AUTUMN WINTER 2025

THE COLLECTION

For Autumn Winter 2025, Erdem collaborated with the artist Kaye Donachie. The pair were contemporaries at the RCA, but the idea for collaboration was born years later when Erdem commissioned Kaye to paint his late mother’s portrait. He was struck by Kaye’s method of painting with poetic license to record a character from the past.
