Leather’s making a new name for itself on the red carpet as of late. Celebs are showing up for events decked out in the chic fabric, but only partially … because they’re wearing leather paneled tops!At the premiere of The Inevitable Defeat of Mister and Pete at the Sundance Film Festival, Alicia Keys and Jennifer Hudson both showed up in different takes on the same trend. Alicia’s grey sweatshirt featured a large black leather panel down the front, which she teamed with dark blue skinnies and black leather boots. Jennifer added oxblood skinnies (the color is definitely having a major moment on the red carpet right now), studded black boots and a long side braid.
Who do you think wore the trend better?

Ashley celebrated the grand opening of Andrea’s restaurant out in Las Vegas last week alongside several other celebs. She wore a Bardot leatherette sleeveless peplum top and the brand’s Gaga shorts. Naturally, the vegan actress opted for faux leather as opposed to the real thing, but it’s not the synthetic composition that’s the issue. Ashley’s pairing of the peplum-accented top with those slim shorts resulted in a slightly awkward silhouette. Her rather underwhelming accessories, including a black clutch and pumps, didn’t really elevate the ensemble.
