A great opening for London Fashion Week, with Tisci for Burberry, which offers, in the heart of the forest and under the sign of romantic escape, a mixed, attractively composed and recomposed collection that explores the brand’s emblematic codes and artisanal creation.
Burberry
This edition is clearly positioned in a GENDER NEUTRAL way. The men’s, women’s and mixed collections are now presented with the same approach for the coming seasons. But let’s not forget what has characterized London fashion over the years, this good share of nostalgia and eclecticism, this unique creative mix that rebrands the Spring/Summer 21 collections again, even in these times of pandemic. The watchword remains Tasteless! Shocking! Classless!
RED ALERT
Like a signal red to a hyper-vitamin orange, the ultra bright intensity bright scarlet colors give confidence to the look whatever her style, tayloring street, chic-loungewear or urban-sporty.
EARTH TONES
From rich colors with spicy essences to argillaceous, oxidized, scorched or browned earths express a naturalness with a no gender look or an experimental artisanal look.
CREATIVE UPCYCLING
Recomposition, new combinations, outdoor and accessories become an endless playground to create hybrid products, the trench 2 in 1 or repurposed denim and cotton fabrics. The accessory with its maximized braided decor singularizes a neo-workwear look or sublimates in trompe l’oeil the kraft in a natural leather very simply cut.
UNUSUAL PATCHWORK
Fragmented, cut out, assembled in layering, floral or geometric patterns combine in the diversity of new investments and uses at the encounter with art, the abstract graffiti motifs, puzzle spirit, with gestures Dripping spirit Pollock, experiment the white canvas.
STRICTO SENSUAL
With a 70’s look that is both structured and more languorous, defining a silhouette in a total coordinated or mismatched suit look, favoring Eph’s maxi lengths, stretch denim, suede, satin, with trompe l’oeil printing.
REMINISCENCE PAST / PRESENT / FUTURE
Hints of nostalgia take us into another world, a classicism of the 18th century where the attributes of the romantic woman were revealed with modesty. Curved hips, bodice with seams and ribbons to tie reveal a strange silhouette. Excessive volume and fullness all in lace or floral cotton prints.
In a more refined approach with revisited heritage references, the future seems to have taken back most of the past to rework the cut with more flexibility or with a more sculptural dimension, revealing more privacy.
BODY CONSCIOUS VS CUT-OUT APPEAL
With sets of strips, busts unveiled or sheathed, the body affirms a wearing with swimwear influences; mini dress, cut-out swimsuit, and bra become ambivalent masterpieces between day and night.
Wisely or shamelessly cut, the openings have fun to reveal all the sensuality of the knitted tube dresses with elegance or simplicity.
