Here are 5 looks from Burberry Prorsum Spring Summer 2011 Pre Collection. You can see leather jackets will take center stage next Summer. With good reason, they are classic, tough, luxe pieces that stand the test of time. I’m totally in a leather jacket phase right now – working on acquiring a few myself as we speak. The mustard color leather jacket stood out the most for it. It’s got the right amount of gorgeous with toughness. That’s a combination I can always stand behind.
Burberry will also launch its Burberry Acoustic initiative. This initiaive celebrates the Burberry heritage of founding, developing and supporting emerging British talent. Burberry Acoustic will collaborate with British artists across multiple Burberry experiences through the attitude and energy of music. All the artists are selected by Christopher Bailey and filmed exclusively for Burberry in the UK.
“We have collaborated on so many projects with new and young emerging British bands over the years. We felt that with the great interaction that we have experienced with our social media website artofthetrench that we could collaborate with musicians and artists to put together an incredible group of ongoing acoustic sessions from some of the finest talent coming out of the UK and bring them to the broad global Burberry audience” – Christopher Bailey, Burberry Chief Creative Officer
