Inspirations: Leather jackets

Ksyusha took these pictures in different locations in Manchester, featuring leather jackets from Moscow. The leather jacket is a versatile staple, which is guaranteed to give an edge to any outfit.

There are different ways to style a leather jacket:
  • With a chiffon dress, to avoid a very girly look
  • In winter, under a coat, for a touch of rock'n'roll to avoid an overly elegant look. You can add layers by let your sweater show underneath.
  • With a rope of pearls for an eclectic look.
Never wear your leather jacket with biker boots. We are not Marlon Brando.
