Keira Knightley Has a Night in White Lace at a Candlelit Dinner Honoring Erdem

On Thursday night, Erdem Moralıoğlu hosted friends including Keira Knightley, Sheila Atim, and Orlando director Sally Potter at an intimate dinner at Sessions Arts Club in London. Knightley, who has been wearing Erdem on the red carpet since the London brand’s early days, attended with her husband James Righton, and wore a white lace confection from the spring 2023 collection, unveiled at the British Museum in September. 

Also floating around the artfully crumbling 18th-century courthouse, where the air was scented with palo santo and a pianist delivered genteel versions of ’80s classics: Alexa Chung, who wore look 30 from the restoration-inspired spring 2023 collection, and Jenna Coleman, whose one-shoulder floral dress with dramatic bow detail was from Erdem’s resort 2023 collection, inspired by florist Constance Spry. Atim also chose from the resort collection: an embellished satin black dress finished with a bow belt.
