The See-Through Look In Leather: Everyone knows that you can t see through leather
The See-Through Look In Leather: Everyone knows that you can t see through leather, but those enterprising members of the Leather Institute have found a way of coming into line with the current " see-through: trend with this striking trouser suit by Paradise, in Pittards orange nappa leather. It is not envisaged that every wearer will be as daring as model Elaine Martin, who wore nothing under the cut-out jacket when she modelled the suit at the Ninth Annual Leather Fashion Fair, held at the London Hilton Hotel, at which fashions by members of the Leather Institute were shown.

EDITORS COMMENTS
In this print from April 1969, we are transported back to a time when fashion boundaries were being pushed and daring trends were embraced. The Leather Institute, known for their innovative approach, introduced the "see-through" look in leather with this eye-catching trouser suit by Paradise. Made from Pittards orange nappa leather, it defied expectations as its transparency added an unexpected twist. Model Elaine Martin fearlessly showcased the ensemble at the Ninth Annual Leather Fashion Fair held at the prestigious London Hilton Hotel. With her radiant smile and confident demeanor, she embodied the spirit of this unique creation. Elaine's boldness was evident as she wore nothing under the cut-out jacket, showcasing both her individuality and the audacity of this design. While not every wearer may be as daring as Elaine, there is no denying that this striking trouser suit left a lasting impression on all who witnessed it. It symbolizes a moment in fashion history where creativity knew no bounds and traditional notions of clothing were challenged. This photograph captures an era defined by experimentation and self-expression through clothing choices. It serves as a reminder that fashion has always been about pushing boundaries and embracing one's own style without hesitation or conformity.
