Look of the week: Kim Kardashian West is bringing back the halter top + leather pants combination
We’ve waxed eloquent about fashion’s undying love for bringing back styles that defined a decade several times over the years. And while the ‘70s remain a constant source for inspiration, the ‘80s are a favourite on the runway right now, with the It-girl set rallying for the return of the noughties. It’s always a bit tricky to go back to yesteryear fashion that you may have lived through. Has enough time passed for the uncool to be deemed cool again? Well, Kim Kardashian West is wasting no time in bringing back the going-out classics and demonstrating the many versatile ways in which to style a pair of leather trousers.
For The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, West paired her Hemut Lang trousers with a chain mail halter top by Church Boutique and a pair of strappy Yezzy heels. Adding to her noughties wardrobe was a beauty look that was equally reminiscent of the decade—skinny brows, nude lips minus the extra pale under eye concealer and a top knot. West and Winnie Harlow were spotted backstage trying out products from the KKW x WINNIE collab.
Just a day earlier, the reality star and beauty mogul was spotted in another pair of leather pants and an asymmetrical silver chainmail top as she sat front row for Serena Williams’s show at New York Fashion Week.
A day after her appearance in the The Tonight Show Starring Jimmy Fallon, West stepped out in a third pair of leather pants. The theme this time was croc, and both the in-cut leather top and trousers featured the same exotic texture. West made the look more contemporary by opting for super straight open hair and a pair of oversized sunglasses.
