The lady of the twenties and thirties
Before the First World War, female skiers wore skirts.
In the 1920s, women's ski fashion emancipated itself, as illustrated by this hazelnut-brown ski suit, with slacks (named after the slack area of the pants that allowed more freedom of movement) and a belted double-breasted sports jacket.
The trousers were attached to the shoe in such a way that no snow could penetrate.
The eyes are protected by celluloid folding glasses, which were available in this design up until the 1950s.
The head is adorned with a flap cap with ear flaps, the hand-sewn mittens made from the fabric of a kitchen apron hold bamboo sticks with large wooden plates and leather braces.
The sole of the leather lace-up ski boots is reinforced with metal at critical points.
The Bilgeri ski with the binding of the same name dates back to the 1910s.
