Another season of London Fashion Week has come to a close and top fashion brands are embracing social media more than ever.

Being talked about on social media is incredibly valued by the likes of Topshop and Burberry, so it is no surprise they topped the list of most tweeted about designers. According to Hotwires analysis Burberry soared ahead of other designers with 21,958 tweets about their spring/summer 2015 collection. Burberry created many fashion talking points as the more famous the model the less time she spends on the catwalk, Kate Moss and Cara Delevingne sat front row at the Burberry show creating an exciting stir before the show even started. Burberry kept their 3.15m followers up-to-date with video, tweets in addition to streaming their show live. Twitter teamed up with Burberry to create their own “BUY” button on the social media site in which their followers were able to buy the limited edition nail polish used on the models.

Topshop came second with 9,108 tweets. More than 7,600 tweets were posted before the show was underway making it the most anticipated show of this London Fashion Week. Topshop created a social catwalk in collaboration with Facebook giving their users an exclusive peak into pieces not see on the catwalk. Tom Ford came third in Hotwires most tweeted list with 4,165 mentions of his show. Tom Ford‘s previous shows were top secret, no mobile phones and certainly no social media were permitted however, this season Tom Ford‘s show was live streamed so those not at the event could enjoy the show as it was presented.

Marchesa which celebrated its tenth anniversary at the weekend is placed at fourth in the list with 3,933 tweets. The show was opened and closed by model Georgia May Jagger. The brand normally showcase at New York Fashion Week where their studio is based but relocated to London for the one season as part of their anniversary celebration. Julien Macdonald followed closely behind with 3,889 tweets about his spring/summer collection. The venue for the collection was The Royal Opera House and Millie Mackintosh, Abbey Clancy and Laura Whitmore sat front row.
