You may recall Vivienne Westwood, John Galliano, and Alexander McQueen. These are just a few of the British designers who have rewritten fashion's rule book over the last half century, and all of them had their start in London and this year marks the 25th anniversary of the capital's fashion week.

To mark the big anniversary, the British Fashion Council has invited back some of its most successful designers: Burberry, Pringle, Jonathan Saunders, and Victoria Beckham's favorite Antonio Berardi are among those who answered the call.

London Fashion Week started out as a small gathering of dedicated fashion designers and trend makers in a car park in west London. Now, the event has grown into an extravaganza that channels 28-million US Dollars bi-annually into the British capital's economy.

For this 25th anniversary year, London Fashion Week moves to its new venue, Somerset House, from its home over the past few years, the Natural History Museum in west London.

The event kicked off on Friday.
