Kate Moss, Barry Keoghan and Daisy Edgar-Jones lead Burberry London Fashion Week arrivals

All-look leather and reworked trench coats reigned supreme on the red carpet at Burberry’s London Fashion Week show, where arrivals leaned heavily into the house’s most iconic codes.

It quickly became clear that the unofficial dress code was leather – and plenty of it – with Burberry’s classic trench reimagined in every possible silhouette, from cropped and caped to floor-sweeping and wet-look shine.

Leading the charge was Kate Moss, 52, who stepped out in a simple navy slip dress layered beneath a classic black midi coat, sheer tights and pointed heels. Effortlessly understated, the look evoked the 90s minimalism Moss is famed for.

Her daughter Lila Moss, 23, offered a softer take in a cream tweed coat cinched with a black silk belted sash, playing with texture by pairing the nubby fabric and fluid silk with snake-print pumps and a black leather clutch.

Leather seemed to be the go-to, with actress Daisy Edgar-Jones, 27, wearing a maxi black leather trench layered over a interlocking-disc maxi dress from Burberry’s previous collection, balancing drama and heritage.

Among the men, Irish actor Barry Keoghan, 33, leaned into British heritage codes in a plum check jacket, styled with black leather gloves and a coordinating flat cap – a modern twist on country classics.

Lil Simz delivered one of the strongest leather moments of the night in a cropped black leather trench coat, worn over a sweeping olive green maxi skirt. A lime green checked shirt peeked through at the collar, adding a very welcome jolt of colour among the attendees.

Skepta, 43, kept things pared back underneath – a crisp white T-shirt and indigo jeans – but turned up the volume with a vibrant lime green leather bomber jacket.

Footballer Leah Williamson, 28, also opted for a bomber silhouette, choosing a lilac silk version styled with chocolate brown cigarette trousers and beige pointed pumps.

Iris Law, 25, channelled Burberry’s playful side in a disco-style mini dress from the brand’s last collection, topped with a cropped trench and finished with burgundy knee-high riding boots.

Of course if there was one unifying theme beyond leather, it was the trench itself. Celebrities repeatedly returned to Burberry’s most iconic silhouette, each putting their own spin on it.

Alexa Chung, 42, embraced high-shine in a mini, wet-look plum leather trench worn with sharp black stilettos.

Simone Ashley, 30, opted for a similarly cut chocolate brown leather mini trench, keeping the focus on clean lines with classic black heels.

Pixie Geldof, 35, made a statement in an oversized, floor-length black leather trench that swept the pavement for maximum drama.

On the men’s front, Luke Thompson, 37, kept things understated in a checked shirt and navy tailored trousers, layered beneath a cropped trench.

Model Mia Regan, 23, whose ex-boyfriend Romeo Beckham was walking in the show, took a more traditional route in a mid-length black trench paired with a grey dress and Burberry check pumps – a subtle nod to the house’s heritage print.

While Nicky Hilton, 42, offered a more modern interpretation of the classic beige trench, wearing it in a cropped cape format styled with flared denim and a mini top-handle bag.

These red carpet looks showcased just how versatile Burberry’s heritage silhouettes are.
