Burberry Prorsum – Resort 2012

The blending of conservative traditional lengths and styles with bold colors and modern stilettos is what Christopher Bailey, designer for Burberry Prorsum, does so incredibly well and continues to display in the Resort 2012 collection. With the signature Burberry trench, Bailey added creative stitching and eye catching colors of emerald, turquoise, chrome yellow and magenta.

As to what direction Bailey was aiming to achieve, "We really wanted to emphasize this feeling of artisanal and decorative pieces that had been touched by hand, celebrating craftsmanship but always with this playful element." And he certainly did just that and makes me want to have an array of these fabulous coats in my closet.

Burberry Prorsum – Fall 2011 RTW

Christopher Bailey, beneath softly falling snow (yes, real snow!), took the stage for a humble bow to the fashion elite who had gathered to take in his Burberry Prorsum Fall 2011 collection. Topped with newspaper boy hats, wrapped in wool coats of an array of colors, and slim pants, the models put on display some youthful, yet with a hint of classic details, that caught many an eye.
