EDITORS COMMENTS
In this evocative photograph from 1953, three fashionable skiers showcase the latest trends in skiing apparel as they enjoy their winter holiday. On the left, a skiier wears a nylon parka with an attached hood and zip fastening pocket across the front. The parka is paired with nylon and wool skiing trousers, providing both style and functionality in the snowy conditions. At the center, another skiier dons a jacket made of double texture Grenfell cloth, featuring a separate hood and padded shoulders to support the weight of the skis. The jacket is worn with trousers made of Lillyski material, a popular choice for its durability and insulation. On the right, a third skiier stands out in a suede jacket from Aquascutum. The jacket boasts a detachable, zipped-in lining of white nylon fur, adding an elegant touch to the skiing ensemble. A tie belt cinches the waist, accentuating the hourglass figure. These fashionable skiers embody the spirit of the 1950s, a decade marked by innovation and glamour. The combination of practicality and style in their skiing attire reflects the era's focus on both function and fashion. Whether hitting the slopes for the first time or returning for another season, these skiing outfits were sure to turn heads and keep the cold at bay.
