White Lace & Black Leather is the second studio album by Canadian hard rock band Helix. Recorded at Springfield Sound in Aylmer, Ontario with producer Lachlan MacFadyen, it was released in 1981 on the band's own label H&S Records. The release was the group's first to feature bassist Mike Uzelac and their only to feature drummer Leo Niebudek, the pair of whom replaced Keith "Bert" Zurbrigg (featured on one track, single "It's Too Late") and drummer Brian Doerner, respectively.

Eight of the nine songs on White Lace & Black Leather were co-written by Helix vocalist Brian Vollmer with guitarists Brian Doerner and Paul Hackman, with the remaining track composed by Doerner and producer MacFadyen. As he had done on 1979's Breaking Loose, Doerner performed lead vocals on one track, "Mainline". White Lace & Black Leather was later reissued as part of the 1991 compilation The Early Years, and subsequently remastered for a 2019 reissue with two bonus tracks.
