As the fashion world sets its sights on Paris Fashion Week, let’s recap some of the unforgettable leather pieces and street style snaps spotted at New York Fashion Week this past February.
A signature piece in every it-girl’s closet, having a leather motorcycle jacket is practically an essential these days. Bloggers and models alike rocked their own statement jacket in all it’s iterations, including classic, simple cuts and ready to roll punk styles.For a spicy mix of patterns, drape a studded leather jacket over a faux-fur base, fitted blazer. Braving the chilly temps, one blogger proudly opted for sheer lace base layer for an added hint of intrigue.
Let your tough leather jacket speak volumes, wear over a sexy piece with a plunging neckline and flirty, floral skirt for a feminine look. Or, mix things up with a masculine look, wear your leather jacket over an all-over printed blouse and a pair of leather joggers.
Sound a little bit too daring? Opt for a classic, sophisticated look with a leather jacket layered over a chic maxi dress. Or, keep things minimal with a monochromatic outfit in white or black. Buyers and journalists on the move need a quick outfit swap, what better choice than with a floppy fedora, chester coat and tiered leather maxi skirt.
Donning a head-to-toe all black look is undeniably fresh, no matter how many collections you’ve seen. As always, designer handbags are definitely no stranger to leather. This season, we’ve spotted the ever-ubiquitous YSL handbags as often as oversized leather satchels at the waist for an off-duty model look.
“Sports luxe” has been a key trend since last year’s unveiling of A/W 14-15 collections, by means of those of-the-moment leather varsity jackets down the DKNY runway.
Nowadays, it couldn’t be easier to elevate a simple jeans and cardi look to something seriously worthy of street style envy. Bundle up in an oversized, boyfriend style varsity jacket, complete with athletic-inspired patches and sporty embroidery. Lush leather sleeves will not only fend off the chill, but keep you looking stylish as ever as you jet from show to afterparty. While we set our clocks to spring ahead, gain a little outfit inspiration with these key leather street style looks.
