A pejorative term for the boring, preppy mainstream
girls who come to
hardcore shows and basically just hold their boyfriend's jackets while they're in the
pit.
Coat racks, unlike your garden variety poseur, have no pretense of being part of the scene or the subculture. They're just there because their boyfriends drag them along to the show.
"Yeahhh, she has long
straight blonde hair, all made up and dressed
cute in Aberfimbie and Crotch. And she's with a dude with short hair and a long sleeved black Bane
shirt..... total coatrack."
