The black leather jacket is so yesterday. Give the classic leather an EDM remix by buying it in a metallic color that catches the light.
These metallic biker, moto and leather jackets come in shiny colors that are not often seen. Throw it over a bralette or bodysuit for a cover up that steals attention. These impressive pieces will also look stunning with skin tight jeans, a little black dress or slutty raver costumes.
We start with the most expensive ones and work our way down the line of price points. The outerwear at the top is made from animal-based materials but there is faux leather closer to the bottom.

A metallic leather or faux leather jacket is just the thing for a space goth wardrobe. This is also known as being galaxy goth because instead of wearing all black and hating the world you wear all galaxy and star prints. Metallics, aliens and anything to do with space are also acceptable. So now you believe that the truth is out there again.
