London Fashion Week’s plot was the homecoming.

McQueen returned to London after 25 years showing in Paris, and Mulberry rejoined the calendar after six years. W’s September 21 runway update catches the spring 2027 collections.

The names behind the fresh runway posts: Seán McGirr at McQueen, and Christopher Kane at Mulberry. W’s roundup, updated as Burberry closed the week on September 21, puts those returns alongside London’s emerging designers.

Why it matters to the outfit conversation: these are familiar brands showing in a different context, giving fashion feeds a story beyond another carousel of clothes. Spring 2027 is the collection season, not a typo in today’s date. Borrow an idea for your own fit; you do not need the runway price tag.
