Olivia Black Unveils SS26 Collection “Serendipity” at London Fashion Week

Olivia Black presented her catwalk show during London Fashion Week at The Dixon, 211 Tooley Street, London SE1 2JX. Guests were welcomed with drinks from 5:00PM, followed by the catwalk show at 5:30PM and networking & drinks from 6:00PM to 8:00PM.

The showcase unveiled Olivia Black’s seasonless 2026 collection, “Serendipity”, a deeply personal homage to the people, places, and experiences that have shaped her journey as a designer. For Olivia, “Serendipity” reflected the moments of chance, community, and creativity that have defined her growth, honouring mentors, collaborators, family, and friends who have sustained her vision.

Visually and conceptually, “Serendipity” drew inspiration from magpies: their distinctive black-and-white colouring and instinct for collecting treasures. Metallic accents, particularly gold, ran through the collection to symbolise richness, connection, and discovery. These details echoed Olivia’s wider philosophy of fashion as a gathering of fragments: influences, craft, and shared stories transformed into wearable statements.

The collection refined Olivia’s signature approach to elevated basics and timeless classics, offering tailored blazers, coats, trousers, dresses, skirts, and shirts designed for longevity. Each piece was crafted with sustainably sourced materials and constructed in the UK by local makers, including natural fibres and carefully selected deadstock fabrics. The brand’s recurring motif, the safety pin logo, appeared throughout, symbolising community, connection, and the seamstress legacy of Olivia’s Nana, who remains at the heart of the brand identity.
