Leather was spotted all over the Spring / Summer 2010 runways – and no wonder! Leather has been a fashionistas wardrobe staple for as long as we can remember! Ready to take the plunge and invest in the perfect leather piece? Hips and Curves stylist, Sasha, shares some tips…
The best thing about leather is that it is transitional and can be worn just about every season. Leather may look like it’s strictly meant for biker babes and fetish clubs but when paired with the right pieces it can be totally feminine. Leather is classic, sexy and can fit easily into your wardrobe.”
1. If you’re new to leather and just want to test the waters, start simple. Pair a leather corset with a sweater and your best fitting jeans.
2. Feeling a little more daring? Try a super chic leather mini dress. Accessorize with fishnet thigh highs for a rocker look or go sophisticated with a pair of black leggings.
3. For bedroom attire, try a buttery soft leather corset and g-string, or leather bra and thong with fishnet thigh highs and your sexiest stilettos.
4. Want to get the look straight off the runway? Designer Giles Deacon dressed up waist cinching leather corsets with billowy, ruffled petticoats for his S/S 2010 line. You can get the same look with a leather corset and a ruffled petticoat.
