There are certain items of clothing that elicit a raw emotional response. Like skinny jeans, peplums, the surprisingly still trending no pants look and, in the same risqué category, bra-exposing sheer layers. Leather pants are also on the list, especially the clinging kind. We've come a long way, however, as these days this type of pant comes in more than just one form as demonstrated by the street style set. They're also great references regarding how to style black leather pants. (See above where a basic black hoodie is teamed with a sleeveless trench coat and textured black leather pants.)
Some still favor the skinny takes and balance out their looks by topping them off with chic pieces that draw eyes upward. Baggy alternatives are seeing a big surge. Probably because baggy jeans are also in heavy rotation. Other updated spins include side-laced pairs and borderline bell-bottoms. High-shine interpretations are even being embraced.
