Our Favorite Moments From London Fashion Week FW26

From King Charles attending Tolu Coker to the Paul Mescal tribute at the Central Saint Martins’ M.A. show.

The Fall/Winter 2026 season of London Fashion Week is officially in full swing, and with just two days under our belt, we’ve already seen some pretty impressive things. Officially kicking off our festivities was the royalty-approved showcase from Tolu Coker, followed by a grand old runway from Harris Reed, and a tonne of emerging designer inspiration courtesy of the students at Central Saint Martins.

Taking us through to day two, we were treated to an eclectic collection from Berlin-based label LUEDER, followed by a welcome presentation from Fiorucci, with plenty more still to come. Fan favorites like Simone Rocha and and Chopova Lowena are set to return to the schedule this season, plus the big closing show, as always, from Burberry.

Scroll through to see our favorite shows, and stay tuned for more fashion week coverage coming soon.

Tolu Coker

From King Charles III in the front row to the impromptu performance by Little Simz, the show was undoubtedly one of the biggest highlights of the season already. Along with the killer showcase, front-row guests and music, the collection debuted an upcoming, 18-piece collaboration with Topshop, merging British tailoring, classic denim and vintage-inspired detailing.

Central Saint Martins

Central Saint Martins is a regular showstopper, with MA graduates looking to grab the attention of editors, brands and buyers, and they did just that. On Thursday night, 23 budding designers showcased their graduate collections, and there were endless highlights. Oli Clarke executed the art of virality with his T-shirt designs featuring headline-grabbing slogans such as “Paul Mescal” and “Cigarette.” Cigarettes were a popular theme, also showing up in one of Macy Grimshaw’s looks, poking out of a stiff, rusty bodice. Finally, Yodea closed out the show with an impressive structural look reminiscent of some very heavy machinery. This is the next generation of designers, and it’s looking very promising.

Harris Reed

Staged within the Claridge’s Hotel ballroom, the collection marks Reed’s largest offering to date with 19 looks, including four bridal pieces, one of which was inspired by the first bespoke wedding dress Reed created for Camille Charriere. Beyond the bridal suite, the collection explores technical tailoring that moves away from Reed’s traditional Savile Row influences, including panniers on the hips, a heavy helping of texture play and tiger prints.
