London Fashion Week



Burberry SS18
Fashion Show











Burberry tore up the runway during London Fashion Week with a bold and creative take on their SS18 collection. The collection was showcased at an old East London Court House with distressed walls, royal glass doors and grand Chandeliers, the perfect fit for the fashion house. The runway show featured an array of ensembles including the infamous Burberry Mac which included the Burberry trademark print along with some amazing new colours including white, pinks and blue plastic fabrics perfect for the summer. The collection also featured a multitude of colours including a blast of aqua tones, greens tones, reds, light pinks and cream tones against the variant of clothing that cascaded down the runway such as dresses, flared trousers, slim fit trousers, pencil skirts and mini skirts tailored coats and over-sized sleeves also played a part in the show. With a blend of fabrics from plastic and knitted materials to furs and lace the contracts and mixed blend of textures really played into the geek chi'c feel of the vibrant and effervescent collection. Burberry designer Christopher Bailey was quoted as saying " There’s quite a lot of noise today, I  wanted there to be a certain rawness to the collection and was inspired by the pictures, and in particular the working class, gritty, Northern images. I like the grandeur. This building, I think, represents what we are trying to say in the collection, there’s a little bit of grandeur, but also something that’s a bit broken down with age." The collection took on a quirky, preppy punk style taking a different direction from what we are used to seeing from the fashion house. Burberry really did excel with the new SS18 collection not only breaking the typical mold but creating something which is truly unique and fashion forward yet wearable.
