London Fashion Week is gaining more international attention, thanks to the efforts of Laura Weir at the British Fashion Council. The party scene during the fall 2026 collections is just as lively and diverse as the fashion showcased on the runways and the streets of the bustling capital.
One of the standout events during the week was the intimate cocktail party hosted by Parisian label Alfie at the Browns boutique on Brook Street. The event celebrated the continued partnership between Alfie and Browns, as well as the launch of the brand’s spring collection titled âA Quiet Unfolding.â The collection featured a blend of diaphanous organza and utilitarian cotton twill, showcasing Alfie’s signature duality in fabrics and craftsmanship. Structured skirts paired with airy blouses exuded a sense of romance and sophistication that has attracted celebrities like Hailey Bieber to the brand.
Founder of Alfie, Alice Fresnel, expressed her gratitude for the support from the UK market, which was Alfie’s first market. She highlighted the natural resonance with British customers who appreciate the brand’s fusion of masculine and feminine elements in their designs. The partnership with Browns and the celebration of their third season in London marked a significant milestone in Alfie’s global expansion.
At the event, guests were seen wearing Alfie’s popular silhouettes, such as the sleek open-backed top in an oyster shade and the wide pocketed pencil skirt. The evening brought together friends of the brand and local creatives, including Kyra Kennedy, Timmy Malkoun, Jordan Grant, Patricia Manfield, and Coco Schiffer. French wines provided by Quill Wine Bar added to the sophisticated atmosphere, while a DJ set by Isabella Massenet kept the energy high throughout the night.
The party at Browns boutique was a testament to Alfie’s refined and cosmopolitan designs, as well as a celebration of the brand’s growth and success in the global fashion industry. As London Fashion Week continues to attract a diverse and vibrant crowd, events like the one hosted by Alfie contribute to the city’s reputation as a hub for creativity and innovation in the fashion world.
