Leather and Latex Fashion Trends
Jeremy Scott is known for being wildly irreverent with his fashion collections. This season was no exception, with bright patterns and bold hues. Scott opted for a fearless, in your face approach with graphic prints reading “HOT HOT HOT”.
Models wore sleek bob hairstyles and gave off some serious Barbie doll vibes. Each and every look from Jeremy Scott Spring/Summer 2017 was ultra cool and totally sizzling, especially the ones with latex involved. One outfit featured a graphic cropped top reading “New York” layered over a black latex skirt and pointed pink pumps.
Another two piece look featured a long-sleeved top with knit sleeves, held together by o-rings and bondage-inspired straps. The latex definitely gives this look a sleek feel. Looking totally mod, another model sported a black latex bustier paired with a pleated skirt with a graphic print, while another wore a blue latex bra over a three-dimensional, abstract shaped skirt.
Leather was also prominently featured in Jeremy Scott’s collection, appearing as tough looking trousers on a male model and edgy yet chic with a leather cut-out dress. With tons of silver accents and rows of O-rings, one leather number looked totally killer.
Balenciaga is all about volume and shape for next spring and summer. Patent vinyl and latex fabrics were in rotation, especially with a lemon colored hooded raincoat. Florals were popular here, and the raincoat certainly looked charming with floral printed booties.
Another set of coats were in the mix, including a sleek black patent vinyl trench coat. For styling ideas, contrast with a bold set of tights, like lime green, for a look that’ll have all eyes on you. Another style featured an all black stretch vinyl raincoat, worn with the hood up for extra drama.
Style with a loose, open drape for a carefree look. From the look of things, it seems like latex, leather and patent vinyl fabrics are circulating on the fashion forecast for next season.
