London Fashion week is one of the most exciting events to take place in this fashion epicenter of Western Europe. It is a five-day event that takes place each year around February. This highly anticipated series of gala events, exhibits, and parties sees the biggest and brightest names from the world of fashion and design descend upon London for this electrifying week that easily rivals those in other fashion capitals with similar fashion weeks including Paris and New York City. If you are planning to attend, you will want to secure your London Fashion Week tickets as soon as possible as they will not last long.

London Fashion Week events are held in the same general part of town as one another, but are hosted in different buildings and locations. Traditionally, the London Fashion Week Exhibitions are held on London’s popular Strand. The Strand is a three-quarter-mile-long street in Westminster that runs east from Trafalgar Square to Fleet Street. Events are held at places such as the Flower Cellars on Russell Street, the Victoria House in Bloomsbury, and Freemasons’ Hall on Great Queen Street. One of the great things about the London Fashion Week events schedule is that it is full of engaging catwalks, exhibits, and shows all in one really cool part of town in venues that are all within close proximity of one another.

After you have checked out your designers or exhibitors of choice, whether it is the Burberry Prorsum or Paul Smith catwalk shows or the Krystof Strozyna or Christian Blanken presentations, head out to Covent Garden or Soho for dinner and drinks at one of London’s shabby chic eateries or pubs. The club scene in the area is also always kicked into high gear by the advent of London Fashion Week. The celebrity factor is a big driver as locals as well as those in town for London Fashion Week events seek out the most exclusive parties and club events just to catch a peak at the likes of Naomi Campbell, Kate Moss, and the rest of the supermodels and king pin fashion designers in town.
