Nothing’s more “Brat” than a backless dress, just take it from Charli XCX. The singer attended the 2024 WSJ Innovator Awards in New York on Tuesday night, where she modeled a long-sleeved Saint Laurent design.

Charli paired her wool frock with the French label’s L’Entracte slingback pumps in black satin crepe. She completed her look with jewelry from Dyne by Sarah Ysabel Narici.

Charli recently sported a full Saint Laurent look on her Sweat Tour, which she co-headlined with Troye Sivan. The former wore a sheer tube dress from the label’s fall 2024 collection, coordinating with Lorde, who joined her on stage for a rendition of their “Girl, So Confusing” remix.

Speaking to WWD in February, Saint Laurent creative director Anthony Vaccarello was inspired by fragility for his fall 2024 collection, which featured several looks that evoked silk stockings.

“Don’t ask me about how we might produce it,” he said. “I think my job is to propose something different that is not necessarily realistic or necessary.”
