A biker vest that never met a bike. Black lace, leather lapels, a silver zip pulled two thirds up. Under it, black wool wide-leg trousers over suede sock boots. Lace has opinions about weather. I ignore them. Wear it on a warm night. No jacket.

A biker vest rebuilt in black lace with leather lapels and a silver zip, over wide-leg wool trousers and suede sock boots.

A sleeveless biker vest that swaps the leather body for black lace: leather notch lapels with snap studs, an off-centre silver zip, one flap pocket and a belt strap with a square buckle hanging at the hip, all of it holding panels of floral lace where the hide should be. The hem cuts away at the front into two long leather points.

It goes over high-waisted black wool trousers with a pressed crease and a wide, straight leg, and black suede sock boots with a stiletto heel. The trousers calm the vest down; the vest stops the trousers from going to the office. Spring and autumn, dinner or later, sleeveless, with the hardware as the only accessory that matters.

All the attitude of a leather jacket with none of the insulation. In this city that is called engineering.
