All-Weather Leather

Spring leather? Blame climate change.  Blame the fact that these clothes arrive in stores in the dead of winter. Designers are pushing spring leather like never before. Across the board, leather and suede are being featured as the “go-to” fabric for transition from winter to spring. They’re light in weight, supple, tissue thin, draped, and molded to the shape of the body. But, most of all, they are LUXURIOUS! Mix them with your favorite wools and cashmeres.  Be sure to carry them over into your early spring tropicals and silks for a fresh approach to spring dressing.
