The Elke Kramer Spring 2011 lookbook tells the story of "a 19th century English rose who escapes from the lap of luxury to accompany a traveling spice merchant on an adventure across Africa," according to Refinery 29. Transforming the lady into an exotic traveler, the line is both magical and daring.
Entitled 'The Shake of Ophelia,' the Elke Kramer Spring 2011 collection will be available at Opening Ceremony, Urban Outfitters and Collette this month.
