Title: Win a handmade leather jacket - Brisbane - QLD Post by: culturebird on Thursday 29 June 2017, 11:53:38 am (http://stylemagazines.com.au/wp-content/uploads/2017/06/0617_WIN_RockyRafaela_1140x540-830x400.jpg)
Rebels without a pause: Leather jackets will never go out of style Style is an always-elusive and ever-changing concept, but overarching this perpetual conversation is the ultimate wardrobe staple: the leather jacket. Dating back to World War I, the first leather jackets were a practical way for fighter pilots to stay warm. Redesigned as motorcycle jackets a decade later when Harley-Davidson began selling them for $5.50, leather jackets soon began riding on to our movie screens. It wasn’t much of a leap from there before they became synonymous with fashion. This cultural emblem has graced the backs of heroes everywhere, from feminist rebels Amelia Earhart and Joan Jett, to bad boys such as Marlon Brando and The Ramones. Popularised in modern fashion by Balenciaga and Alexander Wang, the leather jacket has well and truly reserved its place in the sartorial hall of fame. Now, Australian designer Rochelle Gregory has reinvented the legend with a re-imagining of the leather jacket. Using cowhide by-products from farms and the meat industry, her brand Rocky Rafaela uses ethically sourced leather to create garments that are elegant, luxurious, and durable. Style Magazines and Rocky Rafaela are giving one lucky Style reader their very own Rocky Rafaela leather jacket – the staple garment every wardrobe needs. Complete your wardrobe with buttery-soft and supple leather, structured tailoring, and luxe silver hardware. More than just a beautiful vestment, wearing a Rocky Rafaela jacket means taking part in the rich history and tradition of the leather jacket. Is your wardrobe lacking?
