SINCE NO FACET of life is off-piste for social media these days, it should come as no surprise that ski wear is being driven to fashionable new peaks by humanity’s unquenchable thirst to look cute in vacation pics and post them. As it did for beach clothing, triggering the bikini and beach-vacation-wear boom of the last few years, Instagram has influenced slope style, resulting in an uptick in ski garb that’s chic enough to wear back in the city after Winter Break. If you decide to invest in a fashion-forward, navy-blue fringed Moncler Genius parka for over $2,000, you’ll want it to work in Manhattan as well as Montana.
