White puffer jacket for petite size 6 16 year old going to college

Dd is wanting a white, preferable sort of pearly white, puffer jacket with a fur trim hood for college. She’s petite in height and figure and wants it to sit at the top end of her hips.
So far, Google has not proved very helpful.
I’m on a tight budget and no credit card so needs to be under £100. It’s totally impractical colour for the bus to college but it’s what she wants.
Any help gratefully appreciated.

does your dd wear foundation or fake tan? I’m only asking as white will be ruined and look awful after the first wear. I have a white north face puffer and I am forever washing is as the cuffs get so dirty so quickly. I hardly wear it anymore for that reason.

sorry it wasn’t a recommendation just thought was say incase you can change her mind on the colour.

That's only available in a size 6

Thank you. They aren’t quite fitting what she has in mind. She saw someone wearing one but was too shy to ask where it was from.
The white is totally impractical and I remember her pink puffer coat when she was 4 being a nightmare for dirt. It never fully came out either.
I can take her to the Trafford Centre or Manchester to look around.

Make sure it is washable as well.

God i second the caution over make up rubbing off on the collar.

Few years ago i had a white puffer ... i tried so hard not to get foundation on it but alas ...

Plus there's the washing of them. Most go lumpy in the wash. My daughter saw a tip about putting a tennis ball in the wash with it to stop this - she tried it - it didn't work ! 🙄
