The leather jacket is one of the most enduring investment pieces to own. But during a heatwave, heavy-duty outerwear isn’t an item that springs to mind. However, Hailey Bieber has found a way to make the motorcycle jacket appropriate for summer.
While out running errands in Los Angeles, the 25-year-old Rhode founder served pared-back summer style in the coolest of ways. A navel-baring heather-grey top, rolled-up boxer shorts, a black oversized leather jacket from Balenciaga, grey New Balance trainers, and white socks completed the look. Hailey accessorized with gold hoop earrings, black micro shades, and a beige baseball cap featuring a green bill.
Despite not being the first item we reach for when the mercury rises, the leather jacket can elevate a summery look as the sun starts to set. Wear an oversized version with lightweight co-ords, like Hailey Bieber, to nail a balanced outfit.
