In case you harbored the misconception that après-ski attire was merely comprised of cable-knit sweaters and fur-lined boots, Kendall Jenner and Hailey Bieber are here to redefine the narrative. These best friends have transformed Aspen into their personal runway over the past week, seamlessly blending blizzard-appropriate puffer jackets and ski pants suited for daring double-black diamond runs with opulent black dresses and fur coats that made them the envy of the town square post-ski. Drawing inspiration from the best-dressed celebrity couples, these inseparable friends (alongside their stylists) have interpreted the post-lift dress code in starkly contrasting styles. From their distinctive hats to the winter 2025 shoe trends they donned on their feet, their interpretations of slope chic couldn't be more disparate.
Kendall Jenner, for starters, has been a vocal advocate of The Row in ski towns. During a Harper's Bazaar interview last winter, she declared The Row as the "obvious" choice for such settings. A year later, she doubled down on her sentiment, pairing a sculpted Alaïa blazer coat and a vintage fur hat sourced from A Part of the Rest with The Row's iconic leather Idaho tote. She trudged through the snowy sidewalks in a pair of Ann Demeulemeester riding boots, a nod to her passion for equestrianism and the fashion world's recent fascination with countryside chic. Black Commando tights, oval sunglasses, and leather gloves added a polished finish to her ensemble, embodying every stitch with a rich-girl vibe.
While sharing the same stylist, Michelle, Hailey Bieber took a vastly different approach—one that felt less like a Swiss chalet and more like downtown New York. The Rhode founder stuck to her signature day-to-day style, ditching the vintage fur coat she wore earlier in the trip for a Saint Laurent leather bomber jacket, straight-leg jeans, and a Yankees baseball cap. Her footwear, though aligned with the runway's preppy aesthetic, stood in stark contrast to Jenner's choices. Instead, she opted for a pair of The Row's "Boyfriend" loafers, a sophisticated spin on the boat shoe trend poised to dominate spring 2025.
Kendall Jenner and Hailey Bieber share more than their outfits might initially suggest. Both are successful business moguls and models, and both aren't afraid to pack their favorite designers for a mountain retreat. (Bieber has been a long-time admirer of Saint Laurent's bags, coats, and shoes, while Jenner has a penchant for replicating entire The Row runway looks.) Perhaps these après-ski ensembles and corresponding shoe trends are simply expressing the same sentiment in different fonts: You don't need to conform to others' vacation dressing norms.
