The Best Haircut Trends From London Fashion Week Street Style
London Fashion Week is back once again — and that means street style. As only the trendiest flood the city’s thoroughfares, you’ll no doubt be captivated by the traffic-stopping outfits, from block-colour leather to slip skirts. But it’s fair to say that we’re most interested in the Instagram-worthy haircuts.
This year we’ve seen the ‘Sachel’ (a cross between the messy shag and the layered cut inspired by Rachel from Friends), not to mention the Italian bob (chunky-ended and worn in your hair’s natural wave) and the bottleneck bob (a classic bob with streamlined curtain bangs). But you can always rely on street stylers to serve up the latest, most innovative hair movements (and you can bet they’ll take over salons imminently).
Click ahead for all the hair inspiration you’ll ever need, straight from LFW SS23.

Spotted at Bora Aksu, this style is reminiscent of the ‘Sachel’, which occupies a cosy space between the messy shag and the layered Rachel cut, inspired by Rachel from Friends. The wavy full fringe makes it.

We’re into the slightly wet look, too. Photo by Neil Mockford/Getty ImagesThis is proof you can’t beat a blunt bob. The centre parting is classic but the mussed up texture over a super straight finish hauls it out of the ’90s and into 2022.

This rounded bob haircut spotted on a street styler outside the Fashion East show is beautiful.

Think heavy, face-framing layers that graze the lips or jawline and are disconnected from the rest of the hair. Teamed with a high ponytail, this cut is equal parts modern and classic.Photo by Neil Mockford/GC ImagesIf street style is anything to go by, long layers are here to stay. Presenter, model and fashion ambassador Isabella Charlotta Poppius has peppered hers with very subtle lighter strands, or what London’s colourists are calling ‘hair frosting’.
