MICHAEL KORS Leather Biker Jacket

Born in Long Island and a Fashion Institute of Technology dropout (he famously dropped out when he was offered a job at the boutique Lothar’s, across from Bergdorf Goodman on 57th Street) Michael Kors really is one of the most iconic names in American fashion, as Heidi Klum introduced him as for 10 seasons of the New York-based reality competition show *Project Runway*—no exaggeration.

The leather jacket, an iconic born-in-NYC garment and a New York street style staple, gets the Michael Kors treatment—in great secondhand condition, from a References member’s closet.
