Share your thoughts on the... 2024 Met Gala
I think his contract will be expire next year and the Burberry suits are probably looking for the replacement already. Because looking at this, I feel like both parties don't even happy with each other anymore. Phoebe or Clare please pick up the phone and wake up the Sleeping Burberry.
Gobetti must realise he is not Bizzari, and Tisci is not a Michele. It was already revealed earlier this year that China almost singlehandedly carried Burberry throughout the pandemic and their sales actually dropped by 75% in the UK, Europe, and America. That's why we continue to see the dual strategy of streetwear and refined, grown-up dressing, now in the same campaign. It's the sign of a brand in danger. When you look at the brands who are thriving, they all have one thing in common. Niche. You won't find hotpants and LBDs in the most cliche sense at Gucci today, they're missing out on that market which was established by Tom and Frida. Yet despite that they're still immensely sought after, probably because they have a distinct aesthetic.
Tisci's Burberry is way too scattered to connect with a niche audience.
