Once again, the cobbled streets of London throbbed with creative energy as London Fashion Week (LFW) Fall/Winter 2024 interwoven its sartorial magic around the city. Designers came on stage, both established powerhouses and emerging talents, to showcase their perceptions for the soon-to-be season. This year’s LFW was not just about exhibiting clothes; instead, it was an active exploration of textiles, shapes, and colors that will keep us warm and exceptionally stylish and above all else self-assured as the days turn shorter.

Check out the latest trending fashion that is gonna be yours favorite collection next season:

A Nostalgic Nod with a Modern Twist

This Y2K revival that has been brewing took center stage at LFW. Think drop-waists, championed by Marques’Almeida in imperial gowns with billowing skirts, and Susan Fang’s whimsical dresses that brought some youthful innocence back. Sustainable spin on this trend via patchwork denim ensued at Richard Quinn and Simone Rocha which stitched together vintage pieces into a unique eco-conscious fashion statement.

The Comeback of the Skirt Suit

Although fall is typically the season for pants, the LFW designers argued that suits with skirts were a great option. At Yuhan Wang’s, Huishan Zhang’s and Emilia Wickstead’s fashion houses, skirt suits were raptured in a tailored and elegant way. These clothes provided a flexible yet stylish choice suitable for office wear or a night out.

All Hail to Power Puffs

Prepare yourself for some wardrobe-enhancing volume. The puffball shape was given new life during this year's LFW as one of the mainstays of romantic style. Simone Rocha used layers of tulle and organza to create an ethereal version while Molly Goddard deconstructed her shapes playfully with whimsical textures. Erdem featured subtle puffs on sleeves and hemlines while Molly Goddard showcased deconstructed shapes with playful textures which prove how diverse this trend can be.

Oxblood Obsession

At LFW, the oxblood reds from spring/summer 2024 collections that came out were deeper than ever before. This season, designers have taken it up a notch by embracing luxurious purple eggplant color instead. This refined hue was presented at such brands as Aaron Esh, Burberry, and 16Arlington as an alternative to black that added an unexpected dimension to autumn wardrobes.

Feathers Take Flight

Designers were not scared to add drama in their collections with feathers. Erdem used them to produce cascading fringes on outfits and jackets; whereas, 16Arlington and David Koma incorporated them into bold fashion accessories respectively. The feathers offered a playful luxury for an eye-catching appeal whether delicate and wavy or daringly graphic.

A Celebration of Green

LFW was not just all about sustainability lip-service; designers made conscious choices. Key examples are patchwork denim as mentioned earlier. However, the most stunning eco-conscious style statement was a color trend: green. With deep forest greens at Simone Rocha and vibrant emeralds at Richard Quinn, this versatile hue dominated the entire runways. It symbolized freshness away from stereotypical autumn palettes and denoted a new phase of eco-fashion.

The Opulent Three-Piece

For those who want to look sophisticated, as well make statement, three piece suit returned with full force. A modern perspective was then applied to these outfits which oozed with silent power. JW Anderson gave us a suit that has been deconstructed while Richard Quinn’s sharp tailoring and bright colors created something both timeless yet brazenly bold.

Sheer Bliss

The fall fashion can be lightweight and transparent. Sheer fabrics are the new thing at LFW, creating a sense of delicate sensuality. For example, Simone Rocha added sheer blouses on top of slip dresses, while other designers like Bora Aksu and Molly Goddard used sheer panels to bring out an ethereal beauty in their works. The bottom line? Fall outfits can become more attractive with a dash of mystery.

Bow is Back Again

Whimsicality never goes off-trend even as shown by bows’ comeback by LFW designers. Bows were spotted on clothes such as dresses and tops at Bora Aksu, Molly Goddard and Richard Quinn; they even appeared on handbags! From fragile satin to coquettish bigger sized ones, these details injected some feminine touches whilst adding humour to the most minimalist looking garments ever.
