We were given the actual show, we were able to watch the show online- live streamed and the whole digital world went crazy. Bailey certainly wanted to entertain his audience not only with all of the above but with such a beautiful collection too.
The word that sprung to mind when seeing the models walking for SS13 Burberry was ESCAPISM, which is strangely odd for Burberry as it's a brand well known for it's practicality within its garments, so this idea of escapism within it's collection wouldn't ordinarily be suggestive of this brand but it truly was beautiful.
The collection firmly showcased a 1940's era when considering the shapes of the garments (pencil skirts with kick pleats, peplums, capes, corsets) but I also saw a little sic fi in the colours of the collection- the sweetie wrapper brights and metallics, along with the shape of some of the garments emphasised this. There was also of course, many takes on Burberry's trademark trench from the simplest, flawless white to scrummy pink ruche in a variety of amazing fabrics.
Such a fab collection for SS13 and great entertainment for todays world.
