Saturday, January 2nd, 2010


leather-dress-trendNow that we have explored the one-shouldered look, let’s go ahead and talk about the leather dress look.  Now, if you have been following all of the fashion trends for last year and this year, I can promise that you have seen leather as a trend.

Now, for the spring time, if you are planning to wear a dress, it should be a little on the heavy side and should be leather.  Leather is not only one of the best materials in the world but it looks sexy as hell.

Leather dresses folks – if you want to look hot and be fashionable in the spring, leather dresses are the way to do it!

Is this Fashion or Arts & Crafts?

49345755Remember how we were talking about deconstruction the other day? Well, this is a great example of what I meant by that.

Rodarte, with sister designers Laura and Kate Mulleavy at the helm, are the driving force behind this upcoming arts and crafts fad. We will be seeing lots of dresses evocative of cobwebs, for instance, and collages made of things like sandpaper silk, lace, leather, and cheesecloth in burnt plaids.

There will be a whole lot of braiding to be seen as well. Rodarte is weaving skirts and vests out of leather braid. Caroline Herrera has debuted a vest with rope weaving. Chado Ralph Rucci went one better and is offering a fabulous braided leather jacket, complete with tassels along the hem. Even Diane von Furstenberg has gone mad for macrame.

Angelina JolieIn 2010, there are going to be so many different fashion trends slipping and sliding around, it is very hard to keep track of them all!  However!  That does not mean that we can not keep up with them all because that is what we are here for!

Leather folks, leather is what we are talking about right now and it is going to be one of the hottest trends in the year 2010.  Whether you have a leather top, dress, skirt or even some leather lingerie – it is all about leather.

Angelina is no virgin to leather either, for she is definitely the bad girl of this generation and she rocked out the leather trend early when she showed up at her most recent red carpet show wearing a black leather Michael Kors dress.  This dress looks beautiful on her body and oh god – leather is an awesome trend!
