I don’t think they understand that being British is just not hot or aspirational like it was in the mid 00’s-early 10’s. Back then you had a cultural moment with Amy Winehouse, Kate Moss paparazzi era, Lily Allen, Skins, Harry Potter movies, etc that even Chanel and DH bought into. Cara Delevigne and Alexa Chung were the last two to make being British a trend and even then that audience was less fashionable.
In 2025 who even wants to go to Britain? You can’t even get VAT refunds there anymore. Everyone who would want to go to London would rather go to Paris or Berlin now. Daniel Lee at least gets what being British is about today in his creative direction, it’s just no one really cares about it right now.
