Hitting the slopes
STYLE21 November 2024
The ski season has (finally) arrived, and with it, a variety of chalet-bound staples and sumptuous skiwear to have you prepped for a stylish schuss. Here’s how to perfect your look on and off the slopes.
On piste

The essence of good skiwear is waterproofing and warmth – and the very best offers it with style. If your idea of a good day on the mountain starts with the first lift and a mogul run before espresso, then perhaps opt for a light technical shell that’s made for movement. For the fair-weather skier, an elevated puffer jacket or belted all-in-one with a streamlined silhouette may be the cosiest – and most chic – choice. Don’t forget to invest in thermal layers, too, woven with breathable fibres such as Merino wool.

STYLE TIP

Lending breathability without bulk, make a fleece snood the finishing flourish for every alpine adventure, whether skiing or simply bracing a chilly day in the Village.

Slope accessories

As every seasoned skier knows, eyewear is your unwavering ally. Whether sunny skies or snow squalls, find wraparound sunglasses and goggles for every fluctuation, with features such as anti-fog and glare-resistant polarised lenses created for maximum UV protection. For your next accessory, wrap up in resilient, windproof gloves in ripstop nylon, GORE-TEX and leather – or opt for a pair of mitts if you’re looking for additional warmth when the temperature really drops.

Après chic

Some of the loveliest sweaters on the Autumn/Winter 2024 catwalks are designed for the slopes and the city, knitted together with beloved Fair Isle patterns and bright, multicoloured yarns. This do-it-all piece is a packing staple; particularly once you’ve added your skiwear and accessories to the suitcase and space isn’t on your side. Choose styles in insulating cashmere and wool to stay comfortable whether you’re enjoying a leisurely fondue lunch or heading down the slope to the village’s best après-ski spot.

STYLE TIP

Elevated extras

While a pair of hiking boots might work for lower resorts late in the season, most mountain destinations require something sturdier and truly snowproof. Key details to look out for include shearling linings, seam-sealed constructions, vulcanized rubber toe caps and gripped soles to tackle icy paths. Then, consider a beautiful pair of gloves – a well-made style in soft leather will only get better with wear – and finish with woolly socks, balaclavas and scarves to stay toasty, no matter the temperature.
