Here are the four trends from London Fashion Week that will be seen everywhere in 2026.

      London Fashion Week has officially concluded, which means it's time to review everything that transpired and how it will influence our wardrobe choices for 2025 and beyond. Both New York and London fashion weeks carry a similarity, showcasing a blend of exciting emerging designers alongside established brands, embodying a punk and gritty spirit that shines on the runways and in the streets. This year's London Fashion Week presented numerous trends that reflected the city's renowned tough and quirky spirit. From a slightly undone aesthetic to unconventional belting, here are four trends from London Fashion Week that will undoubtedly shape the way we dress in 2026.

      **Slightly Undone Imperfection**

      Perfection has been out of favor for several seasons as people increasingly seek authenticity in their attire. "Personal style" has become an enduring buzzword. As individuals strive to capture their essence in their own unique fashion, TikTok tutorials have emerged, providing step-by-step guides to achieving this. However, this led to overly polished and clean looks that felt too uniform, missing the intended mark. At London Fashion Week, a solution surfaced, advocating for a more relaxed, undone appearance. For instance, at Simone Rocha, dresses featured torn tops revealing a bra-like bandeau underneath, with Rocha seemingly questioning, "Who cares?!" Similarly, at Erdem, models showcased corset tops with messy ties that appeared mostly undone, trailing at the hips and occasionally touching the floor. Dilara Findikoglu also exhibited this trend, with random fabric strands flowing chaotically without clear order. A little messy chaos is set to trend next season, and thankfully so! After all, what speaks more to one's personality than wearing clothes in a way that reflects a robust life, where buttons may be left undone, bra straps exposed, or corset ties untied?

      **Brat Green Lives Another Day**

      This past summer felt distinctly different from a typical "Brat summer," making it tough to accept. Yet, brat green—the unofficial color representing Charli XCX's vibrant 365 party-girl lifestyle—persists! Following its prevalence in clubs and concerts, the color has made its way onto the runway. The greens showcased at London Fashion Week were strikingly vivid and at times neon, evoking memories of the now-iconic album cover. At Chopova Lowena, while the palette was diverse, there were notably more vibrant greens than in previous collections. Conner Ives also presented a strikingly accurate representation of brat green. Even some elegant dresses by Richard Quinn featured a playful green tint, giving them a more club-appropriate feel rather than being solely gala-ready.

      **Coquette Comeback**

      Featuring rosettes, Peter Pan collars, and ribbons, the coquette aesthetic remains a favorite among fashion enthusiasts. This style is evidently making a significant comeback on the London runways. At Simone Rocha, oversized rosette flowers in whimsical proportions adorned the hips of pastel dresses. Marques Almeida offered a spin on this look with abstract pressed-floral embellishments on little black dresses paired with punk-inspired tall black boots. Richard Quinn showcased gowns embellished with large rosettes on the collars, complemented by ribbons on various tulle layers. The coquette trend resonates with many due to its nostalgic connection to childhood, reminding us of dress-up moments with dolls and the dream of a wardrobe filled with floral and bow-adorned outfits. While the aesthetic leans toward cutesy, it can easily be styled with punk and grungy elements, creating a look that feels paradoxical yet cohesive. Moreover, with discussions of a 2010s twee resurgence, it appears coquette is here to stay.

      **Funky Freaky Belting**

      Belts have evolved beyond just functional accessories. They are no longer merely used to hold up pants; rather, stylish individuals are now layering multiple belts for an unexpected and intriguing look. This trend was particularly prominent in London, where it was rare to find a belt that didn’t have a unique or eccentric flair. At Nanushka, belts were oversized, resembling leather cummerbunds with strings of embellished beaded strands swinging from the bottom. At Erdem, models sported two belts knotted at the side over floral dresses. Chopova Lowena, known for its signature kilt skirts, showcased belts with oversized buckles that could double as decorative armor. This serves as a reminder that while accessories can be practical, they can also be much more enjoyable when they take on a more playful form.
