The Unholy Matrimony Spring/Summer 2012 Collection makes for a compelling installation from LA based designer Brett Westfall. Continuing to apply a rustic, nomadic aesthetic to contemporary fashion makes the label easy to wear and quite relaxed. Notable facets from the collection are the rough and work tops, from tees and hoodies to lightweight jackets while the shorts and trousers with the asymmetrical cuff completes a great look.

Only good things can come from this exceptional line of womens wear from Unholy Matrimony. A move which will be well appreciated looking at the conceptual approach for the collection which will debut in 2010. Black, like the menswear is a strong part of the collection the feel is very comparable while very unique.
