From the 17th – 21st February, bloggers, celebrities and fashionista’s will take to the streets of London to once again celebrate London Fashion Week. As the British Fashion Council take over their new venue, The Store Studios, 180 Strand, we explore our previous favourite venues involved in LFW.
Brewer Street Car Park
In 2015 LFW moved to the heart of Soho to take over Brewer Street Car Park. Expanding over two floors, the creative space hosted catwalks for over 100 designers. Brewer Street Car Park was an ideal location for Fashion Week shoppers, central to popular retailers on Oxford Street, Bond Street and Regent Street.
Saatchi Gallery
Located on Sloane Square in Chelsea, Saatchi Gallery also hosted catwalk shows for LFW 2015. Boasting an airy environment through high ceilings and wooden floors, the gallery is usually home to creative artist exhibitions. In 2015, the creativity and elegance was moved onto the catwalk for runway shows, talks and pop-ups for shoppers.
Old Spitalfields Market
East London’s Old Spitalfields Market was home to high street retailer Topshop during LFW 2016. We loved the urban feel of the runway space, surrounded by a market style pop up shopping platform, which allowed shoppers to buy directly after the Show.
Royal Horticultural Halls
Another leading venue in the fashion world is the Royal Horticultural Halls’ Lindley Hall. The blank canvas venue has previously welcomed the likes of Anya Hindmarch, Stella McCartney, Moschino and Paul Smith to unveil their collections. Located in the heart of London its sweeping glass ceiling, elegant period features and stunning natural light makes it an ideal setting for a fashion Show.
Church House Westminster
Taking in some of the 2017 LFW action this historic venue hosted the fashion Show for up-and-coming fashion designer Huishan Zhang’s Ready To Wear Fall 2017 collection in their Assembly Hall. The circular main offers a stylish setting for catwalk shows and a number of designers are now utilising the venue to showcase their latest collections.
