Black leather skin-tight sets. Glimmering slinky dresses. A rain of studs. The new Ludovic de Saint Sernin x Zara drop arrives like a fever dream of desire and irreverent decadence. In our new series, we slip you into five intimate POVs where reality blurs with fantasy – and the clothes do most of the talking. Consider them invitations to misbehave beautifully.
POV: You’re staying the night at the Chateau Marmont.
We miss the days of Paz de la Huerta stumbling out of the LA’s hotspot (after being denied entry, no less) or Lindsay Lohan’s enormous 46K unpaid bill that got her banned from Chateau. The knitted shirt-dress and black leather boots are a guarantee that you will be welcomed with open arms. Plus, a maxi sheepskin bag will fill all your essentials for the (probably sleepless) night.
POV: You’re going to see Pillion.
We come to this place… for magic, and as far as we’re concerned, Pillion is THE movie of the year. While watching the love story set in the world of BDSM, it might be fun to take things to the 5D level and channel Alexander Skarsgård's dom character in this black leather jacket and biker trousers. An immersive cinema experience indeed.
POV: You’re going on a threesome date.
Let’s face it: once in a while, it’s exciting to switch up the plot and become a guest star to a couple you might be fancying. And while you’re at it, gag them with a look they will be discussing for a long time to come. This silk polo shirt and trousers set looks like it will be easy to take off, too.
POV: You’re in The Devil Wears Prada fashion montage.
If you’re like me, you often go back to the look Andy Sachs wore post-hook-up with the blonde-curled gentleman in Paris. The cinched blazer, the tight pencil skirt, the dangling pom-pom scarf – all very LdSS. As we’re girding our loins for the movie’s sequel coming out next year, having some fashion montages of us strutting around town (even if it’s just in our heads) might be a good way to pass the time and ease the anticipation, and this reversible sheepskin-effect jacket is at the top of our list for this very scenario. C’mon, Vogue!
POV: You’re going all out.
Last time I went out in London at the Club Are party, everyone and their mother was wearing a thong peeking out of their skimpy outfits. This studded leather bra is very much in the same vein – perfected for dancing all night long and making out with a hottie (or three).
