WHY ?
In search for a red leather jacket....
I first decided I wanted a red leather jacket when i watched The White Stripes "Dead Leaves in the Dirty Ground" a few years back. I loved this look worn by Meg White....

I  own a version of this red leather jacket from the thriller video,which i had sourced vintage for a costume job! But its a hard style to pull off...
Red has long been used as a costuming device in movies, one of my favorite examples is "Don't Look Now" ,a 1973 independent British-Italian film directed by Nicolas Roeg,scariest film ever!

I also like the use of red leather in "Fight Club " directed by David Fincher and costumed by the amazing Michael Kaplan

This jacket by Balmain from Spring 2011  is pretty awesome...

This quilted shoulder Red Balenciaga Jacket worn by Kristen Stewart in Marie Claire’s September 2012 Issue is perfect , but quilted shoulders tend to make you look bigger!!
The Marc Jacobs one I considered...
