A ski trip is as much about careening down a mountainside as it is the perfect opportunity to embrace winter dressing in all its forms. After all, layering is an art that invites both practicality and ingenuity. From heritage-rich Fair Isle sweaters to one of the latest hat trends or building your outfit around a faux fur coat find, ski wear offers the chance to play with a seamless pairing of high-performance gear with loud luxury fashion. Plus, ski style remains delightfully frozen in time, still harkening back to the same inspiration from Princess Diana in St. Moritz, Jackie Kennedy in Aspen, and Audrey Hepburn enjoying a ski break on the piste (with wine and fondue obviously). Of course, your winter jacket and thermal base layers are non-negotiable—we're not suggesting you forgo the necessary armor. But consider your next alpine excursion an invitation to experiment, especially off the slopes: Pair your snowproof pants with a furry Ugg, or offset that perfectly engineered parka with your new Bottega bag. The interplay of old and new, a bit practical and indulgent, makes slope-side style so much fun to recreate.
