See Charlie Constantinou’s FW25 Collection at London Fashion Week

At London Fashion Week, where the brightest talents give us the best of fashion, Charlie Constantinou is right up that alley. Season 4.5 marks a new chapter in his designs—one where clothing isn’t just about aesthetics, but about storytelling and survival.

Picking up where Season 4 left off, Constantinou shifts his focus from the sun-scorched Sahara to the mysteries of its nights—where temperatures plunge, landscapes shift, and everything takes on a new energy. “I wanted to explore the contrast,” he explains. “How the same place can feel completely different just hours apart. The warm tones of day fading into the cooler shades of night.”

The collection plays with this duality, manipulating deadstock fabrics through dyeing, screen printing, and garment treatments that give even the lightest materials the structure of outerwear. Knitwear takes on new textures, combining density with stretch for pieces that feel both sculptural and functional.

One of the season’s biggest highlights is Constantinou’s collaboration with ECCO Leather, developed through 1Granary. Together, they’ve used leather in various ways, experimenting with raw silk fusion, perforation techniques that mimic stretch mesh, and embossed textures inspired by the desert. “It was about experimenting,” Constantinou says. “Taking something familiar and making it unexpected.”

His ongoing collaborations also take center stage—his work with Demon Footwear incorporates ECCO’s leather innovations, while London-based jewelry designer Octi adds an organic, raw energy to the collection. Even the beauty direction strips things back: no makeup, just a skincare routine powered by Icelandic brand BIOEFFECT. “I wanted it to feel real,” Constantinou says. “No filters, just healthy, luminous skin.”
