Leather Trend Report | 5 Must Have Pieces

This season leather staples are on everyone's radar. From real leather jackets to faux leather trousers, full leather looks too simple corsets, the leather effect has become a preferred fabric choice to elevate our wardrobe. Looking at the investment pieces that you can wear on rotation, here is our leather trend reportwith the brands and pieces to shout about for autumn/ winter that will carry you through work hours and weekends.

The main shift that we are seeing in our wardrobe is the need for versatile pieces as we step into party season. We are looking for smarter, dressier fashion as we move away from our once loungewear-based wardrobe. Anchoring your wardrobe with leather staples whether that be an oversized biker jacket or a pair of straight-leg trousers is what we are seeing across runway and street style. With iconic 90’s inspiration across categories, the film The Matrix springs to mind as we see many A-listers such as Rihanna, Julia Fox and Dua Lipa rocking full leather looks. A key trend for party season, no one is holding back with full leather outfits creating a heavy-duty statement look for autumn/winter.

With that said, faux options have come into their own. It used to be that you didn’t want to lose the soft, matte, quality finish from leather but brands such as Nanushka and Stand Studio have completely elevated the faux leather realm. Creating fashion-led pieces that come completely guilt-free! Here are our top five pieces you need this season...

1. Stand Studio Amelie Faux Leather Jacket

The modern-day boxy jacket from Stand Studio. Made from smooth faux leather, the Amelie jacket has a loose boxy fit with a cosy shearling lining, the perfect jacket for every day.
