Leather skirts of various styles are a must-have in the wardrobe of any fashionista today. Surprisingly suitable for any wardrobe, any age and status, these things can become an indispensable part of everyday and capsule wardrobe, as well as complement the evening set. The brutality and chic of leather materials are used in any style and with a variety of clothes and shoes, so this skirt has become a trend for the past few seasons and will not go out of fashion soon.
Pencil
This style can transform from classic office to glamorous, be part of a casual wardrobe, so an eco-leather pencil skirt will come in handy for any girl. The soft sheen of the fabric will give this strict item a touch of glamorous chic, so this item can also become the basis for an evening out. In principle, a pencil is a fairly versatile silhouette that will suit almost any figure and height. However, pay attention to the length. The classic knee-length suits everyone, but the elongated model that covers the knee does not always look good on short girls. If the skirt covers the knee, it must beyou need a heel, and the fuller the calves and legs, the thinner the heel should be, which will balance the proportions.
You can wear a leather pencil skirt with cropped fitted jackets, leather jackets and cardigans. Ideal combination with a thin jumper or blouse tucked into the belt. A voluminous top tucked into a tight skirt looks beautiful. Tight jumpers and turtlenecks also look good, especially in the color of the skirt. High-waisted model can be safely combined with cropped sweaters, jumpers, sweatshirts and crop tops.
Shoes with a leather pencil skirt can be almost anything - pumps with thin stilettos, ankle boots with stable heels, tractor-soled boots, sandals, slip-ons, loafers and even sneakers, especially if the skirt is not too straight office cut.
Pleated
Pleated items are back in fashion, not only in chiffon, satin or velvet, but also in leather. They can be sewn from thin eco-leather or from a denser material, then such a skirt will keep its shape well, and the folds on it will be wide enough.
A pleated skirt is suitable for any woman, as longitudinal pleats create vertical stripes that perfectly stretch the figure, making it taller and slimmer. The main thing is to choose the right length so that it does not "cut" the figure and does not shorten the legs. Here, a leather midi skirt would be an ideal option. Also look carefully at the belt - the skin in combination with folds can give extra volume at the waist. Therefore, it is preferablean option when the pleated fabric is sewn onto a stiff, smooth and wide belt - it will make the waist more pronounced.
Pleated skirts also look good with a voluminous top, but in any case, do not wear it outside. The only time this is allowed is long oversized voluminous sweaters that look deliberately wide and large. They, combined with a feminine pleated skirt peeking out from under the sweater, create an interesting contrast.
You can wear leather pleated skirts with any shoes, just like the pencil model. As for colors, they can be anything, but don't stop at black. Models made of powdery, pink, beige leather look beautiful and stylish. Shades play in the folds, making the look soft and feminine.
Godet
Another silhouette re-introduced after the 80s. Godet is a style of leather skirts and models from any other fabrics, in which the thing is narrow at the hips and strongly flared downwards. Moreover, the year can be both knee-length and in the mini version. Such a thing looks very youthful and mischievous.
You can wear it with tight tights, rough boots or ankle boots with wide heels. Pairs well with godet and over the knee boots.
This style makes the figure sophisticated and feminine and suits many girls. However, if you have an apple shape and have a tummy or extra volume in the hips or waist, be careful to choose skirts that fit the top. If other styles can be combined with a voluminous top, maskingthe stomach, then the year does not allow this - the volume at the bottom will contrast sharply with the imperfect top.
Peplum skirt
Despite the fact that the peplum is no longer as relevant as a couple of years ago, it has firmly entered the wardrobes of women around the world. And this is no coincidence - the peplum looks elegant, but not defiant, it is able to hide the imperfections of the figure and smooth out the proportions. Considering that the thin skin of the skirt hugs the figure and emphasizes the imperfect belly or waist, then the peplum is just right here - it will cover problem areas, while maintaining the seductive silhouette of a tight skirt.
Carefully choose what to wear with a leather peplum skirt. Best of all, it looks with a tight-fitting top, always tucked into the belt. Since the peplum refers us to the new look style, which is characterized by an accentuated waist and a pronounced hip line, choose shoes and accessories in this style. It can be blouses and tops with a neckline, small elegant clutches, stiletto pumps, in general, everything that will make the image sophisticated and very feminine.
Leather pencil skirt with peplum will bring a new touch to the office dress code. The unique combination of strict feminine shapes and playful leather fabric will make the look fresh and unusual. And for a more informal and even evening out, choose an option with an asymmetrical peplum - soft thin leather, falling in folds of different lengths on the hips, will make you sexy and sophisticated.
A-Line
Flared skirts are a classic for all time. It's a versatile silhouettesuits everyone without exception, both thin and full, both tall and short girls, both young ladies and aged ladies. The main thing here is to choose the right length. For tall ones, it can be anything, but for small stature, choose a skirt that covers the knee. A-line models up to the middle of the calf look very beautiful, but only in combination with thin graceful ankles. Also, the length should be combined with the age of their owner. Young girls can choose a mini, but older ladies must cover their knees.
Leather flared skirt looks very feminine, emphasizing the waist and making the hips more seductive. If the skin for the skirt is dense enough, then it will keep its shape well, emphasizing the silhouette. Support this clean lines with other things - a rigid bag, straight-heeled shoes, a perfectly tailored jacket.
Sun
This is a rather controversial silhouette, because due to the large number of folds at the waist, it can fill up and give extra volume to the hips and stomach. Only soft fabrics that fold well into folds are suitable for such a skirt, so very thin plastic skin can look quite interesting in this style. In addition, if other fabrics can simplify the image due to this style, then the skin, on the contrary, will give the sun skirt a new sound.
If you are in doubt about what to wear with a leather sun skirt, then remember that this style looks best with a top that emphasizes the waist, so pay attention to crop tops, tight T-shirts and fitted blouses. Gooda thin turtleneck that fits the figure is suitable.
Choose the length to the knee - this is a universal option. A shorter skirt will look too playful and will decorate few people, and it is more difficult to choose the right shoes for the longer option.
In order not to add extra volume to the figure, choose the sun from matte leather in dark shades. Glitter and light colors will make the hips and waist even wider. Although for tall girls who wear size 42, this effect may even be on hand.
The feminine silhouette of the sun also requires suitable shoes - thin heels, graceful shapes. However, bold fashionistas can play with contrasts by complementing such a fashionable leather skirt with rough boots, leather jackets or an oversized sweater.
Maxi length
Usually when we talk about a leather skirt, we think of a knee-length mini or midi skirt. However, it can also be maxi length. Wearing such a thing is a little more difficult, but that's what makes it more interesting. Her material must be very thin and plastic, otherwise it will be difficult to move around in it. Pleated leather is ideal - it is more mobile and lighter.
You should not choose a floor-length leather skirt - it will be difficult to manage with it. This is more a catwalk option or an outfit for a photo shoot than for everyday life. But if you definitely want to have a long stylish leather skirt - pay attention to the new reading of the new look style and pick up a flared model up to the middle of the ankle. This length combined with a narrow waist and curvaceousin the hip area will make the figure feminine. In this look, it is very important to emphasize the waist and add height with thin heels.
Models with pockets
Pockets on a straight or A-line leather skirt will add a touch of relaxation and informality to your look. It can be both set-in pockets and decorative overlays - in any case, they will make your skirt suitable for a casual look or for combining it with sportswear - sneakers, hoodies or sweatshirts.
Intricate fit and slits
Leather is a material that holds its shape perfectly, so the most complex and unusual cut suits it. And he can turn an ordinary black skirt into a real work of art and the brightest detail of your image.
Therefore, pay attention to models with slits in front, with hem of different lengths, with decorative stitching and pleats - all these details will make the image very unusual. For such a thing it is worth choosing the most concise top and accessories. For example, a white blouse or blue shirt, a black leather jacket or cardigan, laconic pumps and a tote bag.
Details - studs, zippers and fringes
If rivets and zippers have always accompanied leather things (remember the most famous representatives - biker and rocker leather jackets), then fringe is a new trend. Today, fringe is in fashion and is present in almost all collections of fashion designers and mass-market brands. Fringe complements not only outerwear, but also skirts. And she can beas a detail on the belt, and decorate the hem, combined with other decorative elements.
A leather skirt with a zipper or fringe is a very bright piece of clothing, you need to choose details and additions to it with special care to make the image harmonious.
Lace
Another detail that, unlike zippers and studs, will play in contrast. Brutal leather combined with romantic lace is a thing not for modest, but for daring fashionistas. A skirt with this combination of materials should be very simple in cut. You can complement it with heeled ankle boots or even over the knee boots. And if the combination with lace confuses you, then do not be afraid - the skin will give it brutality.
