Burberry Prorsum
REVIEW
COMPLETE COLLECTION
LONDON, September 23, 1999
By
Designer Roberto Menechetti's new take on an old British house was more feminine and fun than in previous seasons. There were sexy, double-breasted biker jackets in sueded leather that looked like they had been biking for years, cute mini dresses in a "new" Burberry check (it has the old camel-and-red colorway with a lino feel to the print), long, flowing skirts in iridescent lilac silk and macs in ultra-light sailcloth printed with the new check on a lilac or green background. It was an identifiably Burberry collection, but Menechetti seems to be getting closer to a modern British style.
