2008*










This year, Burberry's Fall/Winter Collection was brighter than the lasy few years.
Brown, dark blue, violet, griseous and claret is this year's color theme.
I like these type of color very much because they give me a comfotable & soft feeling.
We can sense that winter is coming!
Also, I like Burberry's coats too!
They are so cool & stylish, giving us a mature mood.

Before the show, the designer was explaining how he went about squaring that massive circle for Fall: with busbylike wool beanies; plain, girl-friendly overcoats; and "trumpet" flares, on the one hand; and on the other, with extraordinarily worked, couturelike outerwear constructed from tiered feathers, suede "sequins," and fringed leather leaves.

Bailey put his focus on proportion. He began by balancing a short silhouette (coats came curved into the hem) over long, skinny legs walking on high platforms, then worked in his great-looking bootlegs with boyish jackets in menswear fabrics. As the collection segued to the luxury end, the handcrafted coats became ever more complex and textured: in multi-pleated, knotted strips of organza; pieces of fox fur cut out and re-appliquéd; piled-up shredded leaves of chiffon.
