Burberry’s London Fashion Week show proves a footballers’ hot spot as Leah Williamson joins Curtis Jones, Morgan Rogers and Eberechi Eze
A raft of top stars from the men’s and women’s game descended on London on Monday evening to take in Burberry’s Autumn/Winter 2026 show, which served as the crescendo for this season’s London Fashion Week.
The storied British house hosted its show at Old Billingsgate Market, the former fish market in the City, the venue dotted with puddles for the models to walk through, clustered around a small replica of the Tower of London.
Against the backdrop of the classically English scene, it was fitting that a number of the country’s international stars were there to take in the show, with Lionesses captain Leah Williamson leading the charge.
A frequent brand ambassador for the house, Williamson sported a pale pink silk bomber jacket and brown leather trousers as she posed with fellow England international, Liverpool’s Curtis Jones.
Jones sported one of the brand’s leather overcoats on top of a shirt pattered with Burberry’s signature check, while his partner Saffie Khan wore a cropped twist on the iconic trench coat.
The 25-year-old also bumped into fellow Premier League stars Eberechi Eze and Morgan Rogers, who were seated next to each other on the front row.

Eze, who was wearing a two-tone silk bomber, has been a long-term representative of the brand, even sporting one of their bespoke suits for his June wedding.
The Arsenal forward’s lavish celebration of his marriage to his childhood sweetheart Naima Corbin appeared in the pages of British Vogue – which likely explains why he appeared to be getting on well with his seatmate on his other side, the magazine’s Head of Editorial Content Chioma Nnadi.
Both Jones and Eze were riding high after a profitable weekend, with both Liverpool and Arsenal successful in Premier League action.
But while the Liverpool defender would have had a more nervous time of it as the Reds escaped with a last-gasp win against Nottingham Forest, Eze enjoyed another north London derby rout.

The former Crystal Palace star again featured on the scoresheet after terrorising Tottenham at the Emirates last year, as Mikel Arteta’s side beat their hosts by the same 4-1 scoreline months later.
For Rogers, Monday’s excursion might have provided a respite from the grind of top-flight football, after Aston Villa could take a point from their cagey draw with resurgent Leeds.
