When winter hits, it’s time to pull out the big guns when it comes to outerwear. Enter, Moncler. The performance brand is renown for its coats (and boots) that’ll protect you from the harshest of elements, and celebrities including Gigi Hadid, Kendall Jenner and Dua Lipa are among some of the French label’s most-loyal fans.
Founded in 1952 in a little Alpine village in France (called Monestier-de-Clermont), the label started by creating mountaineering gear such as tents, sleeping bags and a hooded cape. Putting the technical warm-weather skills into practice, the brand later launched its first down-padded coat a couple of years later in 1954. And, well, the rest shall we say, is history. Now Moncler is easily one of the most-recognised brands worldwide when it comes to warm-weather pieces and is often positioned in the top-tier of high-resistance and protective coats and jackets.
If the technical, heat-retaining, thermal elements of the brand’s outerwear isn’t enough to spark your interest, then the designs certainly will. The longline ‘Parnaiba’ iteration is proving to be the brand’s most popular coat in recent months, but more iconic cropped styles such as the ‘Maya’ has been re-released, proving that the puffer will never date.
