The leather trend is back, and it has taken the trends streets by storm! The great thing about lovely leather is that it can be adapted for all seasons.
If real leather is a bit out of your budget, worry not, as you can go for pleather or faux leather for an equally fab look. Read on to find out how celebrities are loving and styling the leather trend.
BONANG MATHEBA
Patent leather is a type of glossy leather that was introduced in the 1800s. Besides being waterproof, this leather is quite attractive and versatile. Queen B keeps it classy with a two-piece bomber and pencil skirt. You too can rock patent leather, just remember to keep your accessories minimal so that the outfit can be the centre of attention.
BOITUMELO THULO
Boity shows us that leather doesn’t have to be full on. Her coat with a subtle leather shoulder trimming is the perfect example of how stylish and effective leather can be. Keeping things minimalistic, Boity pairs her OOTD with a beret and black pumps for afternoon lunch feels. You can pair yours with knee-length boots and a high ponytail to draw attention to the details.
NADIA NAKAI
Yes please to coloured leather! Rapper Nadia Nakai goes all out in a red bustier-style dress with puffed sleeves, proving that there really are no limits to a grand leather look. Nadia’s all-red ensemble, which she dubbed ‘the flame’, is over the top, but because she keeps accessories to a minimum, the overall effect is a win.
THABSIE
Keeping things ultra clean and simple (but oh so stunning), singer Thabsie makes the point that less is indeed more. Thabsie wears a skinny strapped midi dress with a slit that’s just right. To add a touch of glitz to her elegant look, she adds a gold-buckled belt and dons black and gold strappy heels. Dare we say her mane fits the theme perfectly too?
ZINHLE JIYANE
DJ Zinhle is undoubtedly one of the celebrities who’s been at the forefront of the leather trend. The stylish mom of two switches outfits sporting leather items like a pro. We love that she goes all out with her Era by Dj Zinhle accessories, serving biker chic vibes as she rocks knee-high boots with patterned stockings, a mini skirt and our favourite – the shacket.
