Our guide to the best skiwear

Here are the ski clothes and accessories you need to be super-toasty on the slopes and super-chic in the bar or beside the fire pit.

In 2024, most designer-fashion brands have left serious ski-wear to the specialists — apart, that is, from Stella McCartney, whose collection for Adidas includes serious skiwear. Instead, designer brands offer padded jackets and apres-ski casuals that can be worn away from the slopes, or ski accessories such as Chanel’s faux-fur ear-muffs, £830, or a Louis Vuitton Snow Mask, £965.

The main purveyors of serious ski clothing are the specialist brands, which include Moncler, Saloman, Goldbergh, Fusalp, Perfect Moment and My Sunday Ski. Their often achingly on-trend (and often punishingly pricey) ski-wear is available from their own web-shops or from fashion sites such as Net-a-Porter, Matches and MyTheresa.
