eBay seller "newlookvintage" recently listed several vintage 1980s
leather items and did very well in fetching some nice prices for some
unusual leather pieces. This post will focus on power leather skirt suits!
This goregous Jean Claude Jitrois yellow leather suit sold for a very well-deserving $305.00! This stunning suit was marked a size 40 and measured around a medium. I especially like the oversized collar, although I wish the seller would have pictured it with the collar turned up. The waist belt detail is very stylish too, almost like a corset with the way it fastens in the back. This would look great paired with a wide brimmed black hat, black pumps, a black clutch purse and some stylish black leather gauntlet gloves.
This vintage Erez red hot leather suit was practically a deal at $112.73! This size S/M suit features some very new wave styling and like the yellow suit above, would look great paired with black accessories.
Someone got a deal on this bright green North Beach Leather suit in a size 7/8 for only $86.23. Although not my favorite style, this should be very well-made of buttery soft leather given that it's from North Beach Leather. The huge peplum just screams vintage 1980s!
Finally, this vintage Issey Miyake brown (taupe?) leather bomber-style suit in a medium size sold for an impressive $294.99. Although the jacket is a little too boxy for me, I really like the style of the skirt with its high-waist detailing. In fact, had the skirt been my size and in black, I would have put in a good bid. This would look great paired with some black or dark brown riding-style boots.
