Matches stock Giles this season with the Brit designer’s Pre AW12 collection.

British label Giles has joined joined the list of designers stocked at Matches Online with his Pre-Collection.

Step into Giles’ fashion fantasy world as Matches add the British brand to its impeccable list of stocked designers. Available now, Giles Pre AW12 comprises stunning illustrated prints, ladylike peplums and statement colour pops in a refreshing and wearable collection.

Staying true to his love of humour, Giles’ inspiration for the collection came from fashion’s unexpected sweethearts, Eddie and Patsy of Ab Fab fame. With tangerine shades, whimsical  illustrations and printed pyjama suits it’s easy to make the Ab Fab connection. However, Giles has managed to make the collection tasteful, chic and dare we say it, practical?

Paying tribute to Pasty herself is the statement Silk Printed Patsy Top which features a whimsical print of the pop culture icon. Wear under a masculine tux with sky-high heels and a topknot for an eclectic cocktail look. Or, if you’re looking for a real investment piece, Giles’ Doppio Crepe Coat in zesty tangerine will add a timeless elegance to your wardrobe whether it’s paired down with off-duty denim or up with a chic LBD.

The highlight of Giles’ Pre collection though has to be the printed pyjama suit. A matching top and wide leg trouser in sumptuous silk and whimsical print is definitely a daring look, but worn alone as separates and both these pieces could easily work their way in to your everyday wardrobe.

The Central Saint Martin’s alumni has always added a quirky, humorous edge to his collections, but this season Giles has created a much more grownup, tamed aesthetic – resulting in very wearable pieces that are at the top of our AW wish list.

Giles Pre AW 12 is available at Matches online now.
