Sponsor News: Sunday Riley Modern Skincare partnered with AFW

Posted on 21 February 2012

We at Aspen Fashion Week are proud (and incredibly excited) to have Sunday Riley Modern Skincare as the official makeup + skincare sponsor for 2012. Sunday Riley is one of the hottest new skincare lines available. Carried at Barney’s New York, this revolutionary line of anti-aging products focuses on the union between botanicals and biotechnology. Sunday explains that she has been obsessed with anti-aging skincare since she was 12 and her Native American heritage taught her to appreciate the Earth and the healing, regeneration, detoxification, and glowing agelessness that its botanicals can bring. Her philosophy to true agelessness follows this simple formula:

Detoxification + Varied Arsenal of Anti-Aging Actives = Glowing Skin

More Powder Days Forecasted: LET IT SNOW!

Posted on 20 February 2012

To a ski lover, there are no better words than “powder day.” Here in Aspen, we live for new snow. It is no secret winter had a slow start in Colorado, but things are really turning around. In the last 24 hours, Snowmass has received 6.5” and the current conditions are powder/packed powder. It looks like Mother Nature is finally shining favorably upon us, because snow is predicted for 7 out of the next 10 days.
This wide range of weather conditions has allowed us to utilize all of our fabulous ski gear, from extra base layers to spring-weight jackets to powder skis. We are all looking forward to hitting the slopes March 11-14, during Aspen Fashion Week, so keep doing your snow dances and LET IT SNOW.

Designers: Forecasted Trends for Winter 12/13

Posted on 7 February 2012

The team at AFW was fortunate enough to get a preview of next year’s mountain fashions at the SIA Snow Show and we have compiled a list that highlights all of our favorite trends for next ski season. Use these tips to stay ahead of the pack.

1. Bright Colors are extremely important for winter 12/13. Everywhere we looked there was one bold hue paired against another. We saw watermelon pink with lime green, eggplant purple with sherbet orange, and lots of brights paired with whites. Hope you have your goggles ready.
