All the celebrities on the London Fashion Week front row: Anais Gallagher, Amandaland’s Lucy Punch, Sadiq Khan

London Fashion Week is back in town — and celebrities are filling up the front rows to catch the first glimpse of the autumn winter 2025 collections.

As has become customary in recent years, American designer Harris Reed began proceedings with an 8pm extravaganza on Thursday, 20 February, which saw him take over the Tate Britain.

After a surprise performance by Florence Pugh, wild sculptural gowns — some of which left little to imagination — came down the runway as Sadiq Khan, Mayor of London, and Michèle Lamy watched on.

S.S.Daley, one of London’s brightest young labels which is part owned by Harry Styles, began Friday’s shows with printed leggings, bouncing puffy skirts and a Marianne Faithfull soundtrack. Star of the f’row was Amandaland’s Lucy Punch, who sidled up to fellow actors Sebastian Croft, Sheila Atim and Joely Richardson.

It was quickly followed by Daniel Fletcher’s debut collection for Mithridate, which saw Vanessa Williams and Matt Henry (stars of the West End musical The Devil Wears Prada) join Girls Aloud’s Nicola Roberts.

Closing Friday night was Fashion East, which saw Vivienne Westwood’s granddaughter Cora Corre cheer on the the next generation of hot design talent, and Richard Quinn, where fake snow fell on a f’row counting the Spencer twins, Anais Gallagher and Lola Clark.

Saturday saw Huishan Zhang draw guests into the Dorchester Hotel for a salon-style presentation of glittering evening gowns.

Later this week, expect recognisable faces at Erdem, Simone Rocha, Emilia Wickstead and, on Monday evening, the Burberry show, which in the past has attracted the likes of Kylie Minogue, Barry Keoghan and Naomi Campbell.
