The dominant fabric of choice for F/W ‘18 was decidedly leather. Whether it came by way of trench coats, skirt suits or trousers, a myriad of leather looks appeared all over the runways but there was one that we were particularly drawn to: The dresses.
Interpreted with a buttery soft and sophisticated, ladylike touch, this season’s leather dresses prove that an all-leather-look doesn’t have to remind you of the teenage rebel phase you went through (and probably never want to revisit). Served up in autumnal browns at Tod’s, butterscotch yellow a la Loewe and dusty blue over at Stella McCartney, these dresses are what we want to commit to this fall, faux better or faux worse.
To get you started, we’ve scoped out some of the most stylish designer pieces you’re able to land your hands on right now. Just for the record, we’re racing you to the checkout page.
