The Ashley Williams Spring/Summer '16 collection strays far from the popular 70s style movement and instead offers the edgy skater styles that took over the early 2000s. This cool collection is bold, rebellious and a little cheeky.
Riddled with fishnet stockings, distressed details and pink and black ensembles, the Ashley Williams Spring/Summer '16 collection sparks memories of Avril Lavigne and Ashley Simpson in their prime. Telling the story of an unapologetic bad girl, this London line features eccentric latex pieces, sheer slip dresses and a 'Bad Mood' motif. "No Code of Conduct" is another often seen graphic within this collection as well as an intricate insect print.
The early 2000s may be long gone but the Ashley Williams cool girl will be reviving it this coming spring.
