Step behind the scenes at London Fashion Week as I share my firsthand experience interning for designer Marques Almeida - from steaming runway looks anxiously, to dressing models moments before showtime - and stumbling into one of Mimi's friends! Crazy! Discover the chaos, creativity, and pure adrenaline that bring a fashion show to life - from a completely unique perspective.

Set in the regal Mansion House, Simone Rocha’s Spring/Summer 2026 collection was a dreamy, cinematic delight. From pillows to mountains of tulle, sequins, and glimmering silver, Rocha delivered a collection full of emotion, vulnerability, and her signature romantic femininity. Transparent PVC trenches, frilly pearl-embellished pieces, and even ballerina platform Crocs proved Rocha can make anything runway-worthy.

Day three of LFW was an emotional rollercoaster — I walked my first show, closed it, and then dove straight into reporting on standout collections from Talia Byre, Ashley Williams, Tove, Emilia Wickstead, Marques’Almeida, and Dilara Findikoglu. From cherry-stained corsets and chaotic cosplay vibes to romantic tailoring and punky hardware, today proved why London is still one of the most thrilling fashion weeks in the world.

Day two of London Fashion Week delivered an electric mix of emerging talent and legacy names, with standout collections from Patrick McDowell, Toga, Ahluwalia, Roksanda, and a jaw-dropping 56-look finale by Richard Quinn. Plus, a personal highlight - I was officially confirmed to walk a runway tomorrow, and the excitement is very real.

Harris Reed’s Spring 2026 Ready-to-Wear collection opened London Fashion Week with a theatrical yet intimate showcase of gender-fluid fashion and architectural silhouettes. From sculptural corsetry to couture-level storytelling, Reed continues to redefine what Ready-to-Wear can mean on the runway.
