    Back to boarding school cool with Erdem

    The neat Marni fur collar, sensible hem, pulled up jolly hockey sticks style socks and glossy curls suggests the inspiration behind this look was Enid Blyton's Mallory Towers boarding school.

     

    But this is is one school where rules are broken. Beneath the prim, luxurious Rocha jumper comes the passion of Erdem's Pollock like patterns in layered splattered paint. The dark inky colours and wild mood of the dress were based around the rages of Erdem's muse.

     

    His muse was an artists wife, who would slash and claw at her partners canvases, destroying the art and recreating her dresses from the paint torn pieces. She sounds nice...Adding a certain arrogance to the look is the brash gold chains and glean of the Stella McCartney bag, Louis Vuitton necklace and bracelets and Tatty Devine cuff. On her feet are Miu Miu shoes in light copper coloured suede.

     

    Erdem Moralioglu studied at the Royal College of Art. He worked for a designer in New York before setting up his own label which is known for its immaculate cutting and signature florals.

    Diane Von Furstenburg Femme Fatale

    She plays by her own rules, brooding under the dull lights and wafts of smoke with her hair perfectly coifed. Channeling film Noir's Lana Turner or Rita Hayworth this well dressed lady shimmies into a deep plum billowing Diane Von Furstenberg dress and shrugs on Spanish label Loewe's leather jacket.

    Emphasising the female form is the decidedly sexy Naza Yousefi harness with its soft black leather subtlety introducing the fetish trend creeping in for AW11. She packs her Dior handbag and slips on a Ralph Lauren tailored jacket. Making a final dramatic change she wraps up in Burberry's sumptuous fur and quilted coat. She is the 40s femme fatale of because, seductive and dangerously stylish.

    Meadham Kirchhoff manic magic

    This look is stacked with attitude and bite that would make Courtney Love give a sullen nod of approval and have Taylor Momsen franticly taking tips. Smatterings of glitter and gaudy jewels piled on to haunting religious imagery bring an eerie grunge quality when paired with the sweet candy chiffon skirt. Sticking with the theme of angst and anarchy, round the neck hangs the crudely cut gold heart created by the Grand Dame of rule breaking herself, Vivienne Westwood.


    Thought this isn't an outfit for being tucked away in a garage playing guitar as there's also a sense of girly corpse bride and luxury that the attention to detail brings that ran through the entire SS11 collection.

     

    Never a duo to mutely follow trends and supply inoffensive luxurious clobber Meadham Kirchhoff bring anarchy and unexpectedness to whatever they put their hand to. French Benjamin Kirchhoff and English-born Edward Meadham met and trained together at Central Saint Martins. They've been busy provoking a reaction with their manic creations, and that can only be a good thing for fashion these days.
