Skirts have always been part of women's lives around the world. Long, medium or short, the leather skirt fits the bill.
The leather skirt is a real must-have piece in women's wardrobes. Contrary to what many people think, leather is a very versatile product and can be used in the most diverse compositions. In addition to different lengths, models and colors, which can further enhance the composition of the set.
If combined with heels, a handbag and long-sleeved shirts, they make the perfect outfit for a work meeting, for example, as they are elegant but not too formal. Now, if the social event is a less formal dinner, a cocktail, even a movie, the leather skirt (with or without slits) combined with smocks, looser shirts and maxi vests look wonderful.

2 – Leather mini skirt
For winter and summer, ideal for irreverent women who like to be daring in life. It's important to remember that, for a perfect look, wear pieces that ‘break' the texture of the leather, such as tops, satin or lace shirts and dresses.

5 – Pencil leather skirt
Back in the 1940s, right after the end of the Second World War, fabric rationing was huge – to give you an idea, the poorest families (very poor at that time) used bags of rice to make clothes, especially for children.
Women quickly incorporated the pencil skirt model, because of its shape the combination possibilities are almost endless, not to mention its versatility. In Brazil, the pencil skirt arrived in the 1960s and has never gone out of fashion since.
Just from this story you can understand why the pencil skirt is associated with powerful and modern women. This model is sensual, elegant and discreet. In cold or hot weather, you are always very welcome.
6 – Country leather skirt
The fringes refer to the country/folk style and are loved by younger women. The leather skirt with fringe worn with high or ankle boots and a t-shirt creates a beautiful look!
And it can be in whatever model you want, mini, midi, long, A-line, pencil, pleated… Oh, they are also super popular for more sophisticated environments, especially at night.
7 – Eco-leather skirt
To look beautiful you don't need to go around supporting the killing of animals. Let's be more love! Well, according to law 4,888/65, of Brazilian legislation, only products made with animal skin can be called “leather”, but we do not necessarily need to use “real leather”.
In addition to being much more expensive. Eco-leather or ecological fabric is very welcome, beautiful and replaces “real leather” in a way that no one will even notice.
And, if you notice it, even better, because it means that you are a person who cares about the environment and is in favor of sustainability (which is also on the rise!)
8 – Colorful leather skirt
You don't need to be stuck in the black or brown leather skirt. Lighter colors such as baby pink, beige, turquoise blue, shades of green, mustard, gray, yellow, red and pink are ideal for composing everyday looks and less sophisticated events.
Now, if you want to wear it to an evening event, feel free, a good combination could be satin or silk shirts.
