Junya Watanabe jacket, Dior dress, Body Editions body, and Meadham Kirchhoff shorts, all Susie's own
"I've collected vintage slip dresses and nightwear since
I was a teenager, because they tend to be cheaper than other garments. I love the versatility of slips, underskirts and sheer fabrics."
Silk-organza top, £295, Bally
"I love the delicate nature of underwear but I think a lot of it can be worn as real garments too – a slip dress over a pair of jeans for instance, or a thin cashmere jumper under a slip."
Silk-mix shirt, £205, By Malene Birger
"I think putting together diaphanous pieces makes the layering a lot easier. It's not for everyone because see-through clothes can be a bit off-putting, but for me it's actually a bonus if something is sheer."
Organza-mix coat, £2,415, Moncler Gamme Rouge
"I like the effect of mixing up different textures."
Nylon-mix cardigan, £330, Toga
"Go with clothes that make you happy and not what you think is chic."
