Gianvito Rossi Italian black leather OTK riding-style boots

These Gianvito Rossi made in Italy black leather OTK riding-style boots sold for their impressive starting bid of $489.  These size 39 boots were appealing to me because of their matte finish, walkable heels, and ankle strap which gives them an edgy "biker" look.

These would look great paired with skinny jeans and a blazer or black leather jacket.

A very sexy vintage black leather biker jacket from Express

This Express biker-style black leather jacket, which appears to be vintage, sold for a respectable $39.99.  The jacket was listed as a size M/L and the seller said it was only worn once.

The details in this jacket are amazing - the asymmetrical zipper pull, which is very popular right now, really sets the tone for the style of this jacket.  Then there's the rare zipper placement on the chest and shoulder.  The lower back is accented with two more zippers and six metal Express tags.  Finally, the epaulets are decorated with triangular metal studs.  I might also add that it looks great zipped up and unzipped and creates two very different looks, especially with the collar turned up.

I might have bid on this sexy jacket if I'd been more sure about the size.  I could definitely see wearing it with skinny jeans and boots on date nights!

A nicely modeled red leather biker-style dress sells well

eBay seller "leatherbill" sold this red-hot vintage leather biker dress for a deserving $174.  Very nicely modeled, this dress was a size small and the seller indicated it was a "North Beach style" with "zippers everywhere."

Worn slightly unzipped is a very provocative look while the fully zipped look is more sophisticated.

One of the nicest leather dresses I've seen in quite awhile!

PERFECT PAIRINGS: black leather driving gloves, knee-high black leather boots, black or red pumps

 

A very nicely modeled North Beach Leather jacket

Canadian leather seller "leatherbill" sold this nicely modeled vintage North Beach Leather jacket for it's starting bid of $99.  I especially like the styling on this moss green leather jacket, complete with padded shoulders, dolman sleeves, and fitted waist.  It looks great paired with the tight (NBL?) black leather skirt!

And kudos to a seller who always has attractive models displaying his items!

More great vintage leather pant suits

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 leather pant suits!

This racer style black leather suit by Nigel Wearing sold for $127.50.  Although I'm not a fan of the bronze detailing, I really like the belted, elasticized waist and high collar. This size medium outfit is just the right blend of biker chic combined with sleek high-tech lines.

Although I've never been a fan of silver leather, this nice Lillie Rubin pant suit sold for a nice round $100.00.  For as much as the suit itself looks like cruise wear, I really like the style of the jacket, especially the double-breasted styling, padded shoulders and the high collar.  I also like the high-waist styling of the pants.  I'd definitely snap up this piece if it became available in black leather!

A real deal on a North Beach Leather biker-style black leather dress

Even in a size small, someone got a real deal on this rare biker-style North Beach Leather dress for only $71.  What makes this dress rare is the unusually large zippers, which are hardly ever seen on a dress this style.  And the modeling is outstanding!

So it's interesting that this same exact dress, unmodeled, even in a size Extra Small, sold for an impressive $182.50, likely because "North Beach Leather" was in the title.

Sexy North Beach Leather biker style dress in eggplant purple

I was a little surprised that this vintage North Beach Leather dress, even in a size XS, only sold for its starting price of $140.00.  The sexy biker-style of this eggplant purple-colored dress has always been one of my favorites, and it rarely appears on eBay.

Vintage North Beach Leather dress sells for $605!

This vintage 1980s teal North Beach Leather motorcycle-style dress sold for an amazing $605!  Even more impressive, it fetched this price for a size small dress.

 

This has always been one of my favorite NBL dress styles, but I'd have to have it in basic black.

Biker-style black leather designer dress

eBay high-end leather seller "leatherfashions" sold this biker-style designer black leather dress by A.B.S. for Allen Schwartz for a respectable $187.50.  Had this medium size dress been a large or extra large, I would have placed a decent bid as this is a style I've wanted in my collection for years!

North Beach Leather biker-style dress, nicely modeled

This nicely modeled, vintage 1980s North Beach Leather biker style dress, even in a size XS, sold for its starting bid of $289.99.  It also appears to be in pristine, like new condition.

As I've always wanted this style of NBL dress, if it ever appears in my size, I would put in a considerable bid!  This would look stunning paired with a little black beret, tight black leather driving gloves, and black leather pumps.

This seller does a great job of modeling leather, as in this black leather blazer from another auction.
