Kenneth Cole features long leather gauntlet gloves in Fall 2013 show

The Kenneth Cole collection during Fashion Week 2013 looks very promising as far as leather is concerned.  Although there appears to be lots of leather in his collection, my favorite is the long leather gloves that appear to be gauntlet style.

From the Washington Post:

Bet those models are hoping to take home the shearling coats, quilted puffer jackets, elbow-length gloves and hearty boots they wore on the runway of the Kenneth Cole Productions show Thursday night, considering the weather forecast for the next few days.

Layers were piled on thick: The opening look was a women's mixed-media tweed jacket with two types of vests, wool felt pants, a leather neckerchief and super-long gloves. That was followed by a wool-felt jumper, metallic-collar shirt, mirrored choker and soft pleated pants.

Bottega Veneta black leather opera gloves

They're way out of my budget, and I'm not sure how practical they are, but I sure like the wide cuffs on these Bottega Veneta black leather opera gloves. They look great scrunched, but I'd be curious to see how they look worn full-length.

My Favorite Pages - ELLE - September 2012

Great Gucci ad featuring some very nice tall black leather boots!



There's lots of leather to like on this page! It also shows how much of a trend black leather will be this fall fashion season.




And if black leather is too tough a look, both jackets and pants come in a range of beautiful colors.



These leather pants appear to have been styled after your favorite sweatpants...and just as comfortable!



The detail work on this Ralph Lauren leather jacket is stunning. And to me, "price on request" means it's going to be unaffordable for most people.



Leather tops, like this one from Banana Republic, appear to be a prominent trend this season, along with leather dresses.



The black leather trench coat and tall black leather boots are one of my absolute favorite fall / winter looks. The only thing missing is matching gloves!



The wide black leather belt and shiny gauntlet gloves make this outfit a little too "superhero" for me, but I do like the style of the gauntlet gloves.



Like the Gucci ad at the beginning of this post, this leather purse is almost upstaged by sexy long black leather gloves, leather pants, and tall boots!
