Women, this is all the fashion inspiration you need for the season. 

Naeem Khan's latest collection was an ode to all the strong, motivated and beautiful women in his life. 

The designer turned the Statue of Liberty into a glamorous poster girl and his collection was bold and colourful. 

Take a look!
