The 8 Coolest Trends From London Fashion Week Spring 2027

London Fashion Week designers are known for their fearlessness, devotion to craft and commitment to creativity above all else. Most British designers would probably say trends aren’t a major focus of their work, but that doesn’t mean common themes don’t emerge.

Fittingly, most of the Spring 2027 trends we spotted across London runways are rooted in color play, subversion of conventional garments, using old-school materials in new ways and visible handiwork (a rebellion against AI, perhaps?).

Scroll through the galleries below for the eight coolest Spring 2027 trends we spotted at LFW.

Underwear as Outerwear

Lingerie staples are all over the Spring 2027 runways. Whereas New York designers tended to let bras peek out beneath jackets, the Brits have put them front and center: At Agro Studio, Ashley Williams and Erdem, bras and corsettes were worn on TOP of garments; while others like Knwls, Alexander McQueen and Mowalola did little — or nothing — to cover them.

New World Organza

Designers across the pond are modernizing organza, a sheer textile that dates back 2,000 years and was traditionally associated with wedding gowns and frilly prom dresses. And it’s never looked cooler, from the colorful, metallic-looking pieces at McQueen and Mulberry, to the relaxed translucent separates at Mowalola and Lovebirds. Meanwhile, Pauline Dujancourt, Susan Fang and Simone Rocha used innovative techniques to create statement-making textural gowns and scarves out of the material.

Cloudy Skies

Pale, washed-out colors were all over the London runways, but blue was the most ubiquitous: Designers dialed down the intensity of baby blues, sky blues, teals and aquatic shades across outerwear, suiting, dresses and more.

Aprons to ‘Serve’ In

Fashion’s embrace of the humble kitchen apron continues after Miu Miu’s apron-forward Spring 2026 collection, via Talia Byer, Bora Aksu, Natasha Zinko and others. Is it giving tradwife? Is it subverting gender norms? Is it just cute? Let’s let the wearers decide.

Physical Touch

It’s hard to imagine that any major hub of designers could be more resistant to AI design than London’s, where creativity and innovation reign supreme. So it’s not a surprise that Spring 2027 collections were rife with details and techniques that very clearly reflect the work of physical human hands: Unfinished hems, hand draping, multimedia work, myriad fabrics patchworked together and other feats of manual manipulation were seen everywhere from Ashley Williams to Chopova Lowena to Yuhan Wang and beyond.

Choking Up

We saw a range of neck-encircling accessories across the London runways: Choker necklaces went punk at Chopova Lowena and more glam at Di Petsa, while mini scarves and fabric chokers had a more delicate vibe at Agro Studio and John Richmond.

Shrug it On

The shrugs and boleros that (barely) covered our arms circa the early-to-mid 2000s are very much back. London provided quite a variety: stretchy knit shrugs at Ashley Williams and Agro Studio, sheer options at Bora Aksu and Chopova Lowena and purely decorative (and beautiful) boleros at Annie’s and Dreaming Eli.

Neck and Neck

Why accessories provided neck coverage at some shows, many had it built in via turtleneck designs that turn out to me more spring-appropriate than you might think. Sleeveless turtlenecks were especially ubiquitous, as seen at Erdem, Edeline Lee, McQueen, Roksanda and more.
