A week or even a weekend on the slopes comes with a lot of paraphernalia - from boots and salopettes to skis (if you’re a seasoned pro) and cozy women’s jackets to the point that little space is left in your suitcase for your après-ski gear. Finding styles that address your needs both on and off the slopes is key. Lightweight but insulating base layers that lock in heat and can be worn solo when you’re delayering at the end of the day, knits in bright colors that make a statement with little to no additions, and a plethora of cozy accessories. Read on for our effortless après-ski solutions.
1 | LIGHTWEIGHT AND INSULATING BASE LAYERS
Easy to slip on under toasty knitwear and salopettes, base layers crafted from luxuriously soft yarns lock in heat whether you’re facing a black run or the decision of what to order for an après-ski dinner.
Lightweight and clean cut, our Cashmere Barely There Layering Sweater is crafted from featherweight cashmere with a hint of comfortable stretch and is topped with a flattering high roll neck, while our Supersoft Jersey Long Sleeve Top adopts a round-neck silhouette instead accompanied by lightweight jersey for bulk-free layering. For a more textured finish, turn to our Cotton Waffle Jersey Long Sleeve Top. Integral players in all chic women’s ski outfits, they continue to hold their own when you’re swapping ski poles for a knife and fork.
2 | MIX + MATCH TRAVEL TAILORING
Whether you’re escaping the city for a snowy escape or staying put, travel will inevitably form part of your day - or week - and keeping comfortable as you get from A to B and settle in at your final destination is key. This is when our Travel Tailoring comes into its own.
With a polished finish and jersey-level comfort, it defines a plethora of pant styles as well as an edit of coordinating tops for you to build a head-to-toe look that looks put-together but also suits a day on the sofa.
Pair our Travel Tailoring Balloon Sleeve Swing Top with its matching kick-flare pant or reach for your cosiest knit instead, loosely tucked into the waistband or left to fall flatteringly over your hips. Switch things up with our Travel Tailoring Adjustable Slim Flare Pant, Travel Tailoring Turn-Up Straight Leg Pant or Travel Tailoring Kick Flare Pant, each topped with an elasticated waistband and in either black or navy to hold their own with grounding neutrals just as effortlessly as bright pops of colour.
3 | HEAD-TO-TOE SOLUTIONS
The off-duty counterpart to your slope-ready salopettes, color-matched co-ords in luxuriously soft knits are your one-step answer to après-ski clothing. They instantly transition from chunky ski boots and thermals into more relaxed evenings accompanied by irresistible softness and covetable comfort.
Embracing luxuriously tactile yarns, our Knitted Vest + Skirt Co-Ord combines a sleeveless sweater vest topped with a detachable snood and a maxi skirt to translate the comfort synonymous with loungewear to an AM-PM investment. Endlessly versatile, it can be styled over long-sleeved base layers if you want to introduce a little extra warmth and play with different finishes or a cotton shirt for an office-ready finish. Turn to durable snow-ready boots when you’re heading out in search of a restoring cheese fondue or slip into our cozy Cashmere Socks when you’re staying inside.
4 | LUXURIOUSLY SOFT STATEMENT KNITS
Plunging temperatures, snow-covered peaks, and chilly winds are no match for our curation of cozy après-ski knitwear. A staple throughout fall and winter, knitted sweaters really come into their own on freshly powdered slopes.
Our Alpaca Wool Perfect Country Sweater + Snood is the perfect town-to-country investment. It’s crafted from superfine Italian Alpaca and Merino wool that locks in heat. With a detachable snood that transforms the silhouette from a high-neck to a round-neck one, it combines practical details with a luxuriously soft fabric.
Joining our curation of après-ski sweaters, our Merino Cashmere Relaxed Crop Sweater + Snood is structured and warm while our Chunky Cashmere-Blend High Neck Sweater envelopes you in luxuriously soft pure cashmere. While they keep you cozy during the day, they also complement evenings beside roaring fires.
For something that borrows cues from sports-luxe outfitting, turn to our Cashmere Sleeveless Relaxed Zip Hoody or Cashmere Relaxed Fit Box Zip Hoody, both crafted from the luxuriously soft yarn to complement bulk-free layering while also locking in heat. Our half-zip sweaters are also a luxe update on athleisure staples ready for both tackling black slopes and bustling pavements. In a slimmer fit, our Merino Stretch Half Zip Sweater is easy to tuck into waistbands while our Merino Cashmere Crop Half Zip Sweater in a relaxed oversized fit is the perfect partner to untucked styling to achieve an effortlessly casual finish.
5 | SHEARLING COAT
We’re not taking any chances where your comfort and cosiness is concerned.
Our Reversible Shearling Coat locks in warmth regardless of which side you choose to display and is framed by neat lapels that sit atop the button-down front. While maybe not ready for a day on your skis, it’s ready to pull on when you’re winding down at the end of the day and braving the cold once more.
