Styling Guidance
Black leather and suede gloves are a dependable winter staple, and the mix of textures stops them from looking flat. Wear them with a black or charcoal wool coat for a clean, tonal look, or let them add sharp contrast against camel, grey or cream outerwear. They also go well with leather jackets and black ankle boots for something more casual. Black works equally well with silver or gold jewellery, so you don't need to change your accessories to suit them.
- Works well with: wool and longline coats, leather jackets, puffer and quilted coats, black boots
- Colour palette: camel, grey, cream, burgundy, black
