Here Are The 8 Major Trends from London Fashion Week

For the spring 2026 season in London, designers opted for bold swaths of colour, such as blues and maroons, along with pleasantly vibrant prints, like dense florals and classic plaids. Even though some key players were missing from the calendar (JW Anderson and Molly Goddard, to name a few), many designers, old and new, managed to make this season come alive.

Here are eight need-to-know trends to know from London Fashion Week.

Bold Blues

Bright blues—specifically cobalt and Yves Klein shades—were everywhere this season. These rich but warm hues are the perfect addition to any transitional wardrobe, channeling the vibrancy of summer nights with the cool-toned onset of fall. It can be worn as a minimalist, monochrome statement, or elevated through depth and texture, as seen at shows like Ahluwalia and Pauline Dujancourt.

In Full Bloom

Florals are an unsurprising motif for the spring runways. However, this season’s offered a clever twist. For some designers, including Mithridate, Richard Quinn, and Yuhan Wang, the print was a more dense iteration of the usually lightweight trend. For others, such as Marques’ Almeida and Simone Rocha, garments were graced by a singular stem, making it the centrepiece of the look.

All in the Hips

No matter where you turn, 18th-century dressing is on its way in. Think voluminous skirts, crinoline frames, and cinched waists all styled in a modern context. Simone Rocha’s sequined opening look is a perfect example of this; however, we saw plenty of exaggerated examples at Roksanda, Toga, and Erdem, too.

Electric Green

Blue wasn’t the only hue dominating the runways—we also saw plenty of chartreuse and lime green. The buzzy color feels both mod and modern, and was seen across a wide array of silhouettes. Simone Rocha boldly spruced it up with a padded-hip dress and Ahluwalia kept things sleek with a simple mini set. Meanwhile, Conner Ives paid homage to the iconic “Brat green,” reminding his audience that “pop music will never be lowbrow.”

The Mini Moment

If cinched-waist midi dresses are having a renaissance, ultra-chic ’90s minis are too. This time around, they’re represented across a wider array of silhouettes. For example, Erdem kept things brief, cutting a sculptural corseted dress well above the knees. Elsewhere, Dilara Findikoglu opted for her usual slinky aesthetic.

On The Fringe

Fringe managed to make its presence known yet again on the London runways. This dynamic embellishment brought some added movement, whether it be on Burberry's luxe turquoise leather jacket and accessories or all-over at Tove. Adding movement to your look will always be timeless.

High Times

High-waisted briefs took over a few seasons ago and it looks like they’re still here to stay. On the London runways, we saw them every which way—Simone Rocha bedazzled them, Burberry crocheted them, and Mithridate paired them with a funky print. Take this as your excuse to take the “big shirt, little pants” outfit combo to a whole new level.

Laced Up

Lace filled the spring collections—it’s light, airy, and malleable, making it the perfect textile for the season. As opposed to the frilly iterations of seasons past, the pieces on the London runways felt more antiquity-inspired. Bora Aksu used lace as a trim on a tiered gingham dress; meanwhile, Yuhan Wang paired it with real-life armour—you can’t get more vintage than that.
