Trending: Leather trousers

One of the trickiest trends of the year - not least because of their 'sausage leg' and 'lady of the night' connotations - fashion's movers and shakers are loving leather-look trousers this autumn.

 New York's current street style guru, Miranda Kerr , stepped out in leather trousers and a host of chic accessories this autumn, with son, Flynn, in tow.

 Luxe leather was the order of the day at Valentino 's A/W '12 show; with the texture trend extending from trousers to full-on jumpsuits.

 Sticking to his signature style, Gareth Pugh 's A/W '12 collection saw models encased in tight leather trousers and much structured, dark tailoring on top.

 Navy and red stripes marry well with leather drainpipe trousers on this Milan S/S '13 show goer.

 Not one to shy away from the more 'out-there' end of the trend spectrum, pop star Rihanna embraced the tricky, wide-leg leather trouser look when in New York this winter.

 Alexander Wang showcased some leather-panelled, tapered trousers, cut neatly to sit on the models' ankles, in his A/W '12 collection.

 Derek Lam channelled cowboy chaps, and offset them against delicate sandals and plain tops, for his monochrome-hued A/W '12 collection.

Model Jessica Hart teamed her leather trousers with Breton stripes and a slouchy trench coat, for a modern take on a couple of classics.
