If you ever need a reminder that the future of fashion is in extremely capable (and chaotic) hands, look no further than the University of Westminster’s BA Fashion Design Class of 2025. Their graduate collections debuted on Friday, June 13 at London’s Ambika P3—and as expected, it wasn’t just a runway. It was a reset.

This annual show has carved out a cult following in the London fashion scene, consistently turning out bold, unfiltered visions that push way past the polish of commercial fashion week fare. And this year? It doubled down. From visceral storytelling to outfit-as-architecture moments, the Class of 2025 came with something to say—and the technical range to back it up.

Westminster’s grads have form. Remember when the uni opened London Fashion Week in 2023? Yeah. That same energy pulsed through this year’s show, with collections that felt part protest, part personal diary, and part experimental film still. Think: dismembered tailoring, dystopian romance, oversized puff volumes, club kid escapism, new-age minimalism, and silhouettes that made you squint (in a good way).

Each look felt like it came from a brain that’s spent the last three years trying to out-design the apocalypse. And somehow, it worked.

Notable standouts included Xiaoting Chen’s precision draping, Angelika Deopante’s anatomical tailoring, and KJ Tantivachyanon’s sculptural forms. Paris Otuyelu, Rachel Ahonaruogho, and Misa Ricchiuti brought cultural hybridity into focus, while Lily Rose Murphy and Rosa Bonner-Morgan reminded us that sometimes the loudest look is the one that dares to be delicate.

And yes—the casting, styling, and staging all snapped. From the music to the motion, everything felt intentional, yet refreshingly unvarnished. These weren’t just student collections—they were thesis statements with seams.

So what do you do after watching 30+ designers drop graduate collections this rich in visual language? You screenshot. You obsess. You start thinking about what they’ll do next. Because if this is Westminster’s Class of 2025, then fashion’s future is looking deeply strange—and seriously exciting.
