Leather Tees
One of the most intriguing things about the spring collections was the use of unexpected fabrics to reinvent the simplest pieces like Phillip Lim's riff on a classic button down shirt (left) and one of the season's most coveted items -the black leather t-shirt (right)- designed by Phoebe Philo at Celine. Celine was a standout all around for a sophisticated collection of clean-lined sportswear -something that has been in short supply during the 'aughties' preference for frill, froth and stripper wear. 

I predict that there will be less expensive versions to come at the fast fashion level which is good news for our wardrobe budgets. The look comes off best when the leather is lightweight enough to tuck into a waistband with a smooth result like the skirt pictured below. Boxier cuts worn untucked - like shirt jackets- should be paired with slim, straight-cut bottoms.
