Most likely you allready spotted this beauty’s in magazines like Elle, Vogue or Cosmopolitan: The gloves of Roeckl. Also Celebrities like Paris Hilton, Nina Ruge and Heidi Klum (a german topmodel) have been caught with their fingers in the soft Roeckl leather. Quite recently we saw a pair of Roeckl’s around the fingers of Carrie Bradshaw in the preview stills from Sex and the City the movie.

Gloves are likely to give the woman who wears them a sexy and powerful look. They also radiate elegance, possibly the most highly rated female feature. It needs no explaining that gloves are standard accessories with ‘white tie’or ‘black tie’ dresscodes. Short gloves like the ones Carrie is wearing begin to pop up at cocktail parties everywhere and all self-respecting accessories manufacturers offer them in their assortiments.

Satin is far the most popular material, though it might come off quite ordinary. Leather is something different. For Gloves a very soft and smooth kind of leather is required, like nappa or sheep. The Roeckl Gloves are manufactured of Ethiopian hairsheep, a sheep that lives at high altitudes and provides the softest leather possible.

By wearing gloves you can add a little edge or twist to your looks, provided that you wear them with flair. E.g. do’nt forget taking them off – also when their feel is just a thrill – , before shaking someones hand (just good manners) .
