Burberry Prorsum Fall Winter 2011 Mens Shoes

Thick chunky rubber sole shoes are everywhere.

From brogues, tassel loafers, boots and sporty trainers... the collection definitely presents more noteworthy footwear options for guys this season.

Burberry Launches Burberry Body Today!



You have seen the provocative advertising campaign featuring the sexy British actress/model Rosie Huntington-Whiteley. And you have been wanting to experience the fragrance and adding another facet of Burberry into your lifestyle... The wait is finally over...



Today, 1st September marks the launch day for Burberry Body: Burberry’s most most sensual and feminine fragrance with notes of rose and iris combined with woody top notes to create an an unmistakably British scent.



“We have been working on this for a few years now. Burberry Body for us is so much more than a fragrance; it is the biggest launch we have ever done, one that captures all the modernity and heritage of this British brand today, reflecting all the facets that make up the Burberry world. We wanted to create something iconic, unique and special – placing the attitude and energy of the trench coat at the centre – connecting everything we do from music, collections, touch, scent, our stores, online platforms and communities. We are uniting all our audiences and giving them a very distinctive point of view.”



And choosing Rosie Huntington-Whiteley was a wise and natural choice for the British luxury brand, as Christopher Bailey explains:



“Rosie is this beautiful, sensual English rose and perfectly captures the spirit of Burberry. She has this perfect balance of sensuality and confidence with humility. Burberry is part of her history and it felt perfectly natural for her to be our first Burberry Body.”



Burberry Body extends beyond fragrance and includes Eau de Parfum, Eau de Parfum Intense, Body Milk and Body Oil. Make your way down to any Burberry beauty counter at your nearest departmental store to sample this fresh scent debut.



(As part of the global Burberry Body launch, a new capsule Nude collection also debuts worldwide today. Check out the pics here!)

Shopping Tuesday: myMANybags 'Mr Porter' Picks This Week

Tuesday is always a happy day for me. I love Tues because it is the day Mr Porter will showcase their new shipments on their website. This week, I am in a crimson mood... and I love 2 things that comes in red tones.

For a start, the lovely Burberry Leather Document Holder in Cherry tone (£258.59 w/o vat) is a great clutch bag for any guys! Structured, smart and with an eye catching hue, it's an accessory for any day. I adore the use of polished leather that gives it a refined appeal, suited up or down!
Next item on my wishlist is this beautiful and woolly comfy mohair wool sweater from Marc By Marc Jacobs (£222.91 w/o vat). Amazing coloured stripe of moss green, blue, coral and cream sends off a soothing vibe that makes you looking chic and extremely hug-able this fall.


Saving the pennies for these for sure!

The Runway Sniper #76

Spring Summer 2012 menswear collection...

Below: These appliqué shirts and tees look reminds me of Miu Miu mens Spring Summer 2005...

Burberry Prorsum Spring Summer 2012 Menswear

Throw in a mix of English eccentricities, craftsmanship and ethnic inspirations... and there you go... Burberry Prorsum's Spring Summer 2012 menswear. Upbeat, wearable, intricately crafted but with enough quirk (check out those dorky knitted caps!) to warrant our consumer dollars. Chrisopher Bailey has done another outstanding job balancing practicality and runway appeal.

“This collection started with our iconic heritage as the foundation, we really wanted to emphasise this feeling of handcrafted pieces, celebrating craftsmanship but always with this playful element. We have taken our icons and played with texture to personalise and give them a real character and charm using colour to highlight the intricate detail that goes into crafting them.’’
Christopher Bailey, Burberry Chief Creative Officer

Focus is on outerwear once again. But this time, they are more summer-friendly, with plenty of parka jackets that will not seem like an overkill in summer heat. Silhouettes are given a wide over narrow proportions, with the skinniest of pants often matched with oversized jackets. While the delectable brightly hued pieces definitely garnered a lot of applause, I feel it is the footwear who stole the limelight for this collection.

Those new S2012 footwear is love at first sight! I love them so much that I am going to start a 'shoe fund' for next Spring Summer 2012 dedicated to Burberry Prorsum shoes (I know they will probably cost an arm and leg, so it is good to start saving early). Those thick soles in cock material and navajo fabrics/woven leather mixes are eccentric and fun, making them a must have for any shoe fan. One minor complaint though... the 'wedge sole' look seems inspired from Prada's infamous SS2011 Espadrilles Brogues. And for that matter, the entire ready-to-wear collection reeks of a Miuccia flavour (Think past Prada and Miu Miu collections... Especially Spring Summer 2005). Brand them Prada and they would still feel most at home. Mutual designer inspirations? I guess... which is not necessary a bad thing. What do you guys think?

Ad Campaigns And Catalogues #222

Below: Burberry unveils new Fall Winter 2011 Ad Campaign for the month of June...

Burberry Fall Winter 2011 Ad Campaign: New Imagery For June

Get ready for new season inspirations. Fall Winter 2011 Ad campaigns are slowly trickling online, bringing on an anticipation for cooler weather.

Burberry has just released their new Fall Winter 2011 Ad campaign (which will follow a similar strategy to their SS2011 season's) where a new set of imagery will be unveiled each month till December.

For June, the ad campaign starrs Jourdan Dunn, Cara Delevingne, Sam Claflin and Felicity Jones. An all British cast that showcases the diversity of the Burberry boy and girl.
‘’I was inspired by iconic British portraits and our own archive campaigns from the late 1960s of Jean Shrimpton using her trench coat to shelter herself from the poetic and romantic British weather. We wanted to create a group of portraits celebrating British actors, musicians and models.’’
Christopher Bailey, Burberry Chief Creative Officer

The campaign also leverages on the beautiful colours of the FW2011 ready-to-wear pieces to build a cohesive colour story. Luxurious croco leather pieces and those furry cow hide prints become the centre of attention in those shots. Accessories are pivotal in sale profits and they are now rightful stars of their own as much as the models themselves.

I especially love the group shot of the Burberry boys... power suited and all ready to conquer the corporate world.




Enjoy the images and video!

Below: Gorgeous plaid coats with leather and shearling trim...

Below: No one likes to be rained on their parades, unless you are wearing fabulous Burberry Prorsum:-P Bravo to the showmanship for this season!

Burberry Prorsum Fall Winter 2011 Menswear

"Burberry Weather Boys - A coat for all seasons." Christopher Bailey

And it literally did. Protection from London's wet and cold winters is what Christopher Bailey had in mind, right on cue with the roots of the brand. So it was quite a spectacle to see rain literally falling onto the raincoat clad models at the end of the show. That's some showmanship by Burberry Prorsum... love it:-)

The Fall Winter 2011 Mens collection from Burberry Prorsum casts off the heavy military influences from past seasons and gets reborn into a refreshing 60's inspired elegance with outerwear being the focus of the collection. From the first showing of the plaid blanket coats in an array of bright hues to the oversize sculptural shapes, the collection immediately gets thumbs up in my books. (Although the few looks featuring the brightly coloured patent leather coats reminded me somewhat of Prada's Fall Winter 2010 collection...perhaps they both share a 60's influence). The show then proceeded on, marching in models onto the runway, wearing some of the most gorgeous brown plaid coats trimmed with shearling and leather. Of course, as the show moved on, it was evident those furry Baker Boy caps are going to be the next hot accessory come Fall Winter 2011. Matched with black and white 'Jaguar mink' long coat, the look is a formidable style statement for any winter.

I love the simplicity of the collection. Classics updated with new materials (Bonded textured nylon?!?!) and the colour theme ranging from camel, tangerine to dark charcoal ensures there will never be a dull moment in winter.

Last of all, what stood out even more were the bags that have seemingly stolen the limelight in many Burberry Prorsum shows. My favourite 5 are as follows. I am crazy about the Alligator flat briefcase with a unique tubular pallsander wood frame for the handles. Fresh shape, great size... it's my dream bag for next Fall:-P I shall start registering with Santa now for my next Christmas wishlist. Or of course, I can also raise that £15,000 within the next week and be delivered with this arm candy in the next 2 months. Where are my sponsors?!?! (A guy can dream yeah?)

Below: My top 5 picks for those arm candies... 1) Alligator Briefcase with lock (£15,000)

Below: 2) Gladstone canvas briefcase with lock (£995)

Below: 3) Gladstone canvas tote bag (£995)

Below: 4) Large Mink Fur Tote Bag (£5750)

Below: 5) Large Felt Canvas Tote Bag (£895)

So what are your favourites? Do remember you can purchase them right now at www.burberry.com and received them within 2 months. How's that for 'showing off' even before Fall 2011 season is here?:-P I'd say, the feeling will be incredible!

Ad Campaigns And Catalogues #189

Below: Burberry has innovate yet again! For Spring Summer 2011, a new set of ad campaign will be revealed each month for the whole duration of the season... now that's no expenses spared to bring the best to their customers, considering how much effort and costs it involves to create a campaign:-) Bravo, Burberry!

Burberry Spring Summer 2011 'Evolving' Ad Campaign

Fashion brands focuses a huge part of their efforts to build upon the aspirations and fantasies of their customers. And Advertising Campaigns play a major role to selling these aspirations. Often siphoning a huge chunk of their marketing budgets, these campaigns uses the best models and photographers to best exemplify the current collection's themes and mood.

To have a campaign each season is extravagant, but to show a new one each month for the entire season is phenomenal and an innovative way of outreaching to consumers. Burberry has done it yet again. Another first for the brand, Burberry has launched this new initiative thru an evolving ad campaign for their new Spring Summer 2011 season. Each month a new British cast, a new set of imagery will be launched as a way to continuously excite consumers across all the brand's sales platform (of course the successful yearly financials of Burberry, shows the confidence of the brand to have such a marketing investment). No longer will a set of images be repeated in the pages of your favourite fashion mags, store posters for a long 6 months of a season. Be prepared to be refreshed and inspired monthly for Spring Summer 2011. This is truly a welcoming innovation with no expenses spared on Burberry's part! Good job, Burberry.

For the first ad campaign for Spring Summer 2011, the setting is Brighton Beach. British models Cara Delevingne and Jacob Young show off the collection's concept of protection from the elements. The tough and luxe pieces create contrast against the natural beach background, injecting an unexpected, lateral portrayal of Christopher Bailey's ideas (I would be appalled if they just literally show off the biker-influenced collection in a biker setting!). Shot by Mario Testino, the campaign reinforces the brand's synergy with British Landscapes, weather and emerging talents.

“We wanted to create a dynamic, evolving campaign that reflects the diversity of our broad global consumer, revealing new British cast members each month, all with their own identity, embodying the different attitudes of the Burberry guy and girl. We shot the campaign on Brighton beach to celebrate the great British outdoors and our history of supporting emerging talent and to bring to life the emotion behind protection from the elements.’’

Below: 'Sheer' joy of Spring Summer 2011? Men's peekaboo torso and nipples?!?! Many designers are proposing transparency for next season. Neil Barrett's Spring Summer 2011 menswear sees lots of take on this transparency trend... sheer tops anyone? I like this look, blazer to show just a little and not too overwhelming for the eyes...

Below: Leather and sheer seemed to create an interesting opposing aesthetic of tough vs. the feminine... use transparency wisely to not look effeminate and trying too hard... (Neil Barrett SS2011)

Below: Military shirts in sheer fabric for Burberry Prorsum SS2011... again, tough over soft...

Below: Even more classic brands like Bottega Veneta are also not shying away from showing subtle skin... layer a trench over, show enough of pecs to tease... chest hair in minimal amounts please:-)

Below: Not even Hermès are spared from the invasion of transparency in menswear...

Below: Givenchy SS2011 also sees men dressing in sheer shirts, who says women can only do the seductive look:-)

Below: Nipple bearing seems fundamental for Spring Summer 2011 menswear... Lanvin agrees too...:-)

Below: Alexis Mabille SS2011 Menswear... sheer and flamboyant...

'Sheer' Joy For Spring Summer 2011

Remember this guy whom I commented I was against men showing off his nipples no matter what the situation is?


Time to eat my words back... *Glurp*. It may used to be 'socially' unacceptable for men to flaunt skin thru translucent fabrics (guys who do, screamed effeminate and fetish) things are about to change. Our female counterparts have always leverage on 'seduction' thru 'now you see it, now you don't' fabrics... now it is the guy's turn to 'shine' in this arena. (One thing I find strange is that guys wearing sheer tops are feminine, but it is strangely acceptable when guys bare the full torso during summer. That's considered masculine).

For Spring Summer 2011, transparency have been a big trend on the women's runway. But it seems designers all over have decided it is just as good a fashion statement for men as well. So here we are, presented on the runways of almost every major fashion brands, be it avant garde houses like Neil Barrett, Lanvin or Givenchy, or classic houses like Hermès and Bottega Veneta... each had their interpretations of transparency to some extent.

Nipples, pecs and abs 'peeked' in abundance thru sheer fabrics, lightweight knits or netted tops... it's 'male-physique' galore for any adoring eyes:-)

I wonder how widely adopted will this transparency trend be when Spring Summer 2011 hits full steam. I know if I am to wear sheer tops, I'd do it in Neil Barrett's style, militant and tough, over blazers and utilitarian pants to oppose the femininity of this subtle exposé. Or even Burberry Prorsum's biker take, with leather jackets complete with killer strap sandals.

What say you guys? Will you ever be ready to 'peekaboo' some nipples and abs?:-) Is it 'sheer joy' or 'sheer despair' for you?
