Fresh pow, incoming! |
| Welcome to The Group Chat, where sports and culture meet and mingle. Preparing for that annual holiday ski trip? Let The Group Chat help you pack. Skiing and snowboarding looks are all about combining fashion and function — there are a million ways to stay warm while slaying the mountain. Here are the trends our team is seeing on the slopes. |
❄️ Shredding and slaying ❄️ |
 Source: The GIST. TREND #1: Onesies One-piece snowsuits are, ahem, peak mountain fashion. They create a put-together, cohesive effect, while allowing for boldness, creativity, and playfulness. They have a fun vintage vibe and, more importantly, you'll never end up with snow up your back after a wipe-out.  Source: Hypebae. TREND #2: Fashion-forward collabs and brands From Supreme to SKIMS, legacy mountainwear brands have been teaming up with labels to create truly stunning collections that lean more fashion than function. If you're feeling extra spendy, luxury lines like Cordova and Moncler will help you turn the slopes into a literal runway, but knitwear labels like We Norwegians offer a high-fashion feel that's a bit more accessible. |
| Presented by Amazon Prime  Source: Amazon Prime Be honest: You're probably not done holiday shopping yet — and that's okay. Busy gals on the go can't hit every store, after all. That's why Amazon Prime is the ultimate holiday hack. You can find everything you still left on your list on Prime, like: 🥩 A meat thermometer (yes, you need one), 🎁 That in-the-know gift for your Gen Z cousin (we suggest wired headphones), 🫧 And a luxurious bath bomb (this one's for you). Whether it's decor or gifts, you can finally finish your to-do list by shopping on Prime. Experience fast, free shipping, plus exclusive member savings, and breathe a sigh of relief. |
Your Après-Ski Essentials | ||
 | 1. | Après-ski is the perfect post-slope pick-me-up — but packed rooms can heat up fast. Layer tees and long sleeves under your cute sweaters so you can adjust as the night goes on. |
 | 2. | |
 | 3. | Ski and snowboard boots are notoriously clunky. Pack a comfy, waterproof pair of winter boots so you can stay warm and be ready to dance if the right song comes on. |
 | 4. | Cold weather + warm bev = après-ski magic. Keep a thermos handy for everything from hot cocoa to hot toddies. |

If you're going monochromatic, it's especially important that you pick the right color, so look for one that brings you joy, complements your skin tone, and doesn't blend in with the snow (safety first).

TREND #4: A new, women-forward brand disrupting the space The same handful of companies have dominated ski and snowboarding gear for decades, but newer, trendier brands are carving out a space as of late. Example A? Halfdays, co-founded by former Olympic skier Kiley McKinnon, who was sick of competing in men's gear and created a stunning line made for women, by women. (Sounds familiar, eh?) |

TREND #5: Lady Di–inspired red Vintage ski and snowboard 'fits often take inspiration from the '70s, but right now, it's the queen of the '80s and '90s dominating cool-girl gear. Princess Diana had plenty of notable slope styles, but the bright red puffer jacket is particularly iconic. No wonder everyone from J.Crew to Moncler has a dupe. |
