Time was when if you had an item of leather clothing, you kept it stored in a plastic dry-cleaning bag and wore it once in a blue moon. But over the last few months, leather has become more everyday – a slicker denim, if you will. And, just like denim, you can persuade it into different trends: a leather dress is minimal, shorts are rock'n'roll. You'll still be dry-cleaning, though.
