All the Best Looks of London Fashion Week Fall 2019 So Far
London Fashion Week has it all, from the romance of beloved brands like Molly Goddard and Simone Rocha (whose show delighted guests with unexpected appearances by Chloë Sevigny, Lindsey Wixon, and Lily Cole) to the edginess that has drawn so many creatives from elsewhere to London in the first place. Matty Bovan, whose fantastical work could fall into either category, pleased fans with his printed creations, made from Liberty fabrics and crochet. Alexa Chung also showed at the beginning of London Fashion Week, and loved a certain vintage-inspired look that she created so much she actually wore the same look out for her final bow. There is still so much more to come during LFW—Victoria Beckham and Burberry, among others—but there have already been plenty of hits. Here are the best runway looks thus far from the English capital.
