While red carpet season is typically dominated by familiar designer names like Chanel, Oscar de la Renta and Marchesa, there finally seems to be a shift in tide. That tide is heading across the pond, where after years of building buzz, London’s designers are finally being rewarded with some serious A-list love. In the last month alone, Peter Pilotto, Marios Schwab and Simone Rocha have all graced red carpets. To boot, major fashion force PPR bought 51% of Christopher Kane’s label, showing major confidence in the London-based star.

And as for the subject of today’s post, Canadian-born and London-based Erdem Moralioglu is rising in the ranks quite steadily with the addition of two megawatt fans. In addition to his continuous props from Kate Middleton aka. the Duchess of Cambridge, who wore the designer’s pieces twice (#1 and #2!) during her Canadian visit in 2011, and again this summer on Royal Tour to Southeast Asia.
