His real name is Erdem Moralioglu but his collection is known simply as Erdem. He’s a Canadian-born, London-based Fashion Designer known for exploded floral prints on Victorian-style dresses. He’s also one of the few to capitalize off of the fact that Canada has definitely got talent – though we tend to go quite un-noticed in the mainstream world. Either that, or once we reach a certain peak, we tend to leave our Canadian roots at the border replacing it with a more internationally recognized migration status.
But Erdem has been one to watch since 2005. And thanks to his immaculate eye for colour and grandeur, he’ll be one to keep an eye on for a long time to come.

There’s nothing sexier than actually feeling sexy. OK, I take that back.
The key to unlocking a woman’s self confidence lays within the garments that accentuate her curves. There, that sounds a lot better.
Yes, this is indeed true. There are many women that believe to wear less is to attract more men; Mark Fast designs with less cloth for women who want to feel more sexy.
The Canadian-born couturier designs body-hugging knitwear blending Lycra, viscose, angora and wool fabrics, with results that sway, sashay and wrap around the silhouette.
There’s a lot of legs and bare shoulders to spare. There are plunges, drapes and slits for the bold and the reckless. There’s a minimalism in Mr. Fast’s designs, but it’s juxtaposed with fierceness a la the fringe and sheer effects.
Be advised that the prices are high, stemming into the 1,000 (GBP) area and up.
I guess that also means that you better keep up your membership with the gym and be comfortable with at least four inch stiletto heels.
I love this collection. And you’re damn right I’d wear every ounce of it. I’ve been wearing skin-tight American Apparel dresses for a while now, I’d like to switch it up a bit.
