On 19 September 2026 I showed my collection, The Rebel Equinox: Cult of the Bloom, at London Fashion Week with House of iKons. Months of designing, body casting, moulding, sewing and fitting came down to a few minutes on one runway, and I’m still taking it in.

Every look on that runway was designed, made and styled by me. There was no casting call: every model but one came from my Creative Connections community, the network of creatives I’ve built over the last three years. When I get an opportunity, the people I work with get it too, and for some of them this was their first chance to walk at London Fashion Week. The one exception was Oana Florina (@oana.florina.model), who stepped in when a model cancelled. The show must go on, and she was amazing. I fitted every one of them myself. Here’s the show, look by look, from the footage I and the people around me captured on the night.

Through the Lens

So many talented photographers captured the show. Some of them, including Andrew Llewellyn, Kevin Blake, Nathan and Alan Brace, are part of my Creative Connections community too and came to shoot the show for me. Here are a few favourites from each photographer.

Walking Out

Then it was my turn. Walking out at the end of my own show at London Fashion Week is something I’ll never forget.

On the Red Carpet

Before and after the show, Cynthia and Felicia spoke to Dbling on the red carpet about wearing the collection.

Thank You

To my models, who trusted me with their bodies, their time and their energy, and stood by me: thank you. To my photographers, who gave their time and talent to capture it all: thank you. To everyone who supported the journey, came to the show or shared a post: thank you. This is only the beginning.
