Leather makes a huge statement this fall.
Leather designs this year are extremely innovative, abstract and dimensional. There will be the usual pencil skirts and bomber jackets but the look is not predictable and boring. A few weeks ago we saw Angelina Jolie in a Michael Kors sheath. While the look was not out of the ordinary the fit made the outfit. So did the minimal jewelry. Those are key components when wearing leather with style. Poorly fit leather is a no no as is big sparkly jewelry. Leather is a sleek kick ass look when done properly. It has enough power by itself that it does not need a lot of accessory elements.
A look that is attractive is mixing leather with a soft fabric. Leather can be teamed with a silk button down or ruffle wrapped soft blouse or sweater. Ruffles are just as big as leather this fall. Instead of lots of accessory jewelry pair some great thigh high or ankle boots. The topshop has a variety of reasonably priced boots and they can be purchased in the US online. Capes and overcoats are practical items that look great in leather. Saddlebag handbags are a popular season look. With the Amelia Earhart movie coming to theatres soon Hermes has added an aviator style to their leathers. Rick Owens the California designer who is now living in Europe has some of the best leather designs this year. The model above is wearing an Owens design and that is just one of dozens of angled, layered and tubular pieces in the line. Iron is a huge color for fall and is a great choice for leather.

Leather brings back wonderful memories from the 60's and 70's. The one performer whose image was tied to leather was Jim Morrison. Who can forget the poured on leather pants to go with his signature henley shirts and frye boots. The pants Jim used to wear are very similiar to what is being shown today. They always ask at beauty pageants" if you could meet one person living or dead who would that be". Jim Morrison would be the answer.
Leather clothes need special care. Do not press another garment into your leather piece. Leather can indent or puncture. Let the leather have some space to breathe. If you need the leather cleaned it is suggested to use a professional cleaner like Spartan in West Palm Beach. Leather unlike manmade materials is very comfortable. It is a wonderful choice for fall dressing.
