There's an image in June's Vogue of Edie Campbell wearing a floor-length suede shirtdress by Hedi Slimane for Saint Laurent. She's in Morocco (always Morocco), standing next to a motorcycle that was probably sourced from the prop department that is George Lucas's garage. The dress is too long and bunches elegantly at Campbell's feet. I saw this and I thought to myself...I relent!
SLP is what it is. Slimane's brand and the pointed, some might venture to say narrow artistic vision behind it may not be avant-garde, but it's certainly got an attitude - a certain disregard for propriety, if you will - that seems to have captured a lot of imaginations. And, well - I want a wide-brimmed hat, too! (Borrowed this one from McArthur so I'm still lacking.)

Since I can't afford anything SLP (did wishlist this murse though), I decided to put my own spin on Slimane's bleached-black-Courtney-Love-goth-rock-surfer aesthetic with a Walmart wig (previously seen here), some secondhand CDG and vintage creepers. What do we think? Am I #sohotrightnow?
