A number of 30-minute Q&A sessions have been scheduled to take place over the six-day event, with tweeters able to talk to guests including Fashion 2012 Menswear chair Dylan Jones and designers Anya Hindmarch and Alice Temperley.
In other London Fashion Week news, the British Fashion Council (BFC) today declared model and presenter Alexa Chung a BFC Young Style Ambassador.
The model will be raising awareness of Britain's top creators. She joins models Poppy Delevigne and Laura Bailey, who are Young Ambassador and Cultural Ambassador respectively.
"I adore fashion and am proud that it's now officially my job to champion those London designers both new and established that inspire me so much," she explained in a release.
London Fashion Week will run until February 21, with menswear on February 22. Shows from the likes of Roksanda Ilincic and Mary Katrantzou will be live-streamed via London Fashion Week TV. Visit www.londonfashionweeklive.co.uk for details.
