London Fashion Week kicks off today, with many designers presenting their AW22 collections – but which should you be keeping a close eye on?
Despite the challenges posed by the pandemic – not to mention Storm Eunice, which has reared its ugly head just in time for LFW – it always brings a feast for the eyes, and this season will be no different.

When is London Fashion Week?
LFW happens twice a year in February and September.
The February event will see collections for autumn winter 2022 showcased, while the September shows will present spring summer 2023 collections.
It kicked off today, February 18th, and will go on until Tuesday 22nd.
Is London Fashion Week 2022 open to the public?
In the past, LFW was exclusive to those who were invited by designers and accredited by the British Fashion Council (BFC). Fashion industry experts — from buyers to bloggers — could apply to be accredited by the BFC so they could get tickets to their chosen shows.
If you’re looking to get accredited for next season, head to the London Fashion Week website to apply. But make sure to be quick because tickets are sent out early.
However, the pandemic has led LFW to pivot to a phygital (a mix of physical and digital) format. This has given the public the opportunity to catch shows without a need for tickets.
The catch, of course, is that we can only watch them on our screens.
How to watch London Fashion Week 2022
If you choose to catch the shows at home, you can do so by tuning in to the livestreams hosted on the LFW website.
