What the Capital's Coolest Wore to London Fashion Week
And we're off! London Fashion Week has officially kicked into high gear, and the capital has been flooded with the crème de la crème of the fashion industry: editors, bloggers, buyers, and everything in between.
Naturally, team Who What Wear has been on the ground, reporting on all the latest trends (make sure to keep up with our goings-on via Instagram Stories) and playing "spot the blogger" as we travel from show to show. This year is set to be a big one. From the fur ban setting a new standard for designers and Victoria Beckham making her London debut to Alexa Chung hosting her first runway show, it's all kicking off in our beloved city.
We didn't want you to miss out on any of the action (and as we all know that, really, street style is one of the most exciting bits about fashion week), so we've done a compilation of all the best looks we've seen pounding the pavements so far. Scroll down to see what the fashion crowd are wearing right now.
Style Notes: Tamu McPherson has officially become our accessory muse for F/W 18. Rich brown and forest green make for a delectable pairing.
Style Notes: The coolest way to wear a heritage blazer now? With a hoodie layered underneath à la Billie Bhatia.
Style Notes: Layering just got taken to a new level. We'll be trying this leopard-coat-over-denim-jacket hack when the mercury drops.
Style Notes: The Who What Wear team is officially obsessed with camel blazers right now. Emily Dawes styles her slim-fit style with wide-leg jeans and white boots. Simple yet effective.
Style Notes: Sheer tops seem to be having a moment. The trick is to keep everything else covered up, as demonstrated here by Alexis Foreman.
Style Notes: Never one to disappoint with her eclectic ensembles, Vens Wife Style pulled it out the bag this fashion week with a statement snakeskin coat from Topshop.
Style Notes: We spotted Maxim Magnus in a killer patent coat and matching kick-flare trousers. Brown is officially the new black.
Style Notes: Isabella Thordsen's open-back dress is all our fall dress goals. Winter wedding, here we come.
Style Notes: Jumpsuits seem to be taking over London at the moment, and this Sézane denim number looks so chic with Loewe's saddle bag and Aeyde's heels.
Style Notes: Proof that you can wear your floaty summer frock for autumn. An oversize blazer can do wonders.
Style Notes: Model Maddie Waterhouse opted for a fashion editor classic: head-to-toe black. A subtle flash of lingerie (via her Ryan Lo blouse) is a clever move to avoid the outfit looking too flat.
Style Notes: Now this is how we want to dress all autumn long. From the color pairings to the contrasting fabrics, these outfits just work. Take note.
Style Notes: Alexa is making us rethink the bomber with this luxe oversize silk jacket. Definitely a look to try this weekend.
Style Notes: If London Fashion Week is anything to go by, dad sneakers aren't going anywhere. Jessie Bush uses her Balenciaga pair to add an urban edge to a blush-pink coat.
Style Notes: Matchy-matchy makes another appearance, but this time in green-and-blue check. Note how Alexis left her shirt half untucked for a more relaxed vibe.
Style Notes: You'd think that a pink suit would look a little too Barbie, but blogger Jessy Law kept it cool with trainers and a sporty backpack.
Style Notes: Okay, this might not be something that we'd wear to the office, but we all love a bit of OTT fashion inspo every now and then. This Halpern jumpsuit is disco-ready.
Style Notes: Who What Wear UK's Emma Spedding confirms her status as office dress aficionado with this Nanushka polka-dot frock. Her & Other Stories cardigan and Aeyde shoes are doing it for us too.
Style Notes: Clearly, the fashion set is not yet bored of corduroy. This yellow suit from Zara offers a vibrant alternative to the browns hues that are everywhere at the moment.

Style Notes: Anne-Laure Mais managed to make a pair of statement checked trousers look low-maintenance by styling with an oversize printed tee.
Style Notes: Penny Goldstone took a page from fashion history with this '70s denim co-ord. The rose-tinted sunnies were a great addition too.
Style Notes: Lucy Williams made the most of the unseasonably warm weather with a pair of tiger-print trousers (yes, animal print is sticking around) and sunny yellow tee.
Style Notes: Another case for the camel-colored blazer. Jo Ellison championed her signature pared-back aesthetic with a pair of straight-leg jeans and orange boots. Less can be more.
Style Notes: We've spotted a lot of patent around this fashion week, and this street styler got it right by pairing her patent midi skirt with a fluffy white knit and Western boots.
Style Notes: Donna Wallace turned the boilersuit trend on its head by rolling down the top half and knotting the arms. It sounds weird, but it works.
Style Notes: Anna Vitiello joined the colorful two-piece bandwagon with this '80s-inspired power suit. Those are some serious statement shoulders, but they're balanced by a nipped-in waist.
Style Notes: Three words: dream fall colors. We've seen so much green this fashion week, and it looks surprisingly good with dusty pink.
Style Notes: Print clashing is another way to work the check trend this season. Mix up colors and textures for extra impact.
Style Notes: A roll-neck jumper layered underneath a shirt is set to be our go-to layering trick this season—plus, it's so easy to re-create with pieces you already own.
Style Notes: See what we mean about the roll-neck knit? This showgoer made her summer slip dress work for autumn with white jeans and a white polo neck. So clever.
Style Notes: The dusty blue hue of this blouse is just perfection and complements the wintery tones of her checked midi skirt.
