The winner of this year's British Fashion Award for best womenswear designer, London-based, Canadian-born British-Turkish fashion designer Erdem Moralıoğlu served up a 1960's inspired collection for Pre-Fall. 

Erdem mixed grey wool coats and dresses with lace-effect detailing, iris print dresses, silk pieces with floral embroidery along with this season's apparent must-have, a flat-front wide-leg pair of pants. Their vaguely naval air matched the nautical stripes on the sweaters, which arrived with the chunky aran knits. 

Eveningwear options ranged from shorter cocktail frocks to long floaty silk gowns, all cut tight to the body, as were the two-colored diamond patterned pieces in lace. Crystal embellishment was another fun touch, with some patterned sparkle added to leather pieces and jacquard fabrics. 

All those ladylike dresses were offset by the masculine touch of plenty of flat decorated brogues, while other footwear included two-tone, t-bar point-toe sandals with chunky heels.
