Latex Pants (And Pants That Just Look Like Latex)

July 30, 2007 by WendyB


Balenciaga’s ultra-expensive gold leggings seemed like a runway stunt, but shiny legs have crossed over into real-life wardrobes. It seemed to start with Kate Moss and Victoria Beckham. Or was it really American Apparel‘s gold leggings (see above)? Not everyone approves, but it’s now catching on in a big way despite the summer heat:
So FASH’on
So FASH’on again
Style Bytes
Stockholm Streetstyle
Style Bubble
Style Bubble again
F&Art
Bucuresti Looks
FASHIONFILLERS: Black latex leggings
Queen of the Posh and Broke
The Fashionable Kiffen
Kingdom of Style
Not everyone’s a fan and some just aren’t sure but I say, why not? If American Apparel isn’t your thing, try Patricia Field. If you’re looking for something that’s not quite so skin-tight, try Allure Leather. Or you can be like me and get a pair of boots instead. So practical for rainy days, right?

    Love the leggings! Now I’m just trying to figure out how to pull them off in Ohio…

    It will have to be with great self-confidence, I’d imagine 🙂 Though if you wait till the cooler weather, they’ll be much easier to carry off, I think. They won’t be as provocative then as they are in August!

    Well, I need the confidence wearing them here in Romania too!

    I was so tempted to buy a pair of “kylie” gold hotpants that were on sale in Topshop the other day…
    I resisted, somehow i didn’t think they’d suit me..
    They only suit Agathe because she is just so effortless!
