What: Trans-seasonal Leather.
Why: Because we drooled over leather in the best collections this week in Paris (for next spring summer 2010.) Because when Balmain and Balenciaga show leather you know this hot trend is just getting hotter. Because when Kate Moss wears a leather dress you know you want it. Because this trend has been lurking quietly in winter and now Warrior woman is back. And she’s taking over. Say au revoir to soft and pretty BoHo, it’s Bonjour to tough, elegant chic. Invest now! Wear it right this minute (while it’s freezing) then into summer and straight into next winter. It’s futuristic….
Which: Yes, you know the leather biker jacket is hot but now leather morphs into different shapes, silhouettes and styles. You want a leather skirt, dress, vest or shorts. Chloe Sevigny can rock a leather jumpsuit but that’s not for everyone. ( “super slut super hero” ! )Tip: stick to black brown or grey.
Wear: With something soft to tone the tough leather. Try a white shirt, jeans, denim shirt, a grey Tee, layer over a pretty dress.
Where: Try Willow. Acne, Assin for Rick Owens, Portmans, Sportsgirl, Witchery , Net a porter, mytheresa.com, Luisaviaroma.
