Colouring books are no longer just for children, and seemingly no longer just a relaxing hobby.

The trend for whimsical drawings of fairytale foliage has made the leap from the page to the high street with designs that look as if they have been whipped off the table and onto the hanger while the ink was still drying.

The graphic, detailed prints are flattering for any figure, just don't let the kids get their hands on them.
