Sweaters: Cozy Meets Chic
The heart of any après-ski outfit is a cozy sweater. Chunky knits, turtlenecks, and Fair Isle patterns are classics for a reason.
The 4 shown above are all from Amazon, they look so expensive but are a total steal. Perfect for your next ski trip or even just casual winter looks.
Coats: The Statement of Après-Ski Fashion
Your coat sets the tone for your après-ski look. A statement piece like a belted puffer or a tailored wool coat ensures warmth while adding sophistication. Opt for water-resistant fabrics for practicality, and don’t shy away from bold textures like faux fur or quilted designs for an elevated touch.
Bottoms: Sleek and Functional Layers
When it comes to après-ski bottoms, comfort and versatility are key. Opt for fleece-lined leggings, tailored trousers, or slim-fit ski pants that transition seamlessly from the slopes to the lodge. Look for materials like stretchy thermal knits or water-resistant fabrics that offer both warmth and style. Neutral tones or classic patterns like houndstooth or plaid can elevate your look while remaining easy to pair with bold sweaters and coats.
Accessories: The Finishing Touches
No après-ski outfit is complete without the right accessories. Think faux-fur lined hats, oversized scarves, leather gloves, and statement sunglasses to protect against the winter glare. Functional boots with a touch of flair—like shearling or metallic accents—will tie the look together while keeping you steady on icy terrain.
Après-ski style celebrates the best of winter fashion—comfortable, functional, and effortlessly glamorous. By combining key pieces like a standout coat, a luxe sweater, and thoughtfully chosen accessories, you’ll feel as good as you look.
