It’s time to cross the Atlantic for London Fashion Week, where heritage heavyweights and rising stars converge for fall 2026. The city’s storied houses—Burberry, Erdem, and Simone Rocha—return to the spotlight alongside a new generation of talent, supported by the British Fashion Council’s influential NewGen program.

Under the leadership of newly appointed CEO Laura Weir, the BFC has doubled down on efforts to reinvigorate LFW. For the second consecutive season, show fees have been waived, lowering barriers for emerging designers. Meanwhile, NewGen continues to spotlight rising names including Tolu Coker, Karoline Vitto, and Pauline Dujancourt.

Several familiar brands are also making a return to the London schedule. Temperley London is back after a seven-year hiatus, as is Joseph, now showing under new creative director Mario Arena. And Julien MacDonald, formerly of Givenchy, returns with his eponymous label for the first time since February 2023.

Regulars including KNWLS, Conner Ives, Chopova Lowena, and J.W. Anderson round out a packed lineup. The week begins Thursday evening, February 19, with Harris Reed, and concludes Monday the 23rd with Daniel Lee’s latest collection for Burberry. Consider this your cue to stay tuned—we’ll be tracking every standout moment from fashion month’s second stop.
