"Leather and Lace" is a song performed by American singers Stevie Nicks and Don Henley. It was released on October 6, 1981, as the second single from Nicks' solo debut studio albumBella Donna (1981).
Nicks and Henley were romantically involved from 1977 until 1978. Nicks originally wrote the song for Waylon Jennings and Jessi Colter's duet album Leather and Lace, but the song was not included. Jennings still intended to use the song for his solo work, while Nicks became attached to the idea of the song as a duet. Nicks' version, a duet with Eagles singer Don Henley, peaked at number six on the US Billboard Hot 100 for three weeks in January 1982. Jimmy Iovine was the producer.
The song compares the male singer's rougher life, represented by leather, to the female singer's softer life, represented by lace, and how opposites can attract. Record World called it a "magical ballad."
Jeffery Austin and Gwen Stefani performed a cover of the song on December 14, 2015, for the season nine finale of The Voice. It was released for digital download simultaneously with the episode's airing.
