I have watched a live streaming of Burberry Prorsum Autumn/Winter 2011 collection and thought Christopher Bailey has done well as usual.
He is one of my favorite designers and I have loved his creation as his design has great balance between wearable and unique, also he uses Burberry's heritage in modern & edgy interpretation.
Also, he is one of the most advanced designers in terms of the acceptance of the digital media. He has done the 3D live streaming of catwalk shows in several cities, live streaming of shows online and pre-ordering system which starts soon after the show finished.
In this season, the show started with the look of a red check coat.
The colour pallet of the collection is based on warm colours such as red, orange and yellow, and basic colours such as dark brown and camel. Comparing to legendary last Autumn and Winter collection which is inspired by military clothes and last Spring and Summer collection which is inspired by rock style, he seems to changed to the new direction with a touch of warm colours and it became more simple and clean. Also, instead of shearling(from A/W 2010), he used a lot of mink fur in the collection. However, from some features such as over-sized silhouettes and big shawls and collars, we can see the elements from his previous collections.
Overall, I enjoyed watching various selections of coats, but it's not impressed as the previous two collections (cus I was so impressed and loved them) and one thing very disappointing was there's no long boots in the collection! Full of vibram-sole short boots and trainers...
At the finale of the show, models wearing raincoats (ponchos) walked in the rain. I loved this unique ending!!
