Erdem
ERDEM is an independent London fashion house founded in 2005 by Canadian-British designer Erdem Moralioglu, who builds each collection around a researched narrative, frequently a historical female figure. Signature pieces are floral-printed jacquard and organza dresses, lace-trimmed coats and beaded eveningwear, presented on the London Fashion Week schedule. The label dresses the Princess of Wales and other public figures, runs a Mayfair flagship on South Audley Street, and has extended beyond ready-to-wear through a 2017 H&M collaboration and stage and ballet costume commissions.

| Category | Runs | Shape | Length | Size advice | Confidence |
|---|---|---|---|---|---|
| Shirts & overshirts | slightly small | slim to neat through the body, often with volume placed deliberately at the sleeve or collar rather than an all-over relaxed cut | regular to slightly long in the body, sleeves tend to run long | Consider sizing up if you want room across the chest and upper arm, as the shoulder and armhole are typically cut close. | low |
| Trousers & pants | slightly small | clean and tailored through the hip and thigh rather than relaxed | regular to long, frequently cut for heels or intended to break long | Take your usual size if you are between waist and hip measurements, but size up if you prefer any ease through the seat and thigh. | low |
| Jackets | runs small | structured and tailored with a defined shoulder and nipped waist, closer to couture proportions than contemporary boxy outerwear | coats often longer than average; short jackets sit near the hip | Size up one, particularly if you plan to layer, since the shoulders and sleeves are the tightest points. | low |
Does Erdem run big or small?
Erdem fits slightly small. Most people find it safest to take one size up from their usual UK size, especially in structured jackets, coats and anything cut close through the shoulders and waist. Erdem is generally reported to run slightly small and cut narrow through the shoulders, arms and waist in a traditional couture-adjacent way, so shoppers often size up one, while the pieces themselves are sculpted rather than loose.
