Nobody captured London’s current predicament more vividly than Daniel Lee at Burberry. With this duo, it’s either a hit or a miss. This season, unfortunately, it was the latter, proving that as the seasons pass, Burberry is no longer capable of sparking emotion. There is nothing worse than a show that leaves you indifferent – it might as well have been an email. READ MY FULL REVIEW HERE.

Unpopular opinion: Daniel Lee’s spring collection for Burberry was actually pretty good. It felt very London circa 2005 – but not in a wannabe Y2K way; more in an Arctic Monkeys–cool kind of way. I can totally picture Alex Turner wearing one of those acidic-green leather trench coats or killer-pink bombers. Lee really delivered on outerwear this season, and the same goes for accessories – the chunky, elongated scarves look great and fun. Overall, he seems to have a stronger hand in menswear than in womenswear, and that’s probably where a lot of the online criticism has sparked. The crochet dresses à la Mary Quant felt too Topshop. Reportedly, Burberry is lowering its prices to better fit the market, but that doesn’t mean the brand should start veering toward a high-street aesthetic.
