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!



An eBay seller lists some great vintage leather outfits!

eBay seller "newlookvintage" recently listed several vintage 1980s leather items and did very well in fetching some nice prices for some unusual leather pieces.  Let's start with the jumpsuits!

My favorite piece was this sleek leather catsuit in a beautiful navy color, which sold for a deserving $285.00. I especially like the high collar, combination of buttons and zippers, and the belt and pocket detail around the waist.  No tags, so I wonder if it was custom made, and the measurements appeared to fit a size medium.  This piece has just the right mix of military and high-tech styling.  Without a doubt, one of the nicest leather jumpsuits I've seen on eBay!






This ivory leather jumpsuit sold for an impressive $256.08.  I especially like it worn open with the collar turned up.  For being vintage ivory leather, it shows no discoloration and looks absolutely pristine!  Sizing on this appears to be somewhere between a small and medium.  If you wanted to try to pull off leather in the summer, this would be a great look!
