Thank you Matthew Williamson. Thank you for this.

Perhaps the ultimate in edgy cocktail dressing from the designer's S/S 2010 ready-to-wear collection, treading the line between this summer's denim infatuation with the upcoming winter's leather fetish.

Williamson's blue leather skirt has pleat and panel detailing, an exposed gold zip at the waist and a big dollop of cool girl attitude.

In black, it might have looked like an 80s throwback piece (albeit a rather good one) but in dusty blue, it's a fresh, modern must-have.

Pair with a boldly coloured top half, epic shoes on the bottom half and own that party.

Get yours here.
