Chic Ski

Audrey Hepburn Givenchy 1963

What lover of fashion does not have the opening scene of Charade indelibly etched in their brain? Audrey Hepburn’s mink pullover and Givenchy designed après ski look marks the high point of alpine fashion. Vintage skiwear was sleek and stylish as compared to today’s more utilitarian styles, though I wonder how they didn’t freeze. With more cold weather on it’s way and possibly some snow let’s get in the mood by looking back at the evolution of style on the slopes.

Hope your weekend is warm and cozy!
