The British Fashion Council is unveiling a new look for London Fashion Week this season with both the catwalk and exhibition spaces being housed in one tent on the east lawn of the Natural History Museum. This new format is part of a strategy to help visitors maximise their time in London. Out of a total of 55 shows, 21 will be held in the BFC tent, increasing opportunities for this global fashion audience to see the talented designers within The Exhibition at London Fashion Week, including BFC initiatives NewGen supported by Topshop, and Estethica sponsored by Monsoon.
Hilary Riva, Chief Executive of the British Fashion Council commented: "In order to accommodate 51 shows in a womenswear schedule which is a day shorter, every effort has been made through show scheduling, this new format and working with other fashion showcases, to create a central hub. This will reduce travelling time and give all visitors the best opportunities to see an increased number of designers during their stay."
