Chic, Sub-Zero

The mountains have always had their own fashion codes. Long before après-ski became a fashion category, resorts were already a stage for a certain idea of glamour: oversized sunglasses, furs, shearling, knitwear, fitted silhouettes, and boots designed for both the snow and what happens after.

From the glamour of the mid-20th century Alps to the new generation of ski chic, dressing for the mountains has never just been about keeping warm. It’s a huge part of the experience… Perhaps that’s why après-ski remains one of the few moments where a dose of excess is not only permitted, but almost necessary.

At SKIAAR, we’ve curated five pieces to take that spirit a little further.

01 — THE SHEARLING

Nour Hammour — Après Ash

More is more.

A shearling like this isn't meant to go unnoticed. The volume, texture, and oversized silhouette do all the work. Not much else is needed.

02 — THE BORDEAUX

Nour Hammour — Mirja Bordeaux

Sophisticated and dramatic, it works especially well in the mountains, where textures take on another dimension. A piece for when après-ski starts to feel more like a night out than the end of a day on skis.

03 — THE LAYER

Khaite — Millen Colorblocked Cotton Top

The turtleneck is one of the great classics of the alpine wardrobe. Here, Khaite takes it to a more graphic realm with a black and white color-block design.

Fitted, clean, and easy to pair, it's the kind of layer that makes the look work even when you take off your coat.

04 — THE STIRRUP

Reformation — Gianna Knit Legging

The  stirrup  once again proves that some of the best style tricks come from other worlds.

With its fitted silhouette and under-foot strap, the Gianna Knit Legging has a touch of equestrian uniform and classic après-ski. Wear it with a voluminous boot and let the contrast do the rest.

05 — THE MOON BOOT

Moon Boot — Ltrack Low Faux-Fur

A blend of snow boot and futuristic object.

The Ltrack Low combines suede, faux fur, and a snow-ready sole with that spatial aesthetic that has made Moon Boot one of the great icons of alpine wear.

Because if there's one place where a boot that looks like it just landed from another planet makes perfect sense, it's here.
