Over the last few years, balaclavas have become one of winter's biggest accessories.
We should have seen this coming: During the summer of 2021 (yes, summer), Kim Kardashian sported a full face covering, courtesy of Balenciaga, to one of Kanye West’s Donda listening parties. A few weeks later, the Skims founder traded the style for a leather "face mask" to step out in New York (when it was still hot out, no less!). In September, she attended the Met Gala in a full face covering and dress that launched a thousand memes, accompanied by Balenciaga designer Demna Gvasalia in a similar mask. (Gossip Girl actor Evan Mock also wore a full face mask, paired with a shorts suit, to the American-themed red carpet.)
