In olden times—the ’70s—après ski meant hitting the bar closest to the slopes in full ski regalia. Today, après has grown up. You’re more selective about where you après, and often the after-party gives way to a dinner party. With a few key items, you can go from the slopes to the streets in comfort and style.
