Nine words you thought would never come out of your mouth: Give. me. that. hot. pink. perforated. leather. tank. top.

But there’s only one you really need to know: Simone.

Known for her L.A.-based line of darling frocks with just enough edge, designer Katie Simone Nehra has introduced tough-girl leather into her collection.

Look sharp in Teresa (named after Nehra’s grandma), a high-waisted patent snake-print skirt; Nina, a black and white polka-dotted mini; or skinny leather leggings. The rock-chic Renata dress with its long sleeves and hikeable hemline makes for a fresh LBD.

But the gritty-glam must-have of the collection? A smart and sleek slim-cut biker jacket done in a lightweight python-embossed cowhide or its gray suede counterpart.

Word up.
