Most fashion trends come and go, but some materials have the power to stay forever and fashionable. The perfect example of this is natural leather. For centuries, leather has been used in the fashion industry and it seems that it will never go away. In this blog, we take a closer look at how leather has evolved into a symbol of style and class.
The evolution of leather clothing
The times we live in, almost all brands have switched from real leather to vegan leather (also known as artificial, synthetic or imitation leather). A major driver behind the rise of vegan leather, is the growing awareness of animal welfare. This is because traditional leather is made from animal skins, which involves the killing of animals. In recent years, more and more people have become aware of the treatment of animals for the leather industry. This has made them look for responsible alternatives that do not require animals.
Vegan leather is an animal-friendly alternative because there are no animals involved. This means you can still enjoy high-quality materials without contributing to animal suffering. That's ideal, isn't it? Because let's face it, leather clothing is a trend we can never do without in fashion.
Leather pants or jacket as a must-have
This is perhaps the most famous leather clothing item we know, namely the leather jacket. Whether it's a motorcycle jacket or a bomber jacket, a vegan leather jacket adds a touch of style to any child's wardrobe and you can easily wear it over almost any outfit.
A vegan leather shorts has also been a real trend for years. In fashion, you see both shorts and long pants passing by. The shorts can also be combined with tights when it is cold. You can combine them with different tops to create various looks, from casual to chic.
Among the girls, a real must-have is the vegan leather skirt. It too can be worn with tights and tights, depending on the weather. Pair the skirt with a cute top and boots and your daughter is all set to go along to a special occasion.
Speaking of boots, of course these can also be found in vegan leather. Boots again can be combined under almost any outfit. This, then, is the biggest advantage of leather-look items, namely their versatility. You can combine it with almost any other kind of fabric or color.
