Contrast dressing teaches that juxtaposing different textures makes for a great look; leather trousers are a handy tool for this kind of styling. Their “hard” texture goes well with “soft” items, like fuzzy jumpers and cardigans. A striped black and white jumper and loafers make for a classic yet visually interesting outfit.
