Looks with a leather jacket: 10 examples to create a bolder style
More than a century ago, this staple piece made its way into the world of fashion and has been going strong ever since for evident reasons. When something comes with such life-long permanency, the way it’s worn and used also keeps developing and changing. From bold to brilliant and dark to upbeat, a leather jacket has proved versatility with its smart rule-breaking and rule-bending techniques.
From effortless looks to all wild and bold, a leather jacket has contributed to it all. Because a leather jacket is nothing else if not bold. So bear in mind two things while pulling a leather jacket look: 1) A leather jacket comes with no rules, so break all the stereotypes and follow your heart. 2) while creating a style statement, always go with the things that are less worn/ used from your wardrobe - because a leather jacket goes with everything and the rarer the ensemble, the better would be your style.
First Know Your Essence
Before you jump on the bandwagon and pick one of these bolder looks, know your unique essence and keep it intact, for things are always hotter when you keep them truer to yourself and leave a flair of yourself in every style you choose. Pick one of these looks keeping essence at the center of it all, because as they say: your essence makes you the “unique you.”
1. Everything Black, But With a Mettalic Touch
As they say, black makes everything more elegant and classy. Adding black color to your leather look makes everything dramatically bold and adds that cold bitch, badass vibe. To top it all, add a metallic touch to your style. Adding a metallic touch could be a bit tricky as you are going with an all-black or black-on-black look, and over-doing it could ruin the vibe, but managing the right amount of it would glamourize the whole look and enhance the bolder appearance of your style.
Metallic touch could be incorporated through:
- Accessories - silver, bronze or gold- these three colors merged through jewelry can dramatically set the pitch of your bolder style statement.
- Footwear - metallic footwear has a huge fanbase, and they are widely known to add appeal and color to look. Pair your silver metallic footwear with your all-dark, all-black look and dazzle your way through the limelight.
- Makeup - rock the metallic touch with wild and chaotic eye-makeup and dark shades of lipstick.
2. Red And Black Combo
- Red, the color depicts all things extreme, crazy and wild. Giving dominance to this color and merging it into your leather look would naturally make it bold and appealing. There are two possible ways to pull this:
- Black leather jacket with red pants and red-shirt
- Red leather jacket with black pants and black shirt
Apart from dressing, red can be merged into the look through accessories, shoes and makeup.
3. Embellished, Patched And Studded Jackets
Embellishments, patchwork and studs - all these things on a jacket can contribute a great deal in rendering a bolder touch to a jacket, which helps the look flow seamlessly and in sync with the jacket’s appearance. Embellishments and patchwork on jackets can come in varied forms, and sometimes it depends on a person’s creativity if he is going for a customized one.
4. Animal Prints On Leather Jacket
Leather jackets with Animal prints have always been one of the most cherished pieces of a fashion staple. In the 80s, the animal print trend was everywhere, and the trend made a solid comeback in 2018 and became a sensation yet again with all those featured catwalks and haute couture revival.
Wearing an animal printed leather jacket would naturally add a fierce and bolder vibe to your look. It is best to pair your animal printed leather jacket with rugged brown pants and darker colors to get the right amount of daring and badass.
5. Rugged Brown Leather Jacket With Animal Printed Shirt Or Pants
Another way to do the animal print trend is to wear a rugged brown jacket with animal-printed leather pants or an inner shirt.
6. Shocking Shades Of Color
Play with colors and experiment. Wear the rarely worn ones with a leather jacket - like wild shades of pinks and purples and turquoise. These colors are dramatic and bold and less frequently chosen with a leather jacket because of their unpredictability. But, if paired with a sleek leather jacket, these colors would shine brilliantly and can add a lot of boldness to your look.
7. Dramatic Bold Prints
Prints and patterns can say a lot about a piece of clothing. From timid to bold and energetic, there are all the different types. Choosing the ones that add a bit of a shock effect to your style and create a more spirited air works wonder.
8. Piercing And Studs
Piercing and studs have always been in fashion, and there have always been two sides to them - 1) that simple side to add some adornments to your look. 2) explicitly worn to give off that bold, punk and rebellious vibe. Merging studs and piercings in your leather jacket look would sky-rocket the boldness factor.
9. Leather Jacket With Shorts
Don’t just limit styling your leather jacket with pants or trousers but try wearing it with denim shorts and see the vogue and bold ensemble it creates.
10. Go With The Rarity, Pair It With Something Doubtful
Everyone has got those rarities stocked-piled in a wardrobe, which gives you skepticism when you think about styling them, but you love them nonetheless. Playing around with those rare pearls and merging them with your leather jacket to create those bolder looks can do wonders.
Conclusion: Mix, merge and experiment - that’s how you roll with a leather jacket.
Faux Suede Leather - As the name suggests, Faux Suede Leather is the synthetic, less expensive version of the otherwise costly and intricate authentic suede leather. Created from microfiber polyester fabric, faux suede items are more reliable than those made from original suede but superior in quality and class but delicate and less durable.
