, side splits, and a self-tie belt—the only closure—let it shift from a cinched A-line to a loose drape, giving two outerwear roles for its AUD 749 price. The 100% cotton shell with Tencel-viscose contrast facings falls as a soft moving column, tracing 1980s Japanese tailoring and drawing Comme des Garçons comparisons, but the untreated, dry-clean-only cotton absorbs rain and offers no weather protection, so the tradeoff is a collectible, belt-styled statement piece rather than a functional rain trench.

Verified claims

Silhouette
Asymmetric collar and hem over an oversized one-size cut give the front an off-center, in-motion silhouette.
Materials
100% cotton shell with 62/38 Tencel-viscose contrast facings — an untreated, dry-clean-only duster, not a weatherproof trench.
Side splits
Side splits stop the coat binding at the knees and flash the copper hem with each step.
Belt styling
The self-tie belt switches the silhouette: cinched at the natural waist it shapes the volume; left loose, the duster drapes open.
Limited run
Only five made, in one size — a collectible with no size run to exchange into.
Fit
Designed volume and dropped shoulders fit varied bodies; the waist belt is the only adjustment, cinched into an A-line.
Drape
The structured cotton shell reads as a soft moving column rather than rigid outerwear.
Price context
At AUD 749 the purchase is one of five, not a restockable catalogue duster.
Weather
Untreated cotton shell absorbs rain and is dry-clean-only, so it is not for wet weather.
Design language
Traces to 1980s Japanese avant-garde tailoring; customers benchmark it to Comme des Garçons.
Rarity
Only five made — below ET AL's usual run of 8–24 pieces per style.
Value
AUD 749 buys two outerwear roles via the belt — mid-range in ET AL's own Threadline line.
Cultural placement
A long-time customer calls ET AL Australia's answer to Comme des Garçons — structural, deconstructed, not basic rainwear.
Provenance
Melbourne label founded in 1987 and still family-run, with 70% of garments made in Australia.
Closure
Only closure is the waist belt — no buttons, snaps, or hook-and-eye.
Asymmetric cut
Asymmetric collar and hem break the long line with diagonal cuts — structural, not printed.
Care
Dry-clean only keeps the 100% cotton shell structured; it won't soften into a broken-in ease.
Price positioning
At $749 AUD it sits below $899 heritage-style dusters but above $275 accessible ones.
Lineage
ET AL is a 1987-founded Melbourne house; 70% of its garments are made in Australia.
Construction
Asymmetric collar and hem create an off-center fall; side splits open through the stride.
Australian production
70% of ET AL's garments are made in Australia.
Collaboration
ET AL designed the Vue De Monde staff wardrobe in 2017.
