One of our favourite parts of skiing? Après ski.
Sure, the slopes are fun, but it’s only half the story of a skiing trip. The real magic happens during the downtime - with steaming mugs of hot chocolate in the chalet, evening cocktails, and (most importantly) the outfits.
There’s something about how acceptable (or dare we say, expected) it is to pair luxuriously cosy knitwear with plush fur accessories. Offering the ideal blend of comfort and sophistication, nothing quite captures this feeling like alpaca wool. Its natural comfort, warmth, and incredible softness makes it perfect, both on (and off!) the slopes.
Why alpaca fleece for skiing?
If you’re planning your next ski trip, the secret to staying both warm and stylish on the slopes lies in your choice of natural fibres.
Pairing alpaca clothing and accessories with your performance gear offers the best of both worlds. Alpaca adapts to your body temperature, its hollow-core fibres trapping warmth when you need it, yet remains breathable during intense activity. So, you stay warm, without being overwhelmed by the bulkiness of your layers.
Here are our must-have alpaca items for your 2025 ski season…
Ideal slope-side accessories
The first item in your suitcase should be our Luxury Alpaca Fur Headband. Available in six colours, it doubles as a neck warmer when temperatures drop!
Made from 100% baby alpaca fur, it’s the perfect pairing for under your helmet or jacket - soft and warm, without unnecessary padding!
Pair your headband with our Reversible Wool Beanie for those helmet-free moments (without having to worry about helmet hair). Also handcrafted from 100% baby alpaca wool, its two-tone design (with cable knit on one side, and ribbed knit on the other) offers style both on and off the slopes.
Complete your look with the Luxury Twizzle Fur Scarf. Its ingenuous double-helix design is finished with playful fur pom-poms, giving the twizzle its signature shape. The length options are endless - ideal for lounging in the chalet or to pair with a chic evening outfit.
Base layer essentials
Never underestimate the importance of good socks. Our Everyday Luxury Wool Socks offer a reinforced heel and toe for durability. Also made from 100% alpaca wool, they also regulate temperature and wick moisture - essential for long days on the slopes.
For layering, trust the Cecile Cardigan. It’s a timeless classic meticulously crafted from the finest alpaca fibres. Wear it under your ski jacket or for alone for aprés-ski elegance. You’re guaranteed to stay comfortable, whether you’re skiing or socialising.
Make a statement, après-ski style
The Elysée Wool Shawl is a must-have for elegant evenings. Offering three effortless ways to wear (classic shawl, poncho, or snood), it’s the ideal layer for everything from fireside drinks in the chalet to dinner in town.
For truly special occasions, the Annabelle Fur Trimmed Cape is a real showstopper. We’d always layer Annabelle over fine knits for a cosy and chic après ski look; or to add glamour to an evening dress to create an elegant silhouette.
Off the slope style
Nothing says alpine luxury quite like our Luxury Fur Slippers. Trust us, this is the ultimate pair of cosy indoor slippers. Offering cloud-soft comfort on cosy chalet evenings, they offer 6cm of featherlight deep pile. You’ll definitely be grateful for them in your suitcase after a day on the slopes!
Finally, slip into our Luxury Wool Bed Socks. These chunky knitted socks feature ribbed detailing and reinforced heels and toes. Crafted from 100% baby alpaca wool, they’re a non-negotiable end to your day.
Accessories for life beyond the slopes
What makes these pieces truly special is their versatility.
Our Headband adds glamour to winter weddings, the Cecile Cardigan is the perfect transitional layering piece, and the slippers bring some much-needed comfort and luxury to your daily routine.
Plus, all of our garments and accessories are ethically sourced and sustainably made, supporting skilled Peruvian artisans.
