Fashion comes and goes, but guess what – The leather vest is here to stay!
Is that just me, but there’s something timeless about the leather vest that just hits differently?
While most people gravitate toward the classic biker jacket during fall and winter, faux leather vests have their fans too – but they definitely don’t have the same street cred.
Good news?
When you rock a leather vest, you instantly elevate your style game because it’s not “mainstream” on the street and you effortlessly stand out in the crowd!
I’ve rounded up 20 fabulous ways to style your leather vest.
Get ready to take notes and get inspired!
1. Leather vest look with a beret
First things first: the leather vest is way more versatile than you might think.
Want to tone down the edginess?

Pair it with a chic beret for that effortlessly cool vibe.

Need I say more?
This look is absolute perfection, especially when paired with the Balenciaga studded crinkled leather shoulder bag— total obsession!
2. Go hip, go fierce
If you love flaunting your leather vest, you probably want to showcase that stylish, free spirit within you.
To crank up the cool factor, team it with a bold red tee.

You just look without trying too hard.

3. Black vest with tie and sunnies
Ever thought of this combo? Well, now you know!

A loose tie, a biker vest, and hot pants just scream, “I’m hot, and I own it!”
I don’t know about you, but I’m definitely taking this look for my next Friday night out.
4. Black vest and white shirt
For a fail-proof option, team your leather vest with a classic white shirt.

For the fact that a white shirt is literally the best canvas to showcase the vest.
5. Black vest with a mix of cuteness
Want to amp it up? Opt for a Peter Pan collar shirt—it adds an adorable touch!

This combo just adds an extra dash of cuteness to an otherwise edgy look.
And guess what?
A big collar can visually slim your face.
As a girl with a round face, I can say that this style is one of my absolute favorites.
6. A classic sleek look
Looking for a hot yet sophisticated look?

Layer a form-fitting black vest over a cozy white knit top for a unique silhouette.
If it feels like something’s missing, throw on some silver chains for that extra sparkle!
7. Black leather vest and leopard skirt
When it comes to prints that pair beautifully with a black vest, leopard is where it’s at!

In a world full of little black dresses (LBDs), dare to be the fierce mob wife.
Yes girl.
7. Black leather vest & print dress
Want to look feminine without feeling overly girly?
Team a romantic floral dress with your cool vest.

For a flattering fit, go for a cropped vest to elongate your silhouette.
Together with a black belt to define the waist, you’ll look effortlessly stylish!
A pro tip when rocking a printed dress: always pair your top or jacket with a bag in the same shade.

This keeps your look cohesive and avoids the chaotic vibe of mismatched patterns.
As a 5’3″ gal, I love asymmetrical dresses!

The inverted V shape draws the eye upward, making your legs appear longer—even in flats.
Try it out, and you’ll be amazed at the results!
8. Monotone magic
Are you the ‘Black is my happy color’ type of girl?
If so, get inspired by this all-black look down below.

A linen dress and leather vest just add a nice contrast in texture and keep you from looking too matchy-matchy in the same shade.
It’s all about details, sis.

And let’s not forget the statement western belt can be a perfect accessory —it completes the whole look.
Think a solid black bodycon is too plain?

Add your leather vest, and you’re ready to turn heads! You’ll be hot in the most exquisite way.
Thanks me later, sis.
9. Leather vest with jeans
To dress down your black vest, jeans are always a solid choice, especially in lighter shades.

Don’t forget to accessorize!

I’m loving the hoop earrings and shoulder bag in this look – they add the perfect finishing touch!
10. Tube top & leather vest
To showcase the waist, I’d say rock that tube top and vest to embrace the biker girl vibes to the fullest.

Those sequin fringe shorts are to die for.

The oversized leather vest is equally flattering.
11. The F1 girl look
A biker vest with a checkered sweater? This look is giving an F1 race car girl vibe 😍


And really, you can wear whatever you want with this cool vest.
