It’s a British summer so who can tell whether we’ll need to trundle along with a brolly and a jumper or, we should be packing Alex from Glasto bucket hats.
However, as of now it’s looking really good with some serious scorchers ahead of us. London’s spoilt for choice this year with a ton of classics being shown across the capital so take your pick.
