From my experience - depends on age and crowd. Most younger girls in my old neighborhood wore regular weekday jackets/coats on shabbos; and only maybe one little neighbor wore a proper wool shabbos coat.

I was asking if they could wear their regular weekday warm/down puffers or if most of the girls are wearing special shabbos/ woolen coats. The question is not if they should be wearing a winter coat, rather if the girls have special shabbos coats.

My girls started wearing Shabbos coats at around 7th grade or so. It started when Gap put out a wool peacoat in their girls deparment, and I got it for a really great price. (and next daughter then got it as a hand-me-down....)

It would be a waste of money to buy my 9 year old a Shabbos coat. She would hardly ever wear it. She'd much rather wear her cozy warmest jacket than a stiff piece of wool.....

My daughtet is in upper elementary school. Neither she nor any of her friends wear shabbos coats. They do prefer regular coats black, navy, grey with fake fur trimmed hoods so Iit gives off a nice look while still wearing a weekday coat.
I dont see many girls reaching 6th grade wearing bright or colored puffer coats. They consider it "babyish" and prefer to stick with conservative colors.
Otoh, I hear high school girls "need" a shabbos coat but hardly ever wear it. School shabbos, shabbaton, events. I see many girls choose to wear their regular coat to bnos or to go to friends. But maybe thats just where I live.
