When you get the girlies together for a night out, there's at least at 54 percent change that everyone will pull up wearing the exact same outfit. And during the winter months, that number only increases. Temps hit that sweet spot (40 degrees, give or take) and suddenly, everyone and their mother is living in a plain black puffer coat.
The cold weather staple is virtually inescapable five months out of the year. Whether you identify as a fashion b*tch, a Maxxinista, a Sandy Liang girlie, or a goth, it's a safe bet that there's at least one black puffer hiding in your coat closet. Celebrities, too, favor the timeless style—even with a world of outerwear at their disposal. Kendall Jenner prefers a shimmery statement puffer, while Hailey Bieber and Katie Holmes adore ankle-length quilted styles. Kim Kardashian, meanwhile, is launching a design of her own, via a new Skims collaboration with The North Face.
