Erdem Moralioglu was inspired by Guy Fawkes Day (the U.K.’s answer to the Fourth of July), filling his line with “firecracker” print dresses paired with bold red pumps.

Chanel’s powerhouse designer Karl Lagerfeld struck for a Byzantium theme inspired by the Empress Theodora, featuring red thigh-high boots with bejeweled buckles.

Diane von Furstenberg aimed for pure 70s nostalgia with a palette of red, mustard and royal blue boots.

Oscar de la Renta’s collection radiated his trademark glamour, with bold red suits and dresses paired with classis beige pumps, or frothy navy dresses with vibrant blue booties.
