The Legacy Principle with Burberry

by Lotus Ladegaard

Burberry has been around for more than 150 years giving the fashionistas around the globe outdoor attire with a focus on tailoring. In 2018, Riccardo Tisci was announced as Burberry’s Chief Creative Officer, and just a few months later, Tisci presented a new logo and monogram. Tisci has successfully integrated streetwear touches into the iconic Burberry tartans, and thus revamping the brand’s aesthetics. The current times have forced fashion houses to think out of the box when it comes to presenting their collection. With the current restrictions in the UK, the brand used nearby iconic London doors as the backdrop to their collection photos. Which, by the way, works just as beautifully as the styled photo studios. The Resort Spring 2021 collection featured a parade of looks that offers a little Burberry for most preferences. The fusion of iconic fabrics and silhouettes with modern details and beautiful tailoring is bound to excite fashion editors. Pieces like the classic camel trench coat with Burberry in cap letters on the belt and at the bottom of the coat and the yellow and grey tartan suiting with the color block in white and camel Burberry plat stood out as showstoppers. The little black bomber jacket styled with long black shorts and knee-high socks along with the black flower printed long shirt with white collar and intricate details on the sleeves styled with straight black flower printed trousers felt fresh and new. Overall, Burberry delivered a beautiful and exquisitely tailored Resort Spring 2021 that is bound to be a success and possibly win over new admirers.
