The British Fashion Council (BFC) and London Fashion Week (LFW) have just announced the launch of their new programme, City-Wide Celebration. Taking place throughout London from Friday 18th to Tuesday 22nd February, alongside the LFW shows, City-Wide Celebration will comprise a number of different activations, from events to promotions, all in support of the LFW schedule.
The new programme is set to include parties, designer Q&As, workshops, complimentary gifts and more, all of which can be found taking place across the city in major shopping destinations such as Carnaby, Marylebone Village, Seven Dials and Soho. The various events aim to bring together over 150 different brands from the fashion context and beyond as cultural institutions, restaurants and bars are among those involved. If you want a closer look at what’s going on towards the end of the month, we’ve put together a list of some of the key events taking place so you don’t have to!
