AUTUMN IN BLOOM: ERDEM A/W COLLECTION 

One of this season’s most striking collections comes courtesy of Erdem. For A/W13, Erdem Moralioglu’s eponymous label beautifully blends elegance and femininity with couture-level craftsmanship.

A London Fashion Week favourite, his signature floral prints are still very much in evidence with wearable ladylike shift and tulip-shaped dresses, but A/W13 sees a darker palette with navy and black at the fore. Stand out pieces include crepe and wool blend floral tops, and a selection of silk and organza layered dresses.
 
You can shop the new collection in our First Floor Womenswear department now.
