the leather pant is a key trend in luxury designer fashion this season

How can legions of rock stars, cowboys, and punk royalty be wrong? The enduring allure of a great pair of leather pants manages to convey rebelliousness and refinement. It’s modern and classic at the same time. But like the perfect jeans or swimsuit, they’re a little daunting to shop for.

If the thought of squeezing into a sticky and skin tight pair of leather pants is the last thing you want to do as we head into the holiday feasting season – not to worry. There are plenty of silhouette options from tailored trousers to elastic-waist joggers that suit all styles (and tolerance for discomfort). The best part is once you find your perfect pair of leather pants, the rest is easy. Pair with a simple solid t-shirt, button-down or sweater and suddenly, you’ve achieved that effortless fashion editor look.
