London Fashion Week concluded with Burberry, but it was the Simone Rocha x Adidas collaboration that dominated headlines and social media feeds. The Irish designer debuted a 60-piece autumn/winter collection at Alexandra Palace, blending her whimsical aesthetic with sportswear silhouettes.
The collection featured signature Adidas pieces reimagined with frills, lace, and pearls. Track tops with puff sleeves were layered under lace petticoats, trainers had red and white ribbon laces, and tiny stripe shorts were paired with crystals and ruffles. The collaboration logo merges Simone Rocha’s ribbon motif with Adidas’s Trefoil, offering a romantic take on sportswear iconography.
While the exact launch date, pricing, and full product range remain under wraps, the showcase gave a strong preview. The partnership underscores the enduring trend of sports-fashion collaborations, with Adidas’s track tops and shorts already a cool-girl staple.
Other notable moments at LFW included Topshop and Tolu Coker’s 18-piece capsule, Karoline Vitto and Pull & Bear’s size-inclusive collaboration, and Erdem’s 20th-anniversary reunion with Barbour. Harris Reed debuted bridalwear, and Sinead Gorey recreated a British pub on the runway.
