Gloves are not only a functional, but also a stylish wardrobe item. They reliably protect the brush from the cold in winter and at the same time can serve as a bright touch in the image. Thus, long gloves reaching the level of the elbow have become a real cinematic accessory, and exquisite lace models are an excellent addition to wedding dresses. What can you say about women's leather gloves without fingers?
A bit of history
Fashion historians believe that leather fingerless gloves were invented by George Washington during the war in the US. Soon the invention was undeservedly forgotten. A little later, in the 80's an accessory was chosen by punks, bikers and other informal people. At that time no one had guessed that they would soon become a famous designer accessory, which even women would wear.
The grandiose return of gloves occurred at a time when the ladies began to master the car and get behind the wheel. Many complained that the delicate skin of the hands is experiencing heavy loads when driving and they need some kind of protection. As a result, leather women's car gloves were developed. Their characteristic features are:
- suede or leather;
- slot on the outside of the palm;
- small oval slots on the knuckles;
- button fastener;
- holes for ventilation.
Leather women's gloves for driving were offered in different colors and styles. So, for the cold season, ladies could wear leather driver's gloves with long fingers, and in summer they easily changed them to leather car gloves without fingers. In addition to the automotive purpose, tanning gloves perform decorative functions. They put on to give the image some kind of rigidity and even rudeness, hinting in this way about the readiness to play by male rules.
Cropped leather gloves in modern fashion
Today there are two types of leather sleeper gloves: glovelettes and mittens. Gloveletts bare only the upper part of the finger and have for each finger separation. Mytens almost completely expose their fingers, allocating only the thumb.
Modern designers presented gloves in the following styles:
- Feminine image. It is appropriate here mittens with romantic attributes in the form of butterflies, bows and patterns. They will give the image a lightness and fit for the spring kit.
- Biker style. Pick up black leather gloves with cut-off fingers, decorated with chains, rivets and rhinestones. With such an accessory, it is better to wear motto shoes with a low heel and a leather jacket.
