A Load Of Bull











The latest addition to my ever growing collection of Natalie B Coleman pieces is this gorgeous bull print dress. It's the kind of piece you would expect to see on the Olsen twins in an issue of Vogue or Tattler; it is impossibly cool.

The dress is from Natalie's stunning A/W13 collection 'I Belong To Me'; she says she came up with the exploding bull print in different scales and colours, inspired by Cubism and Hopper’s Hotel lobby colours, with some pop art colour references thrown in. It is featured on a number of great pieces in the collection. I fell in love with the print as soon as I saw it, not least of all because my birth sign is Taurus, the Bull!

The dress is made from a luxurious, heavy satin and features the digitally printed bull design to the front, voluminous bat-wing sleeves in a 100% wool mix, an absolutely stunning butter soft lambskin leather back in brushed gold and is finished off with a gold zip, tailor made in Italy. Natalie's great attention to detail & a sophisticated finish means that even the lining is special; it is her own special jacquard weave of gold lace bulls. The dress also has slit pockets to the side & you all know how much I love a pocket!

This is the perfect day-to-night piece & for it's first ever (daytime) outing, I styled it with my much loved satchel & simple flat brogues. It can easily be dressed up for a glamorous night out by adding some chunky gold jewellery & towering metallic heels. It also looks great styled with a skinny belt, a great way to show off a tiny waist & give the oversized dress some structure. Versatile & gorgeous; I'll be wearing this dress forever!
