If you love the versatility of this dress as much as we do, switch out your sneakers for a pair of leather ankle boots and a clutch for a night out.

Forget the leather jacket, this Autumn Winter season is all about the leather dress. The leather dress – in new styles and silhouettes – has been spotted at all the biggest shows this season. Designers opted for soft and smooth leather for the ultimate feminine yet tough look. It looks great in real and faux and not necessarily only in black. Givenchy put forward a deep green midi dress; Hermes presented leather shirt shaped dresses while Huishan Zhang opted for sharp pleats.

Here, we show you how to style and wear this new must-have and versatile piece.

For everyday daywear, we suggest taking the statement leather piece and dressing it down to make it more wearable while accessories play a part in putting the look together. For this look, we suggest pairing this sleeveless leather jacket with a long- sleeved white cotton top. Complete the look with Golden Goose’s signature beaten-up sneakers with a leopard print detail and a mini leather tote.
