This or that? Birds of a feather do LBDs in leather
These stars know exactly how to make leather the talk of the week
Leather jackets, leather pumps and leatherette clutches — we’ve been there, done that. Leather dresses, however, are rare, especially those that don’t end up looking cheesy and cut-rate. These stars knew exactly how to make leather the talk of the week.
Emily Ratajkowski
Hair and make-up
The Gone Girl actor styled her poker-straight brunette hair in flowing waves over her shoulders as she attended the New York Fashion Week event celebrating ‘It Girls’. Her make-up, as usual, was on-point. She sported her signature nude lip and kohl-rimmed eyes. She kept her look understated yet elegantly urbane.
Outfit
The 24-year-old donned a leg-skimming leather mini-dress. Comprising a plunging V-neck and peplum detail, the well-fitted number was cinched at the waist, accentuating the star’s slender middle. Although the leather boasted edgy appeal, Emily carried the ensemble with grace and poise.
Accessories
Standing tall in nude heels by Manolo Blahnik, Emily was clearly a head-turner at the event. Carrying a slim leather clutch that complemented her dress, she kept things simple by adorning fuss-free gold earring and a single gold bangle. We approve.
Heidi Klum
Hair and make-up
The former Victoria’s Secret Angel wore her flaxen tresses free and flowing. Adding a flick to the ends, the supermodel rocked a minimal look with a grey-black smoky eye, a nude lip and a million-watt smile. Who needs more make-up when you look effortlessly stunning?
Outfit
The German beauty highlighted her enviable frame in a sleeveless black leather dress with a high neck and accentuated waist. Fitted like a glove to sculpt her trim bod, the long-legged star did more than justice to the all-black look. Seems like she was made to sport leather.
Accessories
Teaming black patent leather stilettos with her suave dress, the star emitted class and sassiness at the same time. Staying true to her all-jet flair, Heidi sported a neat black manicure and multiple rings coupled with a chunky bangle. Now this is what we call blazing in black.
