There's no denying the sexiness of the iconic black dress but what is so special about the the Derek Lawlor AW10 collection is the added flare of woven fabrics. Taking inspiration from Japanese body armour, Lawlor has created an exceptional collection of knitwear.
The Derek Lawlor AW10 collection creates body-hugging dresses by using wax cords and weaving techniques. Lawlor has moved away from the common knitwear fashion and instead created sophisticated and sleek pieces that can be worn at any age.
