Perfect Moment UK: Where to Buy, Sizing and Delivery

Perfect Moment is easy to buy in the UK: the brand’s women’s skiwear is available on Coveti alongside its own site and British stockists such as Selfridges, and it is cut to a UK size ladder that runs from XS (UK 6) to XL (UK 14). The full range sits on our Perfect Moment brand page and in the women’s skiwear edit, and the ski trousers come in Regular and Long leg lengths, which matters if you are tall. For the full measurement chart, see our Perfect Moment size guide.

Where to buy Perfect Moment in the UK

Perfect Moment sells through its own website, its seasonal stores in New York and Kitzbuhel, and a set of wholesale partners. The brand’s About page lists Net-a-Porter, Mytheresa, Saks and Neiman Marcus, and Selfridges also carries the label.

On Coveti, the range is split by what you need for the mountain: ski jackets, ski trousers and salopettes, ski suits and base layers. The knitwear, which British shoppers tend to call ski jumpers, lives in sweaters.

One practical point on authenticity: the 24-month warranty only applies to products bought from Perfect Moment and its authorised sellers. Keep your order confirmation, because you will need proof of purchase if a zip, seam and stitch line gives way within that window.

Perfect Moment UK sizing

The label is Chamonix-born and New York-headquartered, but it was owned and redesigned by a British-Swiss couple, Jane and Max Gottschalk, from 2010. That shows in the sizing, which is printed in letters but translates neatly to UK numbers. Here is the brand chart:

The brand describes most of its outerwear as fitted. It does not say its pieces run small, but if you sit between sizes, and you plan to wear a merino mid layer under your jacket, take the larger size. The Apres sweater is the exception the brand calls out: it runs true to size.

Ski trousers and salopettes: Regular vs Long

British shoppers search for salopettes and ski trousers; Perfect Moment calls both ski pants. Every style uses the same two leg lengths: Regular with an 80 cm inseam and Long with an 84 cm inseam, whatever the waist size. The Long versions carry an L in the SKU. If you are 175 cm and above, start with Long, since a flared hem needs to break over the boot to look right.

The bestseller is the High-Waist Aurora Flare Ski Pant in Black, with 10K waterproof, breathable fabric, 4-way stretch, a thermal fleece lining and snow gaiters. For proper salopettes with a bib front, the JG Bib Ski Pant in White adds 4-way stretch, fleece lining and scuff guards at the hem. Our guide to women’s ski bibs compares the bib styles.

Delivery and duties to the UK

Coveti ships most regions Delivered Duty Unpaid (DDU). In plain terms, the price you pay at checkout covers the product and shipping, and any import duty and VAT due on arrival in the UK is charged separately by the carrier before delivery. We cannot promise a UK order will arrive duty-free, so budget for it, and check the delivery terms shown at checkout for your order.

Timing matters more than usual for skiwear. Brand searches peak in December and January, which is when everyone else is shopping too. If you are skiing over February half term, order well ahead so you have time to try everything on with your base layers.

Repairs and warranty for UK skiers

This is where British customers do better than most. Perfect Moment runs repairs with United Repair Centre, a B-Corp social enterprise with facilities in Amsterdam and London, and the service is offered in the UK and EU only. The brand aims to return repaired items 7 to 10 days after they arrive.

Separately, the 24-month warranty covers defects in material and workmanship on products bought from the brand and its authorised sellers. It excludes wear and tear, misuse and unauthorised repairs, and the brand chooses the remedy, from a repair to a replacement to a credit. For trade-ins, Perfect Moment works with Reflaunt, which pays you in Perfect Moment credit without waiting for the item to sell.

What to pack for a UK ski trip

The Alps

Most British skiers head to the French, Swiss and Austrian Alps, and Perfect Moment was built for exactly that: the brand was founded in Chamonix in 1984 by the skier and filmmaker Thierry Donard. For a week in the Alps, a down jacket with a snow skirt and helmet-compatible hood does most of the work. The Polar Flare Down Jacket in Black has 10K waterproof fabric and 700-fill-power Allied down, and our Polar Flare guide covers every version. Resort-by-resort advice is in our guide to Perfect Moment in Europe and our Courchevel style guide.

Scotland

Scotland has five ski centres: Cairngorm Mountain near Aviemore, Glenshee, The Lecht, Nevis Range on Aonach Mor and Glencoe, which VisitScotland describes as the country’s oldest ski centre. The season traditionally runs from December to late March, with January and February usually best for snow. Scottish skiing is wetter and windier than the Alps, so waterproofing matters more than loft. Look at the 10K-rated jackets, keep a spare base layer in the car and choose a hood you can wear over a helmet. The 80s Slalom Bib Ski Pant in Black keeps snow and wind off your middle on exposed chairlifts.

The jumper for the pub afterwards

The star motif is the house signature, and it is on the knits. The Star Dust Merino Wool Sweater in Black has an all-over star print and works as well in a Highland pub as it does at apres. See our Perfect Moment sweaters guide for the full knitwear line-up, and the ski trip packing list for everything else.
