scarpe giuseppe zanotti Read together—Gstaad, Sun Valley, Taos, Vail, Portillo, Banff, Sugarloaf, Chamonix, Aspen, Jackson Hole, Stowe, Cortina, Davos, Klosters, Zermatt—the names of famous ski resorts sound like a chant, an invocation of the good life. A world of speed and leisure, of wind-reddened cheeks, crush-worthy ski instructors, walkie-talkies, hot cocoa, “the cleanest brut-champagne air,” as Vogue put it in 1963, and “the romance of wild, untrammeled landscape, pocket-size villages . . . huge fires at night.” And then there are the clothes: winter kit designed to appeal to skiers and lodge-lovers alike, a mix of activewear and chunky knits that deliver warmth, enhance performance, and have the ability to transition stylishly and seamlessly from the piste to the chalet. Though ski gear becomes more technologically advanced every year, the après-ski look, updated with subtle and smart twists, is as classic and enduring as the mountains’ snow birds who return over and over again. Ski style is epitomized here with images of Charlotte Rampling, Lindsay Vonn, Veruschka, James Bond, Kristen McMenamy, and more—from the Vogue archive, and beyond.
