Burberry Prorsum
Inspired by the world's strange weather patterns, Christopher Bailey presented a collection of Burberry weather boys in outerwear designed to protect from the wind, snow and rain. The latter included transparent PVC rain macs that kept the models dry during a real shower of water in the parade finale.
"The moulded coats were inspired by an early 60s Burberry ad campaign and the work of Barbara Hepworth, which led to these sculpted shapes with a kick at the back,” said Christopher Bailey
The look: A coat for all seasons
Silhouette: Oversized trapeze swing shapes and a more forgiving trouser shape than usual
Key items: Outerwear is the principal component in the new swing shapes, with extended martingales controlling a kick flare at the back. Duffels, blanket coats and commuter macs; oversized quilted puffa coats and short shearling jackets with exaggerated collars or wide hoods. Pant shapes are more forgiving than usual with elasticated waists and single pleat fronts creating a looser fit at the top, narrowing to a straight or tapered leg. Knitwear includes chunky cable-knit jumpers and a checked golfing sweater with insert yoke
Colour: A palette of pop brights including thistle and royal blue, pea green, tangerine and sunshine yellow. A secondary palette of subdued neutrals includes charcoal and mid-range greys, honeyed camel and natural white
Fabric & knit: Heavy duty wool and twill – bonded, laminated and paper-handed; oversized herringbone, micro-check tweeds; blanket check and tartan wool, glazed and lacquered cotton, down-filled and quilted nylon, plastic vinyl mohair and cable knits twisted with fur and doeskin; jaguar mink, rabbit, shearling and shaved faux fur
Details & trims: Leather edging, fur collars and lapels, wide oversized hoods and exaggerated stand-up coat collars, hand-woven leather buttons, luggage stitching, extended and eather rope martingales, raw-edge constructions
