Last season, Elise Øverland impressed critics and fashion fans alike with an edgy collection that highlighted her rock n' roll costume design past with loads of leather and furs.  For  her Spring 2011 collection, the designer lightened up her vision by incorporating silks, and lace in an array of neutrals with touches of chartreuse and peacock.

As the show progressed  Øverland slowly worked in the brighter summery looks that sparkled and shined with serious sunset-strip appeal.
