42 <strong>The</strong> showstoppers<br />

01.<br />

in the trenches<br />

<strong>The</strong> most British of British luxury houses,<br />

Burberry essentially built its entire reputation<br />

on the back of its trench coat. Year in year<br />

out, its new takes on the cl<strong>as</strong>sic design have, at<br />

best, been timid updates and, at worst, b<strong>as</strong>ic<br />

copycats of the original. It’s a whole different<br />

story this year though, with the f<strong>as</strong>hion<br />

imprint taking a leap to the future with this<br />

mid-length coat. Burberry’s traditional beige is<br />

swapped for brighter and bolder colours, with<br />

a prevailing orange palette, whilst its sharp<br />

cut and angular patterns evoke cubism at its<br />

height. (NL)<br />
