Source Fashion has announced acclaimed British designer Scott Henshall as the headline act for its July 2026 catwalk.
Henshall will present a curated showcase spanning archival pieces from his celebrated career, alongside new collaborations with London-based womenswear brand House of Kind and sustainable fashion label Coco Beau London.
His collection will take centre stage, while curated trend scenes highlight commercially relevant pieces from across the show floor. Together, this format offers buyers a dynamic, real-time view of how design innovation and responsible sourcing come together in practice.
“Bringing Scott Henshall to the Source Fashion catwalk as our headline designer creates a fantastic moment for the show. Scott’s involvement continues to build the calibre and relevance of our catwalk programme and reflects exactly what Source is about, connecting design, creativity and production in a way that is both purpose-led and commercially relevant," said Suzanne Ellingham, Event Director of Source Fashion.
"The catwalk is designed to inspire, but also to demonstrate what is possible when the right partnerships come together. By showcasing this collection alongside trend-led edits from our exhibitors, we are giving our community a clear, tangible view of how ideas can translate into product. It’s about bridging the gap between concept and creation, showcasing what is possible today in responsible design and production. Purpose and profitable collections really can go hand in hand.”
Alongside his catwalk showcase, Henshall will also feature in Source Fashion’s content programme, offering further insight into his career and latest collaborations. He is widely regarded as one of the UK’s most influential designers, having debuted at London Fashion Week as its youngest ever on-schedule designer.
He later became the youngest Creative Director of Mulberry, helping to reposition the brand for a new generation, and has since built a global reputation, dressing high-profile clients including Madonna, Kylie Minogue and Victoria Beckham.
Speaking on the upcoming showcase, Scott Henshall was excited to be part of Source Fashion this July.
"I’ve attended many trade shows, but none compare to Source as a true one-stop destination for manufacturing," he said.
"It gives brands and designers the ability to plan, prepare and present under one roof, saving time while building valuable global connections. It’s a powerful platform for both emerging and established businesses to grow, evolve and discover new opportunities.”
House of Kind
The collaboration with House of Kind marked a significant moment for the London-based womenswear brand, which has quickly gained recognition for its purpose-driven approach to modern workwear.
“At House of Kind, everything we do starts with purpose. We are building a community of supportive women through fashion, challenging industries that have traditionally felt like old-boys’ clubs, and reframing femininity as power," said Sonica Beckmann, Founder and CEO of House of Kind.
"Working with Scott felt like a natural fit, not only because he is an acclaimed British designer, but because of who he is. He has achieved incredible success, yet remains grounded in kindness, with a genuine desire to make the industry better. That ethos aligns closely with everything we stand for as a brand."
Launching this collaboration at Source Fashion is a significant moment for House of Kind.
Coco Beau London
The catwalk will also feature a new collaboration between Henshall and Coco Beau London, a brand championing ethical transparency and sustainable innovation. The collection has been created using recycled materials and reflects a shared commitment to responsible fashion and accessible design.
"Partnering with Scott felt like a natural fit because he genuinely believes that fashion should not be an ivory tower; it is for all. This aligns perfectly with our mission to make ethically sourced, high-quality fashion accessible and impactful," said Jacquelyn Cole, CEO of Coco Beau London.
"Showcasing this collection at Source Fashion is a powerful opportunity to demonstrate that high-end style and ethical responsibility are inseparable. It’s not just about the aesthetic, but about driving meaningful change and supporting initiatives such as our work with the Sea Turtle Foundation.”
The Source Fashion catwalk will take place three times daily at its new home, Excel London, showcasing responsibly produced collections, trend-led designs and commercially relevant products from across the show floor. Registration will open shortly.
