A Tale of Two Cities: Montreal and London (and Meghan's Beautiful Erdem Dress)

I was cheered when I saw Meghan Markle wearing Erdem to a wedding with Harry Wales, because I think it's perfect for her.

Meghan, who lives in Toronto but dates an Englishman, wore a dress by designer Erdem Moralıoğlu, who was born in Montreal and now lives in London. 

I've written about Erdem before, most recently in my Selvedge story on dark florals, of which Meghan's dress is a lovely example. It takes this dark print:


and applies it to the dress above, right.

I also write about Erdem here, in my Selvedge story about Jenny King, master embroiderer.
