[7] A retail-focused event, London Fashion Week Festival, takes place immediately afterward at the same venue and is open to the general public.

[10] In late 2024, a British Fashion Council representative told Parliament that exotic skins — such as alligator, snake and reptile — will be banned from the event as of 2025.

[12] In September 1984, LFW moved to the Duke of York’s Barracks on King’s Road, remaining there for three seasons before relocating to Olympia in March 1986.

In September 2002, LFW returned to the Duke of York's Headquarters on King’s Road, but due to planning permission issues, it relocated to Battersea Park in February 2005.

[15] [16] In 2009, Somerset House became the new venue, hosting LFW until September 2015, when the event moved to the Brewer Street Car Park in Soho.

Since then, the British Fashion Council (BFC) has adopted a hybrid digital-physical approach, resulting in no official LFW venue since February 2020.
