SHOP Bess: Thigh Tights, $396 start here

My leather binge strikes again! Leather leggings are all the rage right now, and leave it up to the designers at Bess to make a pair worth every penny. Bess’ thigh tights are a cotton lycra pant with stretch lambskin leather, thigh high legs. The stretch stitching and seems at the knees make these leggings not only fashionable, but comfortable and resilient!

Combining the world’s two sexiest elements, leather and skin, Demeulemeester’s Spring 2010 collection is a minimalist version of biker-chic. We’ve seen a lot of leather this season, and while I can’t get enough of it, the best part of Demeulemeester’s collection is undoubtedly the birdcage inspired accessories and shoes.

Dresses by Iona Crawford, this laser cutting (which is easy for designers because leather doesn’t fray) gives the backs of her dresses a dead-tree look, which I have some odd fascination with.  The bottom patterns are by student Kasia Bishop, and show how the laser cutting works.  Look out for this trend, as a lot of designers are catching on.
