When translated from French, it means “after skiing”, so this category includes all the clothes you would normally wear after a day of skiing or snowboarding on the slopes, lounging by the fireplace, drinking wine, relaxing while wearing practical, comfortable and stylish clothing. Sweaters with Scandinavian prints, giant fur hats with ear flaps, colorful capes, and more. When skiing became not only an athlete’s profession but also a fashionable social activity, the “après-ski” style became popular. By the end of the 1920s, many fashion designers of the time began to design lines of clothing specifically for wearing at ski resorts.
