Burberry Prorsum F/W 10.11 London

[Squizree]

Well it's not a huge change, but at least there's a slight change for Burberry this season. Even though most of the stuff looks so repetitive it's not even funny anymore. I guess this look works for Burberry well, it sells. But Bailey should at least try to steer the label into the future rather reproducing the archives.
Cool ankle boots.

hm this cobalt blue's popped up several times already since the start of FW.. i remember it from spring '07. nice to add it in the fall --maybe we are having a "decade's best" celebrating the end of the 00 years... a lot of other past trends have resurfaced, even --and non-vintage ones, just strictly 00.

I love it! Best show of London by far!

Absolutely hate the color palette in the first half, it looks like a rotten lettuce.
But the rest is great, the jackets, the boots, the bags, beautiful.

I have to say, upon viewing the entire collection, that I genuinely dislike all of it. First of all, its all over the place; the colours, the textures, the silhouettes. There are too many ideas and none of them sync together. There is no concise direction here like in his previous collections.

Second of all, thigh-high boots at Burberry Prorsum? Snake-skin thigh-high boots at Burberry Prorsum? Seriously?

Thirdly, where is the nonchalance that Bailey has established for his Burberry woman? What was refreshing about his aesthetic was that it had this certain sense of relaxed dressing. I see nothing of that here in its tight skirts, hard structured leathers and military coats.

I haven't liked any of Christophers work since his Fall 2009 Womens collection. After that, his design aesthetic seemed tainted by commercial demands, and his work suffered (at least in my eyes) as a result. I miss the seasons where he was inspired by art/design/film. Now, all it seems Christopher is inspired by is other designers work and the prospect of profit.

Besides nothing will beat Fall 2008 (Lowry, autumn leaves, destroyed feathers ).

Ugh, I want to resist to this but it's hard! , it is kind of over the place in the palette and whatever the inspiration might be but the jackets, the coats, the footwear, some of the casual dresses!, there are plenty of goodies here.
