On the evening of Saturday 17 October 2026, the Hôtel Le Royal Luxembourg in Luxembourg-Ville hosted the eighth edition of Luxembourg Fashion Week.
The event is a platform for showcasing fashion and creativity in Luxembourg, helping designers present their work and bringing the country's fashion scene to a wider audience.
At the beginning of the evening attendees gathered in the foyer to take the opportunity to mix with Luxembourg’s fashion community, show off their sartorial choices for the event and have their photos taken.
Although distinctly smaller than equivalent events such as Paris Fashion Week, around 300 guests, including Deputy Mayor of Luxembourg City Maurice Bauer, packed the main room where they were treated to two sets of catwalk presentations, featuring pieces from the event’s thirteen featured designers.
The evening was hosted by Elise Bautista, who emphasised the vision of Luxembourg Fashion Week was to bring together creators, fashion houses, brands, institutions and international partners with the purpose of supporting talent, encouraging excellence and promoting fashion in Luxembourg.
“Luxembourg Fashion Week encourages exchanges with the different actors of the fashion industry and creates opportunities for collaboration, development and visibility. The event honours creativity, know-how, but also promotes dialogue, between tradition, innovation and sustainable development and contributes to strengthen the position of Luxembourg as an emerging actor of fashion in Europe,” said Elise Bautista.
Luxembourg-based designer Karim Meguellati was then invited to speak and showcase his Career Award, which was recently presented to him at the World Fashion Festival Awards in Milan, where he officially represented the Grand Duchy of Luxembourg.
On the experience, the French-born designer remarked: “I had a lot of emotions, a lot of intensity, always, when we present our creations. But above all, representing a country is even stronger. It was a bit like Eurovision. It was very special.”
Designers from Luxembourg, France, Belgium and Argentina then showcased their work on the catwalk, showcasing a wide range of styles featuring traditional designs, experimental and deconstructed/reconstructed silhouettes, manipulated fabrics and, for the first time at the event, lingerie, reflecting the theme for this year’s event, “No Limits”.
Highlights included Luxembourg designer Nancy Schroeder-Zwank’s Color by Naz collection, which brought vibrant embroidery and painted details to the runway; Belgium’s Valérie Gilson’s Gilson V Couture designs featured deconstructed suits, exaggerated leisurewear and textured leathers; Luxembourg-based Sabine Lehot’s capsule collaboration with boutique Eriselda Hoxha Couture supplied sixties flair with a mix of Chanel-esque chic and Twiggy-style fun; Natalija Lalic Jovanovic’s French couture brand Petit Atelier de Nathalie displayed decadent bridal styles with bouquets of chiffon and sparkling details; Argentina’s Ana Loyarte’s lingerie collection was bold and daring but undeniably classy; and Belgian designer Kani’s Manikani designselevated knitwear to high-fashion with a variety of confident, high-necked and hooded pieces.
There also featured presentations of pieces from labels Nœms, Amaro Amore, Alimac, Rasha Sawas, MINH NGNs, GalleriaKevin and Silbernadel Couture before the official afterparty brought the event to a close at the Hôtel Le Royal’s piano bar.
