HiLo: The High Road


The biker trend is big on the fall ready-to-wear runways, and people are shelling out serious cash to get buckled, zipped and belted like in the Maison Martin Margiela Collarless Jersey Biker Jacket pictured at left. It's a simple style - elegant, edgy, and tagged with the lofty digits of $1200. At that price you'd better hope you're a biker already used to living on the road because you'll probably have to sell your house after buying it.

Okay, that might have been a bit of an exaggeration but the price certainly wasn't, and I can see a lot more sense in getting the almost-identical style from Juicy Couture's Motorcycle Jacket, priced at a moderate $198.
