Burberry: Christopher Bailey delivered a fantastic collection of his take on bohemian chic with The Bloomsbury Group serving as inspiration this season. The Bloomsbury Group were an influential group of writers, artists, and intellectuals in Britain during the first half of the 20th century. What ensued were the brands’ classic trench coats and purses, painted and worn with long painted scarfs belted at the waist. There were big slouchy knits in boho patterns, painted shearling jackets that came cropped or just below-the-knee, and stellar colorfully printed blankets thrown over the shoulders of a cream prairie dress or a pale pink cashmere coat. Cara Delevingne closed the show in a colorful leg-revealing chiffon dress, with a printed blanket thrown over one shoulder that revealed the mod’s initials, “CDJ” monogrammed near the bottom. Sign us up. On the heels of his new CEO appointment, Bailey is proving that he hasn’t lost his creative chops that helped put Burberry back on the map, despite his rise up the corporate ladder.
