Sophie Turner Joins the Trench Coat Trend With a Khaite Trench
Sophie Turner was photographed in New York City following a CBS interview, stepping into the winter cold in a sharply cut black coat from Khaite. The outerwear piece, identified as the brand’s Donna Coat, stood out for its long, uninterrupted line, double-breasted fastening, and epaulettes that reference classic military tailoring. Reaching close to the ankle, the coat immediately set the tone for the appearance, defining the rest of her outfit.

She paired the coat with pointed black pumps and carried an oxblood leather clutch, also by Khaite, introducing contrast and still retaining the attention on the coat itself. The colour combination stayed within a controlled palette, allowing texture and proportion to do the work.
While often discussed alongside the trench coat trend currently visible across celebrity street style, the Donna Coat occupies a slightly different space. Its structure and weight place it closer to tailored outerwear than traditional trench silhouettes, offering a sharper interpretation of longline coats suited to colder months.

The New York setting played its part. Seen between professional commitments rather than staged appearances, Turner’s choice of coat felt appropriate for the pace and practicality of the city, balancing functionality with a clear point of view. Khaite’s emphasis on clean construction and durable materials came through in the coat’s presence, showing the label’s reputation for pieces designed to last beyond a single season.
Worn during a routine press stop, the coat showed how a single, well-made garment can carry an entire outfit without excess an approach that continues to shape contemporary celebrity dressing.
