Burberry Prorsum Mens F/W 09.10

[visconti]

Given the economy, it isn't surprising that they're pushing the check, but given how almost everything from the non-Prorsum lines is already coated with it, seeing it here is disappointing. Based on the photos so far, many of the challenging pieces from older collections are gone, but it also lacks the effortless appeal of some of his older work. A friend and I once discussed how, while we personally didn't want to wear Prorsum, it would be great if the average guy on the street could take a bunch of tips from the s/s 09 collection. That kind of desireability isn't showing up here (yet?). As it stands, this is like a super-safe variation of the themes from McQueen f/w 06 (the one with the high waisted pants and frills).

Didn't Pilati do something like the red lapel in the first post? Also worth noting are the longer sweaters. I like the idea, but based on similar ones I've tried on, they get a bit tough to walk in.

I think Prorsum will still price ridicurous even the economy is now worse (I don't see they price less for S/S 09 so far)....from what we look here, it is not worth the price as compare to this winter season.

A lot of the FW09 menswear collections aren't very remarkable, you can really tell that economic downturn has really affected designers...

I love this collection, especially the black coat that is red inside. I love Burberry coats.

A lot ?
It's just the start of the Fashion Week...
No?...

It's sure that the economic downturn have, and will have an effect on designers, but I prefer to wait & see all the collections...

And on the collection itself... It's just... Uninteresting...

[Blanche DuBois]

it is certainly very dark moody
depressing...and not innovative, though the cardigan with the blazer overlay
looks quite nice and masculine, which is good

hey hey!!
and what about the prada guy in the third picture?? he got lost?

... very disappointing. after the cool women's pre-fall i was expecting so much more from Bailey

[Thefrenchy]

As a Burberry Prorsum fan i'm soooo disappointed. I don't know, this looks soooo uninspired. I bet i could achieve most of these looks by borrowing some of my grand-father's clothes...

[Street_a_Licious]

i still love the pants but the looks from the first post are just horrible. that Prada-esque shirt, that HORRIBLE Novacheck shirt, that coat.... well the coat ain't crap, but by now i'm used to seeing better from Bailey.

lol that one look is SO prada. i really like this collection. Not his best fall collection(last fall was really goood!) but it's still fab still.
