Daniel Lee’s Burberry has been met with a pretty wide variation of reviews over the last few seasons, with the majority of fashion fans either loving or hating it. But for Fall/Winter 2026, something felt different.
Lee presented Burberry’s latest collection during London Fashion Week last night and the palpable energy in the room seemed to signal one thing and one thing only: everyone was on board.
As always, the collection harked back to the brand’s London-centric roots, acting as an ode to “going out in a particularly London way,” according to Lee.
“We all walk the same roads. We’re all lit by the same streetlamps. We all feel the same buzz of the city at night.”
The collection presented a slew of Burberry characters, each stepping out in their own way, dressed in winter-ready layers that signal endless possibilities. Transitioning from its previous countryside-inspired season into the night, FW26 delivered a confident colour story, elevated outerwear, and of course, seasonal updates of the brand’s ever-classic trench coat.
In keeping with the brand’s evolving British cast, Romeo Beckham walked the runway this season alongside Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, with the show soundtracked by London-based musician FKA twigs and DJ Benji B.
