We don’t know about you, but we’re going to find a way to incorporate leather into virtually every outfit we wear this fall.

There’s something about the tried-and-true fabric that oozes excellence. It’s a material that effortlessly commands attention, while adding some extra edge to any outfit. But if you don’t want to take our word for it, then allow these famous faces to convince you that leather is not to be slept on in any way, shape or form this season.

Why leather is dominating Hollywood

Celebrities love to make a statement, and a surefire way to do so is to dress to the nines in this fine material. That way, before they even step out of the car, they know those cameras will be flashing to capture their head-turning outfit.

Whether you’re trying to live out your dreams of fame or just want to look so darn good that you’ll be the topic of everyone’s conversations, leather is the common denominator. Here’s some inspiration for your next look!

Hailey Bieber and Anastasia Karanikolaou twin

You know an outfit is poppin’ when you see it worn on two different stars. Not only does twinning highlight the popularity of a particular garment, but it also showcases the state of the fashion world. And right now, it seems like black leather is still going strong.

For her 29th birthday, Bieber looked as edgy as ever in this black leather top. The fringes decorating her sleeves were everything, providing her with tons of movement and making for a nice silhouette. The criss-cross backside was also utterly alluring and eye-catching. A 10 out of 10 top for sure.

While Bieber’s tiered birthday cake was rocking satin bows, Bieber herself was rocking those leather fringes—but she wasn’t the only one to do so this week.

In addition to being a great garment for a birthday celebration, Karanikolaou showed why this top is also suitable for a night out at the racetrack. The celebrity debuted her version of this head-turning number at the Las Vegas Grand Prix this past weekend, pairing it with medium-wash jeans that completed her ensemble.

Law Roach reminds us of a dynamic duo

Did we get transported back to the ‘90s? Because Monica looks just as cool as ever! Needless to say, the same goes for Brandy, especially when she sported this glamorous leather suit in a deep wine shade while on tour.

Monica and Brandy are giving ‘90s babies everything they’ve wanted with this reunion tour. Even so, this dynamic “The Boy is Mine” duo isn’t the only duo we're living for.

If it doesn’t have Roach’s stamp of approval, is it even fashionable? Safe to say, whatever this renowned Image Architect sports is bound to make waves in the industry.

Case in point, his incredible blending of ashen black leather and multicolored fur. At first glance, it’s unconventional. But on Roach, it seemed like these fabrics and colors were made for each other.

Ciara levels up with leather

Ciara is teaching a masterclass on why a hat doesn’t have to be the only way to keep warm this fall.

In one of her most recent posts, Ciara donned a fuzzy, animal-ear-shaped hat and finished the look with a black leather jacket. This ensemble worked because it took two statement pieces that complemented each other rather than clashed. Both pieces were allowed to take the spotlight, meaning there was no need to sacrifice either for warmth or style.

Beyoncé’s racetrack-ready regalia

The party doesn’t really start until Beyoncé walks in, and her leather-covered aura at the F1 Las Vegas Grand Prix was absolutely breathtaking.

Need some lessons on how to make everyone do a double-take when they scroll through your Instagram account? Look no further than Queen Bey, since that’s what over 1 million people (and counting) did when they saw these images of Beyoncé looking stunning in a red, white and black leather racetrack ensemble. It wouldn’t have surprised us if all the cars safely came to a complete stop to marvel at this beauty.

Don’t be leather-less this fall—after all, your faves look captivating in their ensembles, and you should, too!
