What’s up Stud?
Perhaps one of the most timeless elements with regards to leather jacket decoration is the use of studs.
After evolving over the years in design, shape and size, a large variety is available much to the liking of many across the globe.
Whether you use cone shaped studs or spherical ones, flat rounded ones or a mix of both.
Studs have a tendency to add some edge to whatever jacket design you may have.
While on the subject of studs, spikes too are used with equal enthusiasm as both are believed to serve similar purposes and give a striking, hip and edgy appearance to the wearer.
Style to Dye for
Using dyeing techniques as decorative elements for leather jackets, go as far back as one can imagine.
This too has undergone an evolution of its own and today offers some of the best and most unique dyeing processes that take leather jackets to a much higher level.
Whether you go for a subtle, minimalist approach with dual-tone dyes or multiple tones that make up a cool and creative abstract art approach.
Patterns that are formed by this element transforms any leather jacket in a positive way.
Stripes tell your Story
Adding stripes to your jacket is a great way to add interest to the style and design.
With several options to choose from, you can try vertical stripes running downwards or vertical stripes moving across your front or back, in any style or area you choose.
Diagonal stripes are another option that creates a subtle illusion for people who are on the plump side.
The thinness or thickness of the stripes can be any, from pinstripes to bold thick stripes that can be further enhanced through contrasting colors for an eye-catching look or monotones that give a more subtle style to your jacket.
All in all stripes are great in making you appear slim or tall or even broad or narrow, depending on what you are going for.
Cut and Strut
Incorporating surprise elements within your leather jacket could be the best move you ever make as far as quality outerwear goes.
With that being said, imagine a leather jacket that can be worn as is as well as a vest or perhaps even a jacket with short sleeves.
Enabling dual or multiple looks, using the same piece is what many people crave for the most, which redefines the phrase of value for money.
As mentioned before, The Jacket Maker is always thrilled to work with customers who love exploring different ideas, know exactly what they want, and appreciate the assistance and results which are always well received.
