Few clothes are more iconic than the biker. It’s a perfect garment to add a rocker touch to your looks for spring, while keeping you warm and comfy while the nights are still chilly. Besides, it adapts very well to every occasion, whether it’s by daylight or nighttime, and can be worn with jeans, dresses or more elegant outfits.
In other words: it’s a very versatile item that allows us to play with the heaps of colours and textures they come in. One piece of advice: be careful with the length you choose. Cropped bikers are a go for petite women to make them look taller. The ones that reach the hips will add volume to that area, so make sure that is the effect you are going for before getting one.
But, what if you are not in your 20s any more? Well, there are many ways to wear your biker and make the most out of every outfit. Here are some tips on how to wear bikers at any age:
