It seems that the leather motorcycle jacket is one of those sacred staple sartorial treasures that will never go out of style (see also: the tuxedo jacket, and the high-waisted trouser), with an enduring quality that reads as classic, essential and never stale. Since the time of Marlon Brando a la The Wild One (swoon), designers have found a way to re-imagine the moto jacket each season (whether it be through silhouette, material, cut, color, occasion, or all of the above) and present it anew, making it ever the more covetable (last Fall there was a metallic emerald cropped motorcycle jacket from Rebecca Minkoff that I just lost it for). This Spring we're seeing moto styles in unexpected hues like crisp white and lush blush and oversized motorcycle vests are once again, on the hit list for the season.
Sure, this chopper topper has its hiatuses, but it's always there; always comes back to the runways; always shows up on some stylish lady who's owning it in the streets; always hanging in your closet resolutely, ready to be worn and make even the least bad-assy of girls (me) feel like Marlon Brando.
