Lovin Leather

There is nothing like an amazing jacket to pull your outfit together. For Fall teasers we’re seeing a lots o’ leather on the runway over every type of outfit – evening, casual, couture you name it. It’s a great way to add a dash of spunk (or punk) to your look.
Leather has a best friend this season – zippers! Zippers are everywhere on leather jackets from subtle to over the top to give them that real ‘biker’ look.
One thing I’ve noticed is the jackets are getting smaller and smaller. Last season it was the form fitting bomber, this season it’s a much smaller, shrunken version of that. Lots of 3/4 sleeves or 1/2 sleeved jackets that hit right above the belly button. Pair these mini jackets with a long sleeved turtleneck (shown here by Phi) or my best buy last season – elbow length ruched leather gloves.
Tip: You can hike up and ‘ruche’ the sleeves on last years’ bomber to achieve this look because we all know leather is expensive!
