London is not simply enjoying a moment; it is presenting a spectacle. Spring/summer 2026 arrives as an exciting reminder of what the city does best: originality with bite, unpredictability with charm, and style that extends beyond the catwalk and into the streets.

With Laura Weir now in charge of the British Fashion Council, the program hums with a newfound sense of optimism and boldness; you can feel it in the air well before the first look steps out.
The lineup for this year emphasizes both substance and spectacle. Erdem and Roksanda celebrate two decades of perfectly honed vision, while Fashion East, led by Lulu Kennedy MBE, celebrates 25 years of nurturing rising talent in the British city. These are examples of how London can transform raw ideas into long-lasting institutions without losing its edge.

This season, rebellious spirit is more visible, with emerging designers such as Rory William Docherty, Connor Ives, and Dilara Findikoglu dominating the London Fashion Week calendar.
And the street comes next. As expected, the city transforms into a living, breathing mood board, complete with bold designs that pop like confetti, sharp-shouldered tailoring softened by whisper-thin silks, vibrant colours that appear to stand out, and an abundance of shoes and bags. Autumn has arrived in the UK. You can spot some of this season’s major trends on the sidewalks, such as slouchy boots and sequin skirts.

Overall, this year’s London street style reflects a contrast between refinement and rawness, legacy and innovation, as seen on the runway. Individual uniqueness matters more than everyone dressing the same or just following trends: it’s about how you twist, combine, and adapt — with accessories, hairstyles, or simply the right attitude.
