Leather Ideal for all year round

As the weather turns warmer here in London, I am wearing my favourite leather jackets which is so versatile even during this unpredictable season of rain and showers. Although I don't work in leather but I make a point to visit  LE CUIR A PARIS trade fair each season (because I'm in Paris for Premiere Vision Pluriel anyway) to pick up the latest trends for leather used for all purposes, and because like most women, I love shoes and bags. At Le Cuir I find inspiration for fashion generally.  Leathers on show at the fair include all finished and partially tanned skins, special and exotic skins, furs, raw hides, as well as substitution materials, natural and artificial fabrics for the leather goods industry.  Below you'll find a mini slide show of some the latest leather on offer by producers around the world for Autumn Winter 2010/2011.  I have selected samples of interesting surface details and textures to show the variety and developments that have given leather that added edge, and hope they inspire you to look at leather as a fashion material.  Pictures are provided by organisers at Le Cuir.  I have submitted a write-up on the fair as part of my Premiere Vision Pluriel report for the Textile Asia magazine in their April edition.  Will keep you posted when that comes out.
