You probably already own an omnipresent leather jacket (or two) thanks to its undeniable emergence everywhere in the fashion circuit—from the runways of Saint Laurent to being a street-style favourite. But this season, leather is not limited to your edgy biker jacket, the material has won our approval in the form of flattering skirts, body-hugging trousers, tops decorated with silver hardware, and chunky, ankle boots.
From the belted trench as seen at Proenza Schouler Fall 2017 to the leather berets spotted at Dior Spring Summer 2020, there are multiple sartorial directions you can go in. For an unconventional take on the trend, pair a cutout zip jacket over a bralette like Janhvi Kapoor. Or, opt for a bright, flared, high-shine leather skirt for a street style edge like Priyanka Chopra. All that’s needed to complete the look is a pair of black sunglasses and unfazed attitude.
