Leather Jackets for A/W2011/12
You don’t need a Harley to jump on this season’s biker trend, but it sure wouldn’t hurt. Whether you pair yours with lace or spiked studs, you’ll have trouble making it through autumn without a leather jacket. The answer may lie in a trend that has been around for some time, but a trend that hasn’t been able to be much more than a blip on the radar while in the shadow of military fashion. The trend? The biker jacket. If that staple’s well covered in your closet, trends begin, they evolve, and then they fade or simply become a standard. Skinny jeans became a standard, the military trend cannot.
So as 2011's fashion trends come to fruition, as we move fully into a new decade, and as military chic becomes as drawn out as the war that inspired it, what becomes of the military influences that have helped keep the likes of Balmain and DSquared2 in fashionisers’ conscience? What replaces it? Can you imagine the military trend without a military jacket? Not possible. And so it goes without saying that the biker jacketis the key statement piece for the motorcycle / biker fashion trend.
