C O N T E N T S

Welcome to another issue of London Runway – this time, our Green Issue, as we celebrate (like we always do) the sustainable designers out there who are protecting our planet whilst also making us look good

This month we have a whole host of London Fashion Week content for you to devour, with galleries galore from last month’s spectacular If you haven’t seen your favourite LFW designer, don’t worry – you may have missed some if you didn’t pick up last month’s issue, and we have plenty more coming next time out as well

We’ve also got a couple of in-house editorials here this month, which is always exciting! They feature Ana Julia and Julie, who were our runners-up in the Face of London Runway (you’ll see more from another of our runners-up, Raphael, in our next issue). These photoshoots were accomplished with the help of the DFMA makeup academy, and were done on a tight schedule – we shot them on the same day as our Face of London Runway semi-final, as all of these competitors had to get back to their home countries as soon as we were done!

Before I let you get on with the rest of the issue, we’re about to announce some big changes coming to London Runway I won’t spill all the details now, but suffice to say, 2024 is going to be BIG We’re changing the way we release the issues, changing the format a bit, and - here’s the bit you’ll be most excited about - making our issues much bigger, too More pages and more features!

We’re also tightening our mission statement a bit After almost seven years in business, we’ve spent a lot of time thinking about the features that work and don’t work, the content that we enjoy creating and sharing and the stuff that feels too much like work. We’ve also taken into account your feedback over the past years, on our social media nts and directly from our orators

I’m quite excited about the changes to come, and we’ll also be welcoming a new team member before long, too

If you want to learn more about these big shifts in our approach, make sure that you pick up the next issue We’re going to be spilling all the tea on what to expect from London Runway in 2024, and I think you’re going to be just as excited as we are

In the meantime, we’re wrapping things up for 2023 - which means our very last advertising opportunities at the current price, our last feature opportunities for any models, photographers, or designers until 2024, and a farewell to some of the competitions and events we’ve run over the years

We’d normally be announcing the London Runway Sustainability Awards in this issue, but we’ve decided to let it go as we move into the new era - making way for something even better Until next time
