While a chilly winter in the UK is no fun for anyone, there's a silver lining to the icy weather - the colder months mean a chance to hit the slopes, and look fabulous while you're at it. Whether you're a seasoned skier, off to the bunny slopes or just focused on the fondue (or the mulled wine), we've got your ski style covered.
First up, for some sartorial inspiration, you need to look no further than some of our favourite style icons of the past.
