This week's London Fall/Winter 2025-26 shows were bright and splashy. By contrast, British actor Richard E. Grant gave welcome gravitas to the Burberry runway.

From Denzil Patrick’s jousting brotherhood to Di Petsa’s male and female knights in shining armor—chestplates and armory were approached with differing perspectives.

Designer Steven Stokey-Daley has fun with fashion, making his biannual runway shows a true delight. This fall 2025 season did not stray from that reputation. Whimsical and fun, the S.S. Daley collection was brimming with joy. These bubble skirts made me smile, which I didn’t think was possible after my red-eye flight to London from New York.
