Are leather jackets in style for 2023?
Leather jackets will continue to be in style for 2023. They’re classics now!
Iterations of leathers were spotted at Mugler’s FW22 show in the form of motocross jackets, aviators at Kenzo, cropped styles at Ralph Lauren and polka dot-printed jackets at Chanel.
With the shift to a more conscious mindset for consumption, people want more sustainable iterations of the long-favoured trend. Faux and vegan leather isn’t just cheaper, but they’re cruelty-free too.
