Trend Snapshot: Après-Ski Core

Trend Snapshot: Après-Ski Core

From home decor to skincare, skiing season has taken over as a major winter trend. The term “après-ski” is French for “after skiing” and refers to the social activities that take place, you guessed it....after skiing. Cozy, oversized sweaters, faire-isle patterns, cocoa, and cocktails are all key elements to this trend. They are represented not only in functional gear for your alpine getaway, but also in apparel and home goods inspired by skiing for everyday use. This makes the “après-ski” aesthetic achievable whether you plan to go on a mountain adventure, or curl up on your couch with a fire and a good book. With resort season upon us, our team here at GOEX was inspired to create a curated “après-ski” collection of products from our favorite fair trade partners.
