London Fashion Week September 2009: Burberry

I loved everything about this ensemble. For one thing, everything Emma wore was Burberry. You can never go wrong with one  Burberry piece let alone four. I loved that she had an up-do and no accessories with such a bedazzled dress. The makeup was grown-up yet not too old and not out-doing or competing with the dress. Paired with a nude clutch purse, black Burberry coat and black heels I think this look was perfection. Hopefully Emma’s schedule isn’t too hectic so she can make an appearance this year. Burberry are actually hosting a live stream of the show on Tuesday at 4pm (UK & Ireland time). Check it out here.  I’m also hoping to do a makeup tutorial to go along with this fashion break down so check out my Youtube Channel for that.

Christopher Bailey has actually taken up the reins on the official Burberry twitter account in the run up to the show, so if you don’t already go follow them do so, here. Now for the fashion break down. To check out more photo’s from the event visit my Emma Watson fan page on Facebook here. (Sorry for the link overload, there’s just a lot that goes with this particular look!)

 

 

This coat made a short but brilliant appearance. It’s a Burberry Prorsum black Double Breasted Coat with Princess Sleeves.

 

The dress was paired with this Burberry Plaited Cord Waist Belt.

 

And the main piece itself is of course a Burberry Spring 2011 Mini Sequin Dress.

 

And last but certainly not least, she wore these Burberry Prorsum twisted Platform Sandals in black.

Emma for Burberry S/S or A/W 2011

Burberry has to be my favourite label. Why? Well, a few reasons spring to mind. They are effortless. Burberry do not need to make a huge song and dance to be noticed. Some designers make their models up with blue eyebrows, slick their hair back which makes the most beautiful model resemble Gollum, put bright pink blush together with pillar-box red lips,  or design clothes that could never be wearable in a million years. But Burberry put their models in simple makeup and simple hair. Boring? No. Normally it would be but with Burberry it works. For it’s Autumn/Winter 2010 collection we see practical clothing which is already being replicated by the high street (New Look’s Shearling boots which I own as of last week, and their Aviator Jackets). We see bright pink or yellow/green  knee-length skirts mixed with strong military style coats. We see thick black tights and another reinvention of the classic trench (military style). It’s the same Burberry we know and love yet it’s new, fresh, cool, effortless, timeless and ageless. I say “ageless” because you could be 10 or 110 and you could still pull off a any Burberry piece. Bottom line is, Christopher Bailey is an utter genius when it comes to fashion. May he NEVER leave Burberry! To see more of the beautiful collection visit Style.com.

  

 

Although I love Burberry and always will for their effortless style and confidence, I believe not getting Emma back to do the A/W 2010 was a huge mistake! They even reported a massive sales increase with Emma as the face of Burberry! So I’m urging you, as fans of Emma and Burberry to campaign with me, if you will, to get Emma back in magazines and shop displays as the face of Burberry. Just look at these photos and tell me she doesn’t make a hell of an amazing Burberry model! To see more pictures of Emma with Burberry visit my Facebook fan page Emma Watson 411.
