Is there a more coveted item in your wardrobe than that of the leather jacket? Probably not. Because, let's face it, what doesn't go with a leather jacket?

You can dress it up with a ballgown – like Sarah Jessica Parker and her vibrant pink Oscar De La Renta number at the amfAR Gala 2012 – or dress it down with jeans, a la Kate Moss circa most months. You can pair it with leather trousers and pitch yourself as the ultimate Catwoman, or shove it over last season's cast offs and instantly upgrade your look to 'now'.

Born in the 1900s, the leather jacket was first worn by aviators as 'brown leather flight jackets'. Popularised by the likes of Marlon Brando in The Wild One (1953) and later, Tom Cruise in Eighties classic Top Gun, finding its place in popular culture has meant the leather jacket has been a cupboard staple ever since.**
