The Occasion

Roaring Boldly at 50

This milestone is about more than a birthday. It's the culmination of two lifelong passions — fashion and skiing — and the launch of something I've dreamed about for years.

On a mountain in Chile, on my 50th birthday, I'll take the first run in the inaugural suit as I debut Blazing Lioness Ski.

Bold. Feminine. Fiery. Roar loudly.

On the outside, I'm the Blazing Lioness — all fire and gold. Inside, I'm a Paisley Heart, a Bohemian Soul. Five days of powder, fire, and celebration at 10,000 feet — and I want you there for every bit of it. Join the pride.

The Location

The Andes — the Tres Valles

High above Santiago lies the Tres Valles — Valle Nevado, La Parva, and El Colorado/Farellones — three lift-linked resorts that form the largest ski domain in South America. The celebration centers at Valle Nevado, but you can stay anywhere across the valleys, which means far more lodging options for everyone. And yes: August is peak ski season here.

The mountains

Three connected resorts, ~7,000 acres for every level — lessons available for beginners. Explore skiing in Chile →

Getting there

Fly into Santiago International (SCL); a scenic ~1.5-hour drive up the Andes — group transfer arranged.

Good to know

Winter in the Andes — pack warm layers; high altitude (~10,000 ft), so ease in & hydrate. Dress the theme: Fire & Ice.

Where we stay

Across the Tres Valles — hotels, lodges & private chalets. Group options being arranged (see Travel).

The Plan
