Cynthia Erivo is the latest star to embrace heritage style; her checked coat is an easy way of adding this trend to your wardrobe

Cynthia Erivo wearing heritage check trench coat in New York City on 27 November, 2025.

Embracing the heritage trend, Cynthia Erivo stepped out in New York City last month wearing Saint Laurent’s brown checked raglan coat, a discontinued style from their 2014 autumn/winter collection. Despite her trench coat being over a decade old, the look couldn't have felt more timely, with the star embracing two of this season's biggest winter looks.

Heritage patterns of plaid and check are massive right now, and they've already been spotted on a host of celebrities, with everyone from Olivia Colman and Demi Moore to Rosie Huntington-Whiteley stepping out in the style. Add to this the chocolate brown colourway of Cynthia's outerwear and we can't quite believe this is an archive design.
