You will find that underwear worn as outerwear is also a key trend for fall 2010, so it is no surprise that the wondrous realm of leather has snapped it up. It seems that since Yves Saint Laurent sent leather corsetry pieces down the runway, leather straps and harness like bondage elements seem to be leaking into the mainstream of fashion. Along with it will follow the leather bags and belts, which we all know have always been around, however, leather leggings were a big hit on the runway for fall 2010 and I can assure you that other types of leather accessories in 2010 will become more common.

Unlike 2009 where there seemed to be a never ending array of leather colours, 2010 colours for leather will consist mainly on monochromatic and earthy tones (like teal green), and possibly expect to see a comeback for grey leather. Black as we have always known will be the safe option for any occasion, but some may like to opt for the tans and browns that are set to hit the scene.

Timeless fabrics such as leather are continuously and repeatedly revived and re-invented year after year changing traditional looks into fabulous new creations, the fall 2010 leather fashion trend is a perfect example of this. Leather is adding a sophisticated sense to fashion when managing to not only create looks for the cold Autumn and Winter season, but also creating daywear out of this difficult fabric. So if you want to make an impression in 2010 scout yourself a few statement leather pieces for your wardrobe.
