You may be used to cotton denims and t-shirts, but our favorite newcomer to this year’s New York Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week works almost exclusively with leather.
Have you ever wondered who made the leather sweatpants Kanye West has been seen wearing everywhere from his 2 Chainz “Birthday Song” cameo to just walking the streets? Well you can thank En Noir for them, as well as for contributing to the latest “all black leather everything” trend happening right now.
But we definitely recognize En Noir as more than just a trendy collection.

En Noir’s design aesthetic can easily be compared to what brands like Rick Owens have been doing for years, but it is their obvious streetwear influence that sets them apart and makes for a more wearable collection.
Using almost exclusively black in their collection (hence the name) the brand utilizes an assortment of leathers and even manages to mix in a few exotic skins on their accessories.
