[vc_row njt-role=”people-in-the-roles” njt-role-user-roles=”administrator,editor,author,armember”][vc_column][vc_column_text]

Today marks the start of London Fashion Week, which will pay tribute to the iconic Vivienne Westwood. The public will also be able to admire the debut of Daniel Lee, the new creative director at Burberry.

 

This London fashion week, often very different from others, will be this season even more special. Designers will pay tribute to one of the papesses of British fashion, Vivienne Westwood, who passed away last December.

 

Her work not only changed the fashion industry, giving birth to punk by defining it, but it was also responsible for positive changes on a global scale,” said the British Council in a statement.

 

This year, London Week will be structured around 47 fashion shows as well as other hybrid and digital events. Another novelty, it will host the Ukrainian fashion week, unable to be held in his country because of the ongoing conflict.

 

Daniel Lee, new face of Burberry

 

Before making his debut at Burberry, the young English designer Daniel Lee, a graduate of the world-renowned Central Saint Martins school, has already proven himself in the fashion world.

 

After starting as an intern for big names such as Balenciaga, Margiela, he became ready-to-wear director for the House of Celine. In June 2018, he was appointed artistic director of Bottega Veneta and presented his first collection in February 2019. After a few years at the Italian label, he now finds himself at the head of the artistic direction of one of the oldest English fashion brands, Burberry. He succeeds the innovative and revolutionary Italian designer, Riccardo Tisci.

 

This change in artistic direction raises questions about the new face of Burberry. No sooner had Riccardo Tisci left, Daniel Lee shook things up with a brand new logo. In the background: back to the roots, new typography and homage to the British identity …

 

This identity mutation also includes a first campaign, in homage to the very British side of Burberry. Daniel Lee chose to highlight promising British talents, including musicians Skepta and John Glacier, singer Shygirl and models Lennon Gallagher and Liberty Ross.

Although this new campaign represents existing products, not designed by the new designer, it gives some indication of what he has in store for his new Maison de coeur. Between modernism and come to basics, this mix may be promising.

 

A new breath for London Fashion Week

 

In addition to the Burberry show, so eagerly awaited by buyers and other fashion actors, the Moncler label will present for the first time its Moncler Genius collection, worn since its inception by iconic designers such as Pierpaolo Picciolo of the House of Valentino, JW Anderson or Simone Rocha.

 

 

For Caroline Rush, the director of the British Fashion Council, it is “a huge relief to be able to organize the London Fashion Week again“. The September event had to be put aside and drastically reduced due to the death of the Queen. Just when fashion was recovering from the pandemic.

 

 

A new fall-winter season under the sign of grung, punk and English style par excellence. And where the most recognized British designers as well as young designers, will pay tribute to Vivienne Westwood, the designer with crazy hair, whose checkered print was the trademark.
