The Northern Irish designer with an eye for detail and a flair for the unexpected J.W. Anderson relies on reconstructing the familiar with his AW17 offering. Putting a subversive spin on the cold-shoulder silhouette while retaining its wearability, this dress is defined by dramatically ruched drawstring arms and a dropped, curved hemline. Crafted from pure cotton, delicate spaghetti straps frame its square neckline. J.W.

J.W. Anderson cuts to the chase this season, literally deconstructing styles with innovative textures and interesting shapes to celebrate British craft. Typically done in heavier fabrics, this patchwork midi dress is made from seersucker cotton chambray. The self-fastening straps frame the cold shoulders and sweetheart neckline, while drawstring detailing at the leg-of-mutton sleeves adds drama to the A-line silhouette. J.W.

Inspired by British craft and traditional craftsmanship, don’t be so quick to set the needle quite so far back when uncovering J.W. Anderson ’s AW17 collection. While the mismatched fabrics, patterns and textures may have been seen before, this sleeveless midi dress is anything but dusty. The off-kilter references and cascading ruffles keep it modern, while the latter can be easily unbuttoned to alter the frill factor through the skirt. J.W.

Draping is one of the buzzwords from J.W. Anderson ’s AW17 collection, as the designer dipped into high-low hems and asymmetry to complement the female form. This wool-twill maxi dress sums up the look, suspended from contrasting supple suede straps that are sturdy and fully adjustable. Accentuated with a scoop neckline and fitted bodice, the draped sides create a peplum effect with hook-and-eye fastenings – a nod to corsetry. J.W.

Jonathan Anderson presented a one look, one idea J.W. Anderson collection for AW17 (well, not quite), and vetoed the experimentalism from his younger years for something more controlled and focused. “Über-feminine” was his reference point, and it’s showcased in its most fluid and organic with this maxi dress whipped up from pure wool. Emitting bohemian vibes with ribbon tassels, the painted stripes angle a more avant-garde vibe. J.W.

Glistening and golden, this Italian-made midi dress from J.W. Anderson ’s AW17 collection falls asymmetrically and drapes around the body.

Jonathan Anderson is known for his cut-and-paste approach to design – he often creates mock-ups in his studio, deconstructing pieces, turning them inside out and cropping in other fabrics. From the Pre-Fall '17 collection, this dress is pieced together from pinstriped cloqué and checked flannel, which has been exclusively developed in Italy using artisanal washing and dyeing techniques. It's detailed with pintucks and swishy buttoned ruffles that are detachable.

Jonathan Anderson opened his Fall '17 runway in London with this black midi dress. Designed to feel feminine and effortless, it's cut from crisp cotton-twill with a lustrous sheen and has two cargo pockets at the cutout bodice and a ballooning hem. Echo the show styling by parting your hair to the side and fastening it into a low ponytail at the opposite shoulder.
