The collection brings Burberry’s heritage check into focus, featured heavily on trench coats, skirts, and accessories. While the thought of wearing head to toe print might be daunting, the collection strikes a good balance between soft neutral tones and classic colours of black, shades of red and white.

Wear the pussy-bow blouse in Italian-woven silk crepe de chine with a monogram motif check plissé skirt and finish the look with a heeled point-toe pump. To ring in plenty of good luck and prosperity this year, choose the elegant Olympia bag in fiery red for completion. Or, if you prefer a more youthful style, the Pocket bag will do just the trick.

“I have always found inspiration in nature and its energy. This film really represents our connection as humans to the outside world and the journeys we take in life, always discovering new things in both our environment and also in ourselves. I truly believe in renaissance: rebirth and new beginnings. For the new year, I think we all want to find love, balance, strength and hope – this is the real beauty in life.” – Riccardo Tisci, Burberry Chief Creative Officer

The film will launch on the 18th of Jan. Watch the teaser here.
