It was Daniel Lee’s second show for the British Burberry, held under a tent in Highbury Fields. “I thought it would be good to take people to non-obvious tourist spots,” Lee said, “because, after all, London is made up of neighborhoods.” Inside, guests were greeted by a van with very English food (cakes, bread and tea), green benches and camp-branded flasks.
The collection was quite minimalist by Lee’s standards. In any case, if we compare it with the designer’s spring debut. This time on the catwalk we saw simple two-piece double-breasted suits (even with a vest), loose shirts, sleeveless dresses with fringe and one shoulder, leather vests and new (well, what else) versions of trench coats – laconic. and with a low waist. The creative director achieved this effect with the help of lowered belts. Daniel’s favorite logo, a knight on horseback, in print form migrated to the fluid fabrics of the same dresses, shirts and outerwear. And, as it turned out upon closer examination, it consisted of images of metal carabiners and strong silver chains.
Shields with abstract shapes are found as accessories on bag straps, inserts on sunglasses and buckles on loafers. By the way, about shoes. Mules with pointed-toe heels for girls and glitter sneakers for boys are definitely the favorites of this show, according to BURO editors.
