Well, that was a surprise. Hot energy. Sexy. Miss B walking to Britney Spears' Gimme More (meltdown, shaved head era) was our kind of woman in her trompe l’oeil suspenders and lace, worn with a bomber jacket. Strutting. Dangerous. Ultimate black cat energy.

The collection came hard and fast and with a slew of “subway” bags loaded with inbuilt coat or jacket; dangerously ultra low waisted  boot leg jeans; epic wool coats with mega funnel neck collars hair high; leather lots of black leather and the caps, undercover “with see-through visibility” worn over the face a la Leo DiCaprio. Incognito, just how we like it. In a season running rich with variations on lingerie ideas this was the sexiest and most confident, giving everyone a run for their money.

The last four looks with their chiselled shoulders brought that classic Demna/Balenciaga play on volume and exaggerated shape as they towered over us. It may as well have been “It’s Demna bitch / I see you / And I just wanna dance with you”.
