Steep Vs Cheap: Luxe Leather Jackets

This season the biker jacket has gone super-luxe with designers from Christopher Kane to Helmut Lang giving the style staple a feminine twist making the most of tailored cuts in ultra soft leather. Following previous trends for distressed and studded power-leather it’s a refreshing change to see the fabric in a new softer light.

The re-worked classic is a top trend for spring that will give your wardrobe that new season feel. Especially covetable is this ruffle front jacket from D&G, £750, which mixes soft shapes with a hard rock edge – great for girls who like to go for a more feminine feel.

The good news is that we’ve found an amazing copy of the jacket from online retailer AWear for just £100. Not only does it fit right on trend but it’s a wardrobe staple that will continue to look fabulous beyond this season.

Go for laid back luxe and pair with high-waisted chinos, stacked wedges and a printed scarf for a stylish edge. Fashionable admirers will never tell the difference!
