**This season, leather is an excellent choice. As temperatures drop, it provides both warmth and durability, while its natural waterproof qualities make it ideal for unpredictable weather. Beyond its practicality, leather adds an edgy touch to any outfit, effortlessly elevating your style with a bold, sophisticated flair. Read on for our top picks of the best leather biker jackets, as well as leather coats, trousers, tops, and skirts.**
Best Leather Biker Jacket
Biker jackets are perhaps the most classic leather item that can be found in many wardrobes. From their asymmetric zips, to their wide lapels, to their close-fitting silhouettes, biker jackets are perfect for providing an extra layer of warmth without covering up an outfit.
They offer an edgier approach to an outer layer than other traditional designs like trench coats and puffer coats, as the contrasting hardware and asymmetric accents make for a dynamic outer layer with enticing detail.
Best Leather Coats
Choosing a leather coat this winter is a smart decision. It is not only a timeless wardrobe staple but also perfect for layering, providing extra warmth while completing your outfit. Leather is a durable material that withstands all weather conditions and lasts for years. A leather coat is a key piece in your A/W wardrobe, offering endless styling possibilities—whether paired with your favourite jeans, layered over a cosy knitted dress, or combined with leather trousers for a bold, all-leather look.
Best Leather Trousers
Leather trousers should be considered a wardrobe staple on par with your failsafe denim jeans. With all the comfort of go-to denim, with added protective properties of leather and faux leather, leather trousers are the ideal trouser option when looking for something a little different.
On cold days, leather trousers can easily be styled with a knit jumper and chunky boots, then layered under a longline coat for an outfit that takes you from work days to Christmas markets. When the weather changes, style leather trousers with casual trainers or loafers and a cropped T-shirt for an edgier approach to Spring/Summer dressing.
Best Leather Tops
Add more edge to an evening look by replacing your go-to button up with a leather alternative. With fits that flatter and flaunt the figure, as well as features like ties, corset styles, and even traditional tailoring, a leather top instantly elevates any look into a versatile day to night outfit.
Wear them with failsafe denim for a casual approach, then style with tailored trousers or a skirt and tights for a look that is certain to catch eyes from the cocktail bar to dinner plans.
Best Leather Skirts
For when you need something more formal than trousers, or are just looking for something different, have you considered a leather skirt?
With lengths ranging from mini to maxi, a diverse range of silhouettes from flared to fitted, and colours ranging from neutral to bold and bright, a leather skirt from Karen Millen can take you to almost any occasion or event. Style with a blouse, tights, and heels for looks appropriate for the boardroom, the bar, and everything in-between.
