The allure of après-ski living—where effortless elegance meets alpine adventure—takes on new heights with Loro Piana’s Fall-Winter 2024-2025 Après Ski collection. Designed to blend the serenity of mountain escapes with the refined craftsmanship the brand is known for, this collection offers a complete immersion in comfort, innovation, and heritage.
At the heart of the Après Ski proposals is an overarching sense of lightness—silhouettes that flow effortlessly around the body, creating a sensation of weightlessness and freedom. These pieces move with you, offering unparalleled comfort, whether you’re relaxing on a sun-drenched terrace or strolling through chic alpine villages. Meticulously chosen fabrics such as Cashmere Jacquard, Shearling, and Cashfur are tailored with exceptional craftsmanship for an opulent and noteworthy assortment. For example, the luxurious texture of Cashfur (a luxurious blend of cashmere and silk, offering a soft, tactile experience with an added sheen and warmth) offers a tactile softness that invites the touch, while the technical brilliance of Storm System® (Loro Piana's patented weather-resistant fabric technology) ensures the ultimate in protection against the elements.
The iconic Cashmere Jacquard is reimagined in designs that evoke traditional Norwegian motifs, merging heritage with a contemporary, alpine aesthetic. The color palette—natural whites, beiges, and the occasional pops of azure, lilac, and red—captures the essence of winter’s pristine landscape, evoking both the softness of snow and the warmth of a fireside glow.
The Icer Mini Jacket, perfect for both après-ski warmth and sophisticated alpine relaxation, is a fusion of innovation and style. The Mini Jacket is an expression of both luxury and innovation, crafted from the brand’s proprietary Pecora Nera® (a rare, high-quality wool from a special breed of sheep) and Storm System® cashmere. The result is a piece that is as functional as it is fashionable, offering unmatched warmth without compromising on style. Paired with a marvelously tailored shearling caban, these are the garments that define the mountain escape as an opportunity for chic relaxation.
The relaxed fit continues in the collection’s cashmere and alpaca knitwear, each piece exuding a tactile softness that promises nothing less than an indulgent experience. Ultra-soft alpaca trousers and mohair wool suits embroidered with three-dimensional patterns showcase the Maison’s dedication to both comfort and artistry.
The reimagined bags of the collection—Bale, Loom, and Extra Pocket—are crafted in plush Cashfur, a material that elevates the functionality of everyday accessories into the realm of the sublime. They are statements of subtle luxury that echo the collection’s commitment to innovation and heritage, encapsulating the sense of refined ease that defines the Après Ski lifestyle.
For him, Loro Piana offers a range of impeccably crafted outerwear that speaks to the brand’s core value of combining innovation with timeless design. Down jackets, anoraks, and parkas are expertly fashioned from Shearling and the brand's groundbreaking Three Layer Wool Storm System® (Loro Piana’s advanced, weather-resistant fabric technology featuring three layers of fine wool, designed for maximum protection against the elements while remaining breathable and lightweight), developed specifically for mountain environments.
These pieces embody the brand’s dedication to providing warmth without sacrificing refinement, with generous volumes that embrace the body’s movements and offer a tactile experience that is both comforting and elegant. The jerseys and trousers are equally luxurious, designed to complement the outerwear with their soft, sensorial touch.
Accessories are designed with the same attention to detail, offering both function and sophistication. The bouclé Rebecca ballerinas for her and the Ashridge Walk boots for him—crafted from Storm System® cashmere and suede—are versatile, seamlessly taking you from snowy trails to stylish evening soirées.
The collaboration with ROA introduces an intriguing fusion of rugged functionality and refined aesthetics. The gender-neutral Andreas boots are crafted from Loro Piana’s signature Shearling, designed to withstand the elements while offering the understated elegance that has become synonymous with the Maison's identity. The Bristol upper and subtle detailing elevate the boots into the realm of luxury, redefining the notion of outdoor performance footwear. This partnership with ROA marks an exciting fusion of Loro Piana’s expertise in luxury materials with ROA’s rugged outdoor design ethos. Together, they are a perfect embodiment of the Maison’s commitment to performance-driven elegance, offering a stylish solution for the modern explorer.
