Yes you read it right...a leather harness. Surprise, 'Fifty Shades of Grey' has moved onto our Spring Fashion catwalks...for now. There were quite a lot of harnesses and colourful leather-heavy looks for spring this year.
But I have to say the binding leather look is quite classy if teamed up with a sophisticated outfit of course. Some leather harnesses look chic and trendy, for example have a look at the 3 images below they look trendy and elegant. (I would have never thought that I would have used 'elegant' and 'harness' together in a sentence)
The important thing to remember is to treat this piece as an accessory. Make it blend into your outfit and match it with what your wearing. As from the examples below all of the harnesses are 'blended' into the outfit but not made the center piece, that is the key into nailing this look.
I don't think we will see people popping down to the shops in a leather harness any time soon but try it with lady like silhouettes and it might be a winner this spring.
