The London Chronicles: London Fashion Week
Lights, cameras: action!
Get your best shoes and gowns at the ready – London Fashion Week is around the corner. Can you tell we’re excited?
We’ve been on the hunt to collect all the need-to-knows there are about this renowned event.
New York, Paris and Milan may be on the list of where Fashion Week travels to, though London is the first to open their doors to the public.
Will you be attending? We sure have our eyes on the prize! (Aka, tickets!)
What?
London Fashion Week is a biannual event where members of the fashion industry flock to see next season’s trends. Everyone from world designers to editors, buyers and influencers show up to gaze and take note.
Until recently, it’s almost been impossible to bag yourself a ticket to one of these runway shows. This year, you’re in luck!
The British Fashion Council has announced that London will be the first to open their doors to the public this year. Although the event typically runs for 5 days, the public will have access on Saturday 14th and Sunday 15th of September.
Tickets?
If you’re ready to window shop and drool over this seasons must-haves, standard tickets are priced at £135.
Want to treat yourselves and go all out? Tickets for front row seats (the best of the best) will set you back £245.
Not only do you get access to viewing this low-key event, but included in this price is also a seat to listen in on industry-led panel discussions (how exciting does this sound!).
You’re also able to access the DiscoveryLAB! (Can we get an “oooh”?) The DiscoveryLAB is where all things experimental take place – where fashion meets art and music.
The VIP treatment continues! You’ll also be granted a sneak peak at a brand-new designer exhibition and receive complimentary drinks and lunch from the VIP Café.
No matter which ticket you decide to go for, all visitors will be gifted to reusable tote bags! If you decide to go for the Front Row tickets, these will filled with fashion and beauty treats too. (We wonder what these goodies could be!)
Where?
London Fashion Week will be kicking off at The Store X, 180 The Strand. If you’re travelling by train, the closest station is Temple.
Alternatively, if you’re staying with Supercity, The Strand is only a 10-minute walk away from The Chronicle, and 20 minutes from The Rosebery!
