Event: Alternative Fashion Week
Date: April 20th to 24th
Those who do not like the big crowds of London Fashion Week can attend the smaller Alternative Fashion Week.
Running in Spitalfields Market from April 20th to 24th, the event offers unique clothes from alternative designers on a more personal scale than the main event.
Up-and-coming fashion stars will showcase their work, with some local colleges and art schools also displaying their wares.
Around 12 designers take to the catwalk each day, showcasing a variety of products, from clothes and shoes to accessories and underwear.
Those who get their fill of the models can shop at the nearby stalls or stop for a spot of lunch in the market.
Once the bags are filled and the feet are weary, fashionistas can lay down their head at the luxury London hotel the Montague on the Gardens.
The hotel, which is in a quiet location, also offers the It's Showtime package, which gives theatre tickets, dinner before the event and a full English breakfast.
