Style While the selection of colour, style and material used for glove wear has increased dramatically in recent years, the classic black leather glove remains a true classic. While it may still scream Rock and Roll, it adds an crafty edge to any outfit. Just think of Halle Berry in Catwoman. Her attire was made complete with her fitted three-quarter high black patent leather gloves. Can we say, SEXY?!? Interesting enough, after the release of this movie, the demand for these sleek and sexy black gloves hit record sales. Perhaps a BDSM fetish frenzy was inadvertently unleashed, where even tame novices looked to explore the magical feel and touch of latex or leather on the skin. Juicy Couture and Louis Vuitton opted for a more delicate touch in their versions of black leather gloves which now boast bracelets in place of the traditional clasp or snap. Carolina Amato’s collection even offers a colour for every mood. For colder climes, there are knit gloves with leather palms or wool-lined versions to keep hands safely on the wheel while helping them stay warm.
