Stunning brown leather jacket available from Fashionista of Oldmeldrum. Tel: 01651 873434
Forget biker jackets and black trousers. Go hell for leather in cool colours and fresh textures this season.
Not that there’s anything wrong with a black biker jacket, but right now, it’s time to shake things up with leather looks that are fresh, fun and fashion forward.
This year’s trendiest skirt, the midi, gets a leathery makeover, as do vintage-inspired feminine frocks, proving that this animalistic fabric doesn’t always have to look fierce.
Indeed, designers have employed a paler palette than ever for their leather wares, while metallic accessories offer a shiny shortcut to the trend.
Oh, and it doesn’t actually have to be leather. Pick textile cheat PU (polyurethane) and no one will be any the wiser…
