Saint Laurent A/W 2015

Mood board: Hedi Slimane was up to his usual cool-chick tricks serving up a group of rocker girls and their groupie friends in ripped up, high fashion fun for A/W.
Best in show: Crinoline dresses were big in this collection: the best ones were the embellished black looks with splayed skirts bouncing well above the knee in a very 1980s by way of the naughty 1950s fashion.
Finishing touches: The shredded black panty hose is a Sunset Boulevard concert staple. As were the ankle booties that came in either stiletto height or easy run-around-the-stadium flats.
