Embracing the sheer fad that has hit fashion houses across the globe, the Natalie B Coleman SS11 collection nevertheless puts its own unique spin on this theme. First of all, there is a focus on "ghostly watercoloured" illustrations, as Style Bubble describes. The construction itself is a feast for the eyes.

Entitled 'Damaged Goods,' the Natalie B Coleman SS11 collection's illustrations focus on 'damaged' femmes. Yet aside from that, this line is flawless.
