Leather skirts?

I am thinking of buying one. Been looking at Jigsaw. How is the quality?

Any other brands that you love?

I have 2 fantastic faux leather skirts - a pencil one from Vero Moda and a A line mini one from Topshop.

Used to be amazing, I still have a leather skirt from them I bought 18 years ago.

I had a massive leather skirt hunt at the start of the year. I found the Jigsaw ones came up huge and the one that fitted me was marked from the security tag. I bought the White Company one in the end and realky love it.

The faux ones can be a bit sweaty. I've got a lovely one from Jaeger, recommended.

I bought the Jigsaw wrap one, didn't like their other one this season (fussy stitching details).

I found the Jigsaw wrap skirt a much more flattering shape than others that I'd tried - Whistles x 2 leather ones, Oasis and Warehouse (fake leather ones).

I've just bought a Jaeger one, love it

TheMightyMing · 20/10/2017 19:08

Old dear what's your Jaeger one like, I'm starting to love Jaeger. I got the classic trench on Brand Alley a few weeks ago, so cheap, love it.

I have one from asos and one from all saints, both been worn to death since I got them 7 and 5 years ago respectively. The leather on the all saints one is ridiculously lovely, buttery soft but thick.

I've three Baukjen and and M and S plus a few faux numbers, I love leather skirts me :)

I have the Jigsaw wrap leather skirt, really like it, agree it's very flattering.

Olddear · 21/10/2017 20:06

It's called, iirc, the stretch leather skirt...it's a black straight skirt with two slit pockets. It was pricey at £280 Blush but I've been looking for one for ages and couldn't find one (loads of faux leather or mini) it's true to size and I'm really pleased with it. I'd like a midi 'full' leather skirt now (not sure how to describe it!! Circle skirt maybe?)

TheMightyMing · 22/10/2017 11:51

Old dear yes it's lovely that one- I've a similar one from Baukjen . I got a knee length a line skirt from m and S autograph a couple of years back, it's really nice leather.

Would a pencil leather skirt flatter a pear shape? I am 40 hips (going on 39 soon) 26-27 waist, 32c. Usually wear 8-10 tops and dresses but at least 12 in trousers.

Olddear · 22/10/2017 14:19

Pinklips yes!!! Go for it!!

hungryradish · 22/10/2017 14:26

My Topshop leather skirt is one of the best things in my wardrobe. So handy.

LockedOutOfMN · 22/10/2017 14:27

I've got 3 from last winter: one from Topshop, one from Zara and one from Mango. Wore them all winter and spring and just thinking of getting back into them now autumn's coming.
