Romantic and poetic, yet edgy, bold, and contemporary, Erdem s creations have captivated the global fashion scene for two decades. Taking inspiration for his collections largely from women rebels who lived just as they wanted to, Erdem has fashioned a universe where his deep love and appreciation for the past is seamlessly joined with a passion for the here and now. Renowned soprano Maria Callas; Dame Edith Sitwell, a Bloomsbury satellite; Princess Orietta Doria Pamphilj, a descendant of Pope Innocent X; and the LGBTQ writer Radclyffe Hall are only a few examples of the women whose life stories have been spun into the fabric of Erdem s collections.
Evidence of his love of deep research, the book contains many archival items related to his collections that have been photographed especially for this book. Signature floral dresses and organza gowns displayed alongside the personalities and objects that helped inspire them bring to life the material world of the muse and Erdem s inventiveness in translating stories into textile form. His designs have established him as a favourite among fashion insiders, celebrities, and royalty.
A wardrobe of wonders, this much-anticipated book looks at the genius behind one of the most celebrated, independent houses of fashion s twenty-first century. A series of essays by renowned fashion voices illuminate the designer s process, craft, and inspirations and complete this highly personal volume.
