This Is the Winter Trend Practically Every Celebrity Is Obsessed With
This is going to be difficult, but I will refrain from making any Matrix comparisons in this story (oops, does that count?). Celebrities are fully embracing a dramatic, kind of uncomfortable trend this winter, and what it lacks in comfort it makes up for in coolness. Leather clothing—real or faux—has become a favorite trend this season of everyone from Rihanna to Taylor Swift to Kylie Jenner. And I'm not talking about just a basic leather jacket—I'm talking about significant pieces of clothing such as a trench coat or a dress.
A few things that I've noticed about the dressed-up trend is that black is the leather color of choice, and it's usually worn after dark. If you, too, want to make leather clothing part of your wardrobe this winter, scroll on to see how stylish celebrities are styling the trend, and shop leather pieces both genuine and faux.

I own this skirt in brown and it's divine.
