London Fashion Week Street Style

Proenza bags, psychedelic prints and fur coats aplenty.

Quirky, colourful and quintessentially English, you can always rely on the street style at London Fashion Week for a bit of pizazz. And just as London's runways have seen even the most eccentric designers inject a heavy dose of sophistication into their collections, its streets were a brilliant mix of polish and flare. Bright satchels and psychedelic prints featured heavily, alongside understated coats and blush tones befitting of a true English Rose.
