Thanks to @SixOhNine, I just learned that this dress is actually a one off Balmain design made of leather.

Edited to add: Zendaya is distractingly stunning. I can't take my eyes off that picture.

The dress is made of leather. Which is cool.

If I met her in the street I would blush and sheepishly say "hi" like an intimidated middle school kid.

Ahh damm I missed that part... totally belongs here

This thread hasn't been about the topic for quite some time anyway as it has been mostly about post whatever leather jacket you can buy. I don't mind seeing that leather dress here either way.

Anyway, Incarnation FW21-22 shearling.

I fully agree with you that the pattern is the most important thing. Construction/material a close second for me.
Quite.

If something has a bad pattern, no expense in materials, construction, etc can save it.

This is their annual sale. Great stuff, except the stock jacket I had an eye on sold!

No to say this isn't true but I think the venn diagram of people who want to look like David Beckham and people who hang out here has very little overlap.

Really? You think the hundreds of thousands of views this thread has gotten over the years vs. the handful of actual posters and repeat posters (literally under 100) supports your venn diagram?

It'd be interesting to find out for sure.

I really think that the "I like what this celebrity is wearing, lets find out more" stage of fashion interest comes much earlier than the "I'm gonna have a tab open on Style Forum more than half the time that my computer is open" stage of fashion interest, and if they're anything like me most people who are at the later stage don't pay that much attention to how celebrity dresses anymore.

Maybe I'm wrong. I don't know. Anyhow it's not a diss on celebrity styling and the people who are interested in that. It's the observation that they become increasingly less relevant the longer you've been interested in men's style.

I’ve been here a decade and a half and haven’t really seen ‘I want to dress like Beckham’ stuff.

The other thing to bear in mind is that you’re projecting your expertise onto normal clueless people who probably see nothing there other than “brown leather jacket”.
