Last week, Topshop and ELLE teamed up at Topshop’s London HQ to host an intimate summer styling event for members of the ELLE community and a hand-picked group of creators.
Designed to celebrate the launch of Topshop’s Spring Summer 2026 collection, English Garden, the event brought together fashion, culture and community in a way that felt distinctly Topshop. Guests were treated to a live panel hosted by ELLE’s editors Tamison O’Connor and Julia Storm, exploring how trends move from the runway and wider culture into everyday wardrobes.
The talk spotlighted key trends to watch, including graphic tees, puff pieces, stripes, occasion tailoring, soft focus materials and fringe. Julia’s hero piece was the balloon pant, while Tamison leaned into bold red styling, finished with silver accessories. Alongside the panel, attendees had the chance to get up close with the new collection through curated rails of standout pieces and a relaxed, community-led styling experience. The evening created a strong moment for the brand — blending editorial authority, creator influence and product in an engaging and highly shareable way.
It was a brilliant example of Topshop continuing to show up in culture and connect with audiences through memorable, fashion-first experiences. By partnering with ELLE, we combine editorial authority with design leadership to drive the conversations that define contemporary style
A special shoutout to Elise Imray for leading on this execution - from steaming clothes, to QR codes, to organising the branded elements that make all the difference... Elise had her hands all over this, and delivered a great event. Please join me in saying well done!
