Register as a guest About the season

London Fashion Day in short

Since 2023, London Fashion Day has given designers from the UK, Europe, Asia, Africa and beyond a professionally produced runway in London, in front of guests, press and industry. Recent seasons took place at St John’s Church, Hyde Park. Season 8 — PAST. PRESENT. NEXT. — takes place on 8 November 2026 at the historic Porchester Hall in Westminster: twelve fashion voices, six runway slots, opening with students of the London College of Contemporary Arts.

Who it is for

  • Emerging clothing designers
  • Independent fashion labels
  • Established brands entering the UK market
  • Recent fashion graduates
  • Designers developing a new collection or creative direction

How selection works

  1. Apply. Tell the London Fashion Day team about your label, your collection and your presentation goals through the designer application.
  2. Review. Every application is reviewed individually for programme fit, visual identity and readiness for a professional runway.
  3. Proposal. Selected designers receive a full participation proposal by email: presentation format, production scope, fee and next steps. An application is not a booking and does not reserve a slot.

What a season includes

Participation is a full presentation journey rather than a slot: show direction and backstage structure; a runway team of models, beauty and choreography; targeted guest and media outreach; and content that keeps the collection visible after the show. The exact scope depends on the format offered to you.

How the studio can help

Many designers come to us before they apply, or once they are selected, to make the most of the moment:

  • Collection positioning and a press-ready brand story
  • Lookbook and campaign shoots
  • Press kit, media outreach and partnerships
  • A website or online store ready for the attention a show brings
  • Show content edited for social, press and buyers
