What the frock?!
This flimsy, cheap-looking babydoll dress is the star of the new Saint Laurent collection — and costs a staggering $68,000.
The Peter Pan-collared, schoolgirl get-up, featuring a dowdy black bow tie and tiny puffy sleeves, was on display at the famed design house’s new Soho boutique until last week — when it actually sold!
Store workers yesterday wouldn’t say to whom.
The frock is part of a collection under eccentric French designer Hedi Slimane, the creative director for SL, who has dressed everyone from Brad Pitt to Madonna to Mick Jagger.
It’s even featured in a new ad campaign with top model Cara Delevingne.
Slimane’s collection has at least one D-list fan.
“I love it. It reminds me of Value Village,’’ crowed Courtney Love to the Web site The Fashion Law.
“I love that rich ladies are going to pay a fortune to look like we used to look when we had nothing . . . Hedi is a genius.’’
