GET SET FOR FASHION WEEK AT THE BERKELEY

18 August 2025

A highlight of London’s cultural calendar, London Fashion Week returns to the capital this September for a glittering celebration of next season’s styles. Future stars share debut collections, established brands show off their design nous, while British names bring experimental energy. For moments of cool and calm between the (admittedly chic) chaos of invite-only shows, VIP previews and sensational afterparties, The Berkeley is an ideal base for fashion-forward stays.

From door to stylish door

While London Fashion Week events take place citywide, The Berkeley’s central location affords easy access to key venues. 180 The Strand is the official show space, hosting catwalk shows, talks and pop-up shopping experiences, while Somerset House and Soho also act as major locations – all are within easy reach of Wilton Street. Whether scouting upcoming fashions in south London or admiring haute couture in Chelsea, The Berkeley’s concierge team will take your travel needs in their stride and have you safely in your seat with time to spare.

Curated access, seamless style

Diaries fill up fast at Fashion Week, which is why we provide a bespoke concierge service for the duration of your stay. From arranging priority access to selected shows, to personal styling, shopping and couture consultations, we have all aspects covered. Arrive in style to events and fittings courtesy of our seamless chauffeur service, and take advantage of our in-hotel experiences, which include tailored spa and beauty appointments, last-minute wardrobe rescue and in-suite garment care.  

All eyes on the catwalk

Of all the major fashion weeks, London has a reputation as the most unorthodox. Expect off-beat British eccentricity, bold looks and unconventional presentations. This is, after all, the city that premiered Alexander McQueen’s painting robots, and Hussein Chalayan’s transforming table/skirt. Along with live shows you can expect virtual experiences and interactive exhibits, all geared to redefining luxury and showcasing upcoming trends. British powerhouses like Burberry, Vivienne Westwood and Stella McCartney are sure to make an appearance, while emerging talents Maximilian Raynor and Tolu Coker are ones to watch.

Destination: downtime

Even amid the hustle and bustle of London Fashion Week, there’s time to relax and unwind. Start mornings with a touch of edible artistry at Cedric Grolet at The Berkeley, before heading to Surrenne Belgravia for pre-show pampering. Take a stroll through the iconic flagships of Knightsbridge, then later it’s time to flaunt your favourite looks at La Môme London, The Berkeley’s Mediterranean-inspired dining room, where post-show dinners unfold to the soundtrack of live DJs and musicians. Even later still (the glamour goes on well past midnight at Fashion Week’s many galas), return to the sanctuary of your suite or room. Italian marble bathrooms, fresh flowers and luxury linens await, an elegant and serene end to a day of boundary-pushing fashion.

Style lives here

For those hosting, showcasing or attending – this is where style stays. And our Stay Four Longer offer, with guaranteed early check-in, is the perfect way to maximise busy days and fun-filled nights during your time in London.
