In the form of a surprising announcement earlier this year, London Fashion Week revealed an upcoming move from the iconic Somerset House location as it heads to Brewer Street car park in the heart of Soho.

While we are yet to see the impact of the location on the week of shows and the annual buzz of street-style devotees, the event's show schedule remains equally impressive.
