Luxury brand Moncler – the maker of down jackets that have become status symbols around the world – pulled out all the stops to unveil the fall/winter 2026 Moncler Grenoble collection in Aspen, Colorado, on Saturday.
Grenoble is Moncler’s skiwear line, offering performance pieces that marry high functionality with sleek design. In 2024, the brand unveiled the range in St. Moritz, Switzerland, while last year it travelled to another glamorous alpine location: Courchevel, France.Located up in the Rocky Mountains, Aspen is renowned for its uphill ski runs and powdery snow. Besides its popular slopes, the town also boasts a very chic après-ski scene and is home to high-end hotels and watering holes that attract A-listers all year round.

“Aspen has always been a hub for this glamorous side and scene, as well as these beautiful mountains, and when I heard Moncler was going to do a show here [ … ] I thought, it’s going to be probably the best, most exciting one by far and I’m just so proud to be a part of it,” said White in an interview before the show. White’s own label Whitespace collaborated with Moncler on the design of a series of snowboards that were part of the collection.
Jennie from Blackpink, model Emily Ratajkowski, and actors Orlando Bloom and Adrien Brody were among the other celebrities who braved the cold to attend the show. The freezing weather, however, was an opportunity for Moncler to showcase the technical prowess of Moncler Grenoble’s functional and stylish garments.
