LEATHER - YVES SAINT LAURENT
The combination of ultra-soft leather (preferably black) and studs (call it punk couture if you will) is one that has proved impossible for all too many designers to resist this season and, truth to tell, everything from extremely literal interpretations of biker wear to leather cut into more obviously feminine, luxurious and also bourgeois silhouettes is available to all. At Yves Saint Laurent, the designer Stefano Pilati gave over almost his entire collection to leather and very lovely it looks too and any designer worth his or her credentials has included at least one leather jacket in their collection.
