It's his best show at Burberry to date, for sure. Clearly moving to Milan was the right choice to make. The presentation of this collection felt so much more elevated somehow than his previous work and felt much more refined.
I love the fact that there was no jewellery/unnecessary ornamentation, and that there was a real focus on silhouette and cut. Bravo to Riccardo on resisting the call this season to include cash-grab monogram tights, gaudy costume jewellery, pointless scarves, etc. So tired of seeing all that on the runway. It's lazy and uninspired.
In terms of taste, this is lightyears ahead of pretty much everything we've seen in Milan over the last few days. After that trash Fendace show, this is a complete breath of fresh air.
