The beauty of a good quilted coat is that it has that padded, soft feel to it. Added to that, it adds stylistic flair to your outfits, a little dot on top of the i, if you will. The simplicity of an all-black outfit with a colorful quilted piece atop it can't be beat - in our books. There's something to be said for woollen outerwear, in all its gentlemanly glory. But for street rats, this is the place to be.

Make like Aladdin (if he lived in the Arctic) and get your padded down on. There are countless varieties of quilting to take your fancy - we like the idea of layering some of these up with your other tops, sweaters and coats. For instance, a lightweight quilted jacket can easily pair with a black V-neck sweater (but please, no plunge). Hairy décolletage is not a vibe.

Ideally, you can add a few separates in different tones to make up one fit - then throw one of these on top. The colorways are immaculate. Just in time too, 'tis is the season for extravagance but make it subtle.

Quilted coats for quick style points. Whether shell, down or gilet in nature, these are bound to make waves at your next social appearance.

The hood on this looks as though it would envelop your face, much like Cartman of South Park fame. Lucky for you, it's black so it would still be passable at a Berlin bar.
