Trend Alert : Get Leathered!


Fashion for the fierce, sexy and Dominant woman. Are you high on the Gothic Glamour trend? No better way to create it than to leather up. Gucci, Fendi, Givenchy are among many to grace the runway with high fashion Leather looks.

We at Fabstar absolutely heart this look. It's fierce, it's sexy, it draws your inner strength out to the surface, now who wouldn't love it.

Like many years ago, Leather is visibly back this year and will be even bigger in 2013. Move it high up your shopping list, it seems to have come to stay for a long while.

As always, our famous folks, have been gracing the red carpet and the streets with this statement look; as featured on Jennifer Aniston, Kelly Rowland, Beyonce, Rihanna, Chistina Hendricks, Gywneth Paltrow, Tamara Ecclestone among many others.




Convinced about getting leathered? Do you know certain fabrics you wear affect your mood and confidence? Leather is a confidence booster if worn right.

Do you own one that makes you feel uncomfortable and doesn't allow your skin to breathe?  It's about getting one in the right size and quality, the softer the fabric, the better the quality.

Be careful not to end up looking like a stuffed rubber tyre in trying to get leathered. It's not very kind to certain silhouettes although we all can jump on the leather trend bandwagon by choosing styles with some leather panels, as featured on this Zara dresses below.

Whether it's a dress, top, pants, skirt, jacket or accessories, ensure you get leathered up and ready for 2013.
