M&S celebrates a century of style with its first-ever catwalk show - and you can shop the chic collection now
The 59 runway looks are available to buy - and half of them are under £50
Continuing its phenomenal run of success, M&S celebrated 100 years of dressing the nation today, with a runway show at London Fashion Week. And what an impressive presentation it was - you'd never guess it was high street and not designer.
Models included Lara Stone, Jodie Kidd and Erin O'Connor, whilst glamorous guests such as Dame Joan Collins, Jessie Ware, David Gandy, Katherine Jenkins, Jamie Redknapp and Kelly Hoppen watched on from the front row.
The show is being streamed on the British clothing brand's website at 6pm tonight, but the 100 Years of Fashion collection is already available to buy, so if you're worried about missing out, don't wait to watch the show. The outerwear was my personal highlight up close - from Lara Stone's white coat with faux fur cuffs to Erin O'Connor, who immediately made me want a puffer coat. The party season-ready tailoring and dresses were beautifully made, and the good news is the prices aren't any higher than you'd normally expect from M&S. In fact, half of the collection is less than £50.

Bomber jackets are big news for autumn/winter 2026, and you can bet your bottom dollar this one will sell out soon. The satin finish looks so premium, and the funnel neck is very on trend.
This suit was a standout look from the show for me. The pleats in the trousers moved beautifully, and the contrast lapels on the double breasted blazer reminded me of Bella Freud suits I've coveted over the years.
The herringbone tweed fabric is perfect for colder weather, and whilst these pieces work best worn together, you can mix things up by teaming the trousers with cosy knitwear, too.
A sharp blazer will work seriously hard when you're coming up with autumn outfit ideas. The wide satin lapels really elevate this tuxedo. Bravo, M&S!
I love leather trousers as an alternative to jeans at this time of year. They add textural interest when worn with knitwear, and these have a stretchy, elasticated waistband. What's not to love?
Though this was just a simple white shirt? Think again. It's got padded shoulders and a fitted waist to create a curvy silhouette. Power dressing at its best.
I haven't stopped thinking about this coat since I saw it on the runway. Sure, white might not be the most practical choice for a coat... but that's why M&S invented those clever stain removing wipes, right? The cuffs are sold separately, so you get another polished coat style by removing them.
Faux fur is one of the biggest trends we're seeing for autumn/winter 2026, and these versatile cuffs can revamp any coat you add them to. As M&S says, these are "proof that the smallest additions can carry the biggest impact on a look."
Regular readers will know I can't resist a bit of leopard print, so of course these were first in my basket. The high vamp shape is an upgrade to plain old ballet flats, and there are some half sizes available, so you can find your perfect fit. These have already got a positive review from one customer, who wrote: "Felt very comfortable when trying on"
This was another statement style on the runway. I truly think this kimono jacket, paired with leather trousers, is a dream combination for any occasion in the run-up to Christmas.
This very Chloe-esque dress is something I can see Sienna Miller wearing. Isn't it stunning? Pair it with knee-high leather boots and the shawl collar jacket below. I still can't believe it's only £120!
Just watch as this flies off the virtual shelves. According to the website it's "ut to a relaxed fit that layers easily, it's finished with a soft shawl collar, button fastening, full lining and long sleeves for extra warmth through the colder months. It carries the kind of history that can't be faked, and only grows richer with every wear.
Erin O'Connor walked down the runway in this, and suddenly I was excited for the cold weather to kick in. The perfect mix of practical yet stylish, this feather and down coat is well worth £180.
This skirt ticked all my boxes - trending polka dots, razor-sharp pleats and a bit of drama courtesy of the asymmetric hem. Team it with chunky knitwear and boots by day, switching to a camisole and heels for date night outfits.
I can see this being a bit hit for the Christmas party season. The floral motif looks very high-end, and the shape is very flattering. There's also a skirt in the same print, if you'd prefer.
I told you the outerwear was particularly good! This parka will be your go-to throughout the colder months, and like the satin bomber jacket, the funnel neckline brings it bang up to date for 2026.
The ideal jacket for this tricky in-between weather, I love the fun bubble hem on this bomber jacket. There were a lot of pops of tomato red shown on the runway, so pair yours with striking red knitwear.
The cape design of this dress is incredibly flattering, and you can either style it up as it is on the model, or go pared-back on the accessories front for minimalist sophistication.
Maddy Evans, Director of M&S Women’s, said: “Bringing M&S to the London Fashion Week stage for the first time is a landmark moment in our fashion story, and we're excited for people everywhere to experience the show through the stream and shop the collection online immediately after it debuts on the runway.
"As we celebrate 100 years since M&S began selling clothing, our in-house design team immersed themselves in the archive, reimagining some of the pieces that have shaped our fashion legacy. From sharp tailoring inspired by heritage tuxedos and tweed suiting, to archival floral prints and reworked white shirts, every piece has been thoughtfully reinterpreted for today. While these archival references provide a rich thread of authenticity and design credibility throughout the collection, they sit alongside a broader fashion vision that is modern, relevant and effortlessly wearable. The result is a collection that honours our heritage while showcasing the style, quality and value that continue to define M&S today.”
