Channel Your Inner Rock & Roll with YSL

3:27 PM

We must admit, the first ten-ish looks of the show had us concerned that this show was a bust.  But like the loyal fashionistas we are, we endured and were rewarded for our loyalty...though there were a few more pieces that were wholly un-imaginative the ratio started to lean more in our favor.  We're not completely sold but there are a couple of fun dresses that we'd love to have in our closets.

The sparkly dresses with deep-v's down to there are certainly attention-grabbers and while we appreciate the sexiness of the sheer tops we're not sure how fresh the concept is...besides to wear it out we would need add at least a lacy bra underneath, changing the entire look.  We did have a few favorites:  the flouncy kelly green dress with black netting would be perfect for a night out in the upcoming warmer months and we could always find a reason to wear the black cocktail dresses with interesting sculptural shapes.  The rest we could probably live without - or at least find a comparable version at the mall.  Not a total miss but certainly not our favorite show.  Better luck in the Fall YSL!

The black opening dress with a sparkly V almost down to the models navel certainly got our attention while the new take on a pinstripe suit is interesting but not exactly the most original.

We love a leather mini...and we love a flash of skin but it's been done before.  Quite a bit actually.  Time to step up your game YSL!

These flouncy cocktail dresses are among our favorite looks - though they show quite a bit of skin, the volume offsets the sexiness while the jackets paired with short socks and heels add a personal touch.

We love a good mix of patterns and YSL excelled in that department - from Waldo stripes paired with glitter jackets to black and pink with leopard print, don't be afraid to step outside the box.

One-shoulder gowns are still en vogue and get an updated with shorter sleeves in prints paired with leather leggings or to-the-floor sequins.

Our favorites from the show, these black cocktail gowns are anything but boring with interesting structural details that can be worn year-round.  Make the look your own with accessories to match your personality.
