50 Shades of Leather

If there’s one trend this season that will take you on to new levels of sartorial experimentation, it’s leather. In all its shapes and forms, it will lead you into a world unknown where pretty much everything goes as it plays to any character you want it to. Leather is a multifaceted and surprisingly functional gem which has quickly become the object of our desires. Although black is an obvious choice, pieces are dipped in the colour of the season: burgundy. The subcultural connotations that this trend alludes to are interesting, at times dark, but never boring. Modern spins, beautiful cuts that are soft-as-butter or sharp and edgy – indulge in leather lust.

The leather jacket has surpassed the test of time, of course, notably as a staple – sometimes perhaps as a statement piece – in our wardrobes. In this season’s leather revival, the leather jacket is no longer a trusty item to fall back on. Let it take centre stage in aviator, biker or oversized styles.
