BURBERRY MAKE ME FAMOUS

Burberry revealed their SS14 collection campaign images which is always something to look forward to. Not only because it’s always exciting to see Mario Testino’s photos that promise us sunnier days which must surely come our way again eventually. But also because we’d like to see the new wave of models because my oh my, they’re quite something.

If you’re not already hip and happening, you most certainly become so, naturally, after being featured in the Burberry ad. The campaigns show who’s hot in the UK. From Emma Watson, Cara Delevingne and Jourdan Dunn to Romeo Beckham, all examples of creative director Christopher Baily’s selection of types whose popularity don’t seem to know limits after their stint for Burberry. So which British promises can be admired this season?

Malaika Firth and Jamie Campbell Bower belong to the new faces that will take it over from Sienna Miller and her husband Tom Sturridge, who were in last winter’s campaign. The career of the 18-year-old Malaika experienced an enormous surge last year when she was asked to be the new Prada face. Their first dark skinned model since 1994. Not long after, she received an invitation to participate in the Victoria’s Secret show of November.

Actor Jamie Campbell Bower (25) had a role in Harry Potter and Sweeney Todd, but got really noticed after his role in the Twilight series and his very active love life. He was engaged to Harry Potter’s costar Bonnie Wright and was hooked-up with Lily Collins.

Right, we’d almost forget what it’s all about; fashion. The English Rose collection, which last London Fashion Week was showed to the public, shows thinly woven cashmere, and see-through lace in pastel and powder tints. Beside this, the ultimate Burberry classics were also showed; the trench coat and the Burberry check. The latter we saw in black, red, and brown on different types of bags.
