Bring elegance and luxury to your fall wardrobe.

Fall is the perfect time of year to break out your favourite leather (or faux leather) pieces, whether it be a floor-sweeping trench, combat boots or butter-soft pants. Not only is the material practical in keeping you away from the elements, but it’s also easy to style and instantly brings elegance and luxury to your look. The best part? A well-maintained leather (or faux leather) garment will last you for years to come.
Every year, designers introduce various leather pieces in their Fall/Winter collections, reinventing the wheel with new colours, silhouettes or techniques. This year was no different. Alberta Ferretti sent models down the catwalk in warm caramel brown and basil green, while Chloé’s multicolour scallop patchwork leather coat (as seen in our October 2021 issue) made a bold statement.
On the high street, Aritzia’s Melina Pant has taken over TikTok, and it’s easy to see why: Not only are the vegan leather pants flattering on many body types (the brand offers petite, regular and tall lengths), they also come in a multitude of colourways, from classics such as black and cognac to trendier shades like “Dune Blue” and “Dark Ivy Green.”
