From Erdem and Mains to Eudon Choi, these are our favourite runway looks from London Fashion Week.
When it comes to fashion month, keeping abreast of the calendar can feel a little overwhelming. With designers in four different cities presenting bright new collections, there’s much to contend with (not forgetting all the celebrities, front-row looks and after-party antics).
London’s fashion scene is always brimming with rebellious spirit, burgeoning talent and fresh ideas, and this remained true this season. Designers showcased their latest offerings in a city-wide celebration of budding creativity and craftsmanship. New faces, including Eirinn Hayhow, Permu and Tolu Coker, made their mark presenting their debut collections, as did rising stars Supriya Lele, DI Petsa, Conner Ives and Sinéad O’Dwyer.
With striking sculptural dresses and towering headpieces at Roksanda, floaty florals at Erdem and slick silhouettes at Eudon Choi, there was much to see. But don’t worry; if you’re feeling a little overwhelmed, let us do the work for you. Ahead, we’ve rounded up our favourite looks from London’s spring/summer 2024 catwalks.

JW Anderson has a knack for reinterpreting everyday basics by putting his own special spin on them. His clay-like clothes with boxy silhouettes playfully imbued the spirit of childhood, meanwhile exaggerated boxy T-shirts were worn with lacquered trousers –chic and somehow still wearable.

Striking jolts of cobalt blue grazed the catwalk at Roksanda, with models wafting in silky dresses and heels with false lash-like fringing. Towering dome headpieces – the shape replicating the crowns worn by Orthodox priests – made for a spiritual affair.

Daniel Lee’s second outing at Burberry felt oh-so jolly. In the mix, standouts included new bold shades (ruby red, bright blue and murky green), heavy chain prints and classic heritage staples, fresh takes on military styles – from jackets to trousers – and, come the finale, a lot of revealing florals.

Statement colour was the resounding take at Eudon Choi. Neutral tones were contrasted with pops of bright colour – yellow accents popped against a neutral beige – equal parts strong and sexy.
Erdem

Riffing off the romance associated with of spring, floaty florals stole the show at Erdem – specifically the trenches with exaggerated lapels, over-the-top embroidered crew-neck cardis and feminine sheath dresses.

You can count on Holzweiler for elevated staples. The Norwegian brand always nails the cool-casual look. The result this year? Silhouettes with fine-knit crochet layered over delicate lace, outerwear and light-wash denim.

Skepta certainly knows how to put on a show. The musician’s first-ever catwalk bucked conventions, eschewing the cliches of rap and sportswear with joyous embroidered pieces, sleek leather and streetwear in all its forms.
Simone Rocha

If there’s one thing Simone Rocha does well, it’s dreamy pieces with all the added drama. New iterations of frilly frocks with puff sleeves and metallic detailing were worn with pearl-encrusted crocs and dainty headpieces.
