Is there anything more fun than an elegant apres ski-themed event? Today, I wanted to unveil an apres ski entertaining guide, including 10 items that will help elevate your dinner party, cocktail reception, and beyond. Best of all, these pieces were designed by two of my favorite things – Mark & Graham and Gray Malin.
Gray has partnered with Mark & Graham to release a collection of aprés ski-inspired home decor and accessories. Additionally, they’re all based on his iconic Aspen photography series. In so many ways, these whimsical items will elevate your next ski style party.
Apres Ski Entertaining Guide
So what can you expect for the collection? First of all, everything is under $100. In fact, most items are under $50, so they make great holiday gifts for friends and family. As with all Mark & Graham products, the pieces may be monogrammed for that extra personalized touch.
There are nine total pieces in the line, and there’s truly something for everyone. From chic coasters to cocktail napkins, wine sweaters to catchalls, the Mark & Graham x Gray Malin is just pure fun and festive for the holiday season ahead.
Whether you’re planning a dinner party for family or cocktail hour with friends, these pieces will certainly be the talk of the table among guests.
Who is Gray Malin?
New to Gray Malin? If so, I’m so excited to share some of his background. Beyond his iconic photography, Gray is an accomplished author, entrepreneur, and creative. Every year, it seems like he elevates his game even ore with new and innovative capsule collections and photography series releases.
A few years ago, I had the chance to meet Gray in-person, and he’s as delightful and amazing as you’d hope. He radiates joy and fun – someone you want to grab a glass of Veuve Clicquot with (well, more!). Even after all of his success, Gray brings a down-to-earth vibe to every conversation and wants everyone to feel a part of the party.
Moreover, while he’s often known for his beach and warm-weather photography, he’s also the king of snowy destinations too – especially Aspen. Therefore, he’s the perfect person to work with Mark & Graham to unveil an aprés ski-inspired series of products.
