“Jackets for men are different from coats for women!” Of course they are men and women are different. Figures, body types, color preferences and needs differ diametrically. Initially there was hardly any difference in the way coats were designed either for men or for women. The truth is traditionally leather jackets for men were what women would sport as well.
It is much later that designers realized ladies had different figures and the coats meant for men did not really accentuate a woman’s image or style. Over the years there have been revolutionary changes in the leather wear industry. Women fashion its are breaking trends. Leather today comes in every conceivable color and different softness levels.
Designers have created special collections for summer! A few years ago who would have thought you can wear animal hide stuff in the blazing heat. But then modern tanning processes and contemporary leather wear have redefined everything. Ladies these days sport exciting designs from leather spring collections, that interesting come in pastels and light colors. There was a time when leather was synonymous with black, brown and maroon!
