- A layered oversized parka from Balenciaga is now available for pre-order online, and fans have compared it to NBC's "Friends."
- Specifically, people think the coat is similar to an outfit that Joey wore on season three.
- People took to Twitter to point out the resemblance and share their reaction.
To gear up for the fall and winter season, Balenciaga is selling a coat that costs $9,000 — and people are convinced that it was inspired by "Friends."
The brand's layered oversized parka was unveiled during Paris Fashion Week in early March, but has recently gained more attention since it's now available to pre-order.
The apparel has been compared to the coat worn by Joey Tribbiani during season three of the hit sitcom.
On the episode titled "The One Where No One's Ready," Ross spent a majority of the time stressed and trying to motivate his friends to get dressed for an event. During a squabble between Joey and Chandler, the latter decided to steal all of Joey's underwear. In retaliation, Joey later walked into the apartment wearing a bunch of Chandler's clothing.
After noticing the uncanny resemblance, people took to Twitter to share their hilarious reactions.

I can’t be the only one who thought of Joey putting on all of Chandler’s clothes, in that episode of Friends, when they saw Balenciaga’s fall/winter ‘18.

According to the description on Barney's website, the navy parka "features multicolored layers in assorted fabrics." Pieces in the fall/winter collection include the "exaggerated layering effect," which "showcases designer Demna Gvasalia's experimental approach."
