Leather biker gloves are a pleasant combination of toughness and elegance. They are certainly one of the more prominent accessories that can make or break an outfit.
Depending on how the user chooses to pull it off, gloves can be incorporated into almost any ensemble and add a touch of edge to the overall look. Aside from funky short ones, we’ve also been seeing dramatically long signature gloves on the runways. These evening gloves, also sometimes referred to as opera gloves, have been worn since at least the late 18th century.
Frequently seen in materials that range from velvet, lace or leather, long gloves add a sense of prominence and royalty to almost any outfit it touches.
