’Tis the season for holiday travel, and there is no shortage of celebrity airport outfits crossing our radar. Whether they suit up like Cate Blanchett or keep it more casual in leggings like Bella Hadid, every star has an airport outfit formula that fits their travel needs. One ingredient for travel-day attire is guaranteed to land anyone on the best dressed passenger list: a timeless trench coat.

Plus, it goes with literally everything, from jeans and leggings to skirts and suits.
