Recently, a slew of collaborations have reimagined the ski season for the fashion-forward crowd. Take, for example, Canada Goose’s recent partnership with Reformation, which included floral-printed and colorblocked puffer jackets, as well as scarves and bright vests. Then, DL1961’s collaboration with ski brand Perfect Moment, bringing together the world of sports and denim in one collection, from a houndstooth denim puffer jacket and dark wash flared pants. “Creating a denim fabric that is sustainable, water resistant, and functional enough to ski in was one-half of the challenge,” DL1961 creative director Sarah Ahmed said via press release. “The other was constructing that denim in a lightweight down-based ski fit that represented the impeccable Perfect Moment aesthetic.” There have also been collaborations between brands like Michael Kors and Ellesse, which featured 80s-inspired puffer jackets, backpacks, and messenger bags, and Gucci Vault’s partnership with Head Sportswear, which featured ski suits, vests, and accessories in bright pink, yellow, and green hues.
