Bright, fun-inspired collections banish winter blues at London Fashion Week
- 9 years ago
To a live performance by British singer Clare Maguire, Burberry designer Christopher Bailey sent his models down the runway at London Fashion Week dressed in patchwork floral dresses, fringed jackets and oversized ponchos.
Featuring rich shades of berry, ochre and chocolate, the bohemian collection was inspired by a mixture of folk craft using quilting and ornate embroidery on Burberry’s signature trench coats, as well as lace and crochet across its delicate silk dresses.
One of the starriest shows on the calendar, it drew a number of big names in fashion, including Kate Moss and Naomi Campbell in the front row, as well as legendary fashion photographer Mario Testino.
Julien Macdonald’s upcoming Autumn-Winter collection was inspired by the Tower of London at a Fashion Week event intent on banishing the winter blues from the catwalk.
Famous for his red carpet-friendly designs, Macdonald showed a slinky range of embellished dresses in black, metallic and bold hues.
