Christopher Bailey is a master for the works of art. And it’s proven by this Burberry Prorsum Fall 2014 collection: a memory-lane down Bloomsbury’s Charleston in East Sussex. The early 20th century decorative-arts movements of the British inspired Bailey, bringing forward the “The Bloomsbury Girls” title to the whole collection, with couture accessories of Virginia Wolf for the hobo-chic trendy wannabes. The new “Burberry à la Bailey” rules translated into a delicate canvas colourways and intricacy, instilling an unforgettable inspiring collection to the Burberry heritage. These Bloomsbury Girls were featured in designs that were gracefully hand-painted detailed that made them a walking work of art on the London runways. Bailey had passionately explored the 20th-century-Brit couture that it may have touched an emotional nerve on some of the witnesses.

This airy collection descended to darker tones as it marched along the runway, with a color palette of raspberry, olive, sand and blackcurrant on softly tailored trenches and suede overcoats that were brush stroked delicately in flowers. These flowers also made a naïve appearance on Bailey’s scarves, silk and crepe dresses without forgetting the summer-feel dresses in high waist and smocking-bowed at the neck. These were topped with ponchos and scarves that also give off a warm equestrian blanket as more than an accessory to suit the season’s demands. And a jazzy raincoat of sort was tinted in elegant beige with motifs of bold colored and a casual hand-painted leather jacket tied with a rope-like belt were two of many immense degrees of elegance of “The Bloomsbury Girls”. Needless to say, these Bloomsbury Girls’s men was dressed as elegantly synchronized with loose-fitting suits and revealing colorful jackets. However at the end, the most eloquent masterpieces of them all were the blankets worn across one shoulder that gave Burberry-esque Brit apache feel, with embroidered initials in Burberry signature colors – what a comfort! 

And it isn’t a Christian Bailey show if it was not executed in its most maximized form of entertainment, that of which was paired up with live music of Ed Harcourt’s “Wandering Eye”, Rhodes’ “Raise Your Love” and Paloma Faith’s “Only Love Can Hurt Like This”. The collection was a heavy one to intake in just one runway show timespan, because it was a masterpiece of the arts! Prop to Bailey’s; a revolution for Burberry! (Text Nadilla Sari Ratman)
