London Fashion Week welcomed back Burberry from Milan with open arms; and Burberry couldn’t have ended London’s Fashion Week any better.
Burberry, established in 1856, has come a long way since the days they offered England a comfortable yet waterproof fabric for riding, shooting and other country pursuits!
Burberry are most famous for the Trench Coat, which was invented in 1914 after they were asked to adapt a design for practical wear by WWI officers in the trenches. The likes of Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany’s made trenchcoats look unforgettably chic... Well, Audrey Hepburn could make anything look chic...even soaking wet in the rain!Creative Director, Christopher Bailey, has created a Spring/Summer 2010 collection aimed at the young – keeping the brand modern and trendy.
The front row of the last show in London was occupied by glamourous fashionistas – Face of Burberry Emma Watson, Mary-Kate Olsen, Daisy Lowe, Victoria Beckham, Gwyneth Paltrow, Freida Pinto and Dev Patel.
The Burberry trenchcoats for S/S 2010 are so beautifully amazing: Classic Burberry gone shorter!
