You have to like the great modeling on these leather dresses. The attractive young blonde really adds to these auction listings.
This vintage size M North Beach Leather dress with removable straps sold for $174.50. In addition to the great modeling, kudos to the seller for including a photo of the dress originally modeled by Cindy Crawford.
For a totally different look, this size 7/8 Dali Melame Paris white leather dress sold for only $72.08. Love the elevator backdrop the seller used in these photos.
Catsuits and long gloves, thigh boots and trenchcoats...these are a few of my favorite things!

Classic Leatherwear vintage opera gloves
What Wild Pair is to vintage leather thigh-high boots, Classic Leatherwear is to vintage leather opera gloves.
At 27.5" long, they're some of the longest and roomiest vintage gloves I've ever come across. Interesting, as the seller listed them as either ladies' or mens' leather opera gloves.
These gloves rarely appear on eBay and when they do, almost always fetch a "collector's" price. Even worn, these size XL gloves sold for an impressive $150.99.
North Beach Leather military style dress
Beautiful brown stacked heel boots
For $26.00, someone got an exceptional deal on these beautiful brown vintage over-the-knee boots. Although I'm normally not a fan of wooden heels, I think the narrow stacked high heels really add to the vintage, timeless look of these boots. Had they been my size and not a 7.5, I definitely would have bid on these, which would look great worn over a pair of skinny jeans.
Vintage Town & Country OTK boots
Someone got a pair of very nice, vintage size 7.5 boots by Town & Country for $76.00, especially considering they've never been worn.
They're identical in make and style to the famous Wild Pair crotch-high boots, only several inches shorter. Cuffed, they're knee-high boots, and uncuffed, they become this season's very trendy over-the-knee boots.
Very sexy and timeless boots!

Vintage boot modeling and selling
More great boot modeling, but too bad the seller didn't post bigger pictures.
These never-worn, size 7 black leather thigh boots sold for an impressive $96.00. They look great paired with a black leather jacket and blue jeans.
These similar boots in a size 8.5 sold for only $75.00. Great spiky heels!
The same seller sold these rare vintage 1990s boots for an impressive $116.50. These size 8 boots were made in Spain. The seller said they're "made of the softest leather you can imagine" and as a previous owner of vintage boots from Spain, I can vouch for the softness of the leather.
Maybe it was the unusual golden tan color, but these vintage size 7.5 tan leather boots by Jasmin sold for an impressive $81.00.
These vintage size 7 red leather OTK boots by Poppies sold for only $34.00.
Finally, I was very surprised that these vintage Wild Pair ankle boots with stiletto heels sold for only $10.50, especially with booties/shooties such a popular style of boot these days.
