When it comes to cold-weather style staples, celebrities know what’s hot.

After all, stars regularly top off their outfits with top-of-the-line outerwear — whether facing the elements in a practical puffer or facing the paparazzi in a classic wrap coat.

And with fall on the way, now’s the time to find a new favorite topper to brave the chilly days ahead.

Below, we’ve broken down 13 of the most celeb-loved outerwear labels — from an Oprah-approved Amazon find to trendy-yet-timeless Max Mara designs.

Simply put, famous people love Free People. The brand’s Dolman Quilted Jacket ($198) is a particular favorite for Olivia Wilde, Emma Roberts and Taylor Swift — the latter of whom also wore a Free People coat in her “Lavender Haze” music video.

Selena Gomez favors the label’s more winter-ready jackets, while Kaia Gerber regularly hits the street in her Hit the Slopes Fleece ($148).
