The Elkin Spring 2012 collection may have an innocent farm girl look to it, but it was actually inspired by brothels and bordellos that were once visited by not-so-innocent farm boys. This collection may have boys forgetting about their schoolgirl fantasies for something a little bit more rustic.
Starring a few local Los Angeles celebrities, the Elkin Spring 2012 lookbook features actress Fabianne Gstottenmayr, Z Berg from The Like, Claire Acey of Nightmare & The Cat and many more. It is interesting to see these cute dresses on some rosy-cheeked women. Filled with voluminous mini skirts, plaid prints and overall dresses, this collection offers the perfect clothes to enjoy the nippy spring weather without being too covered up.
