Christopher Bailey found inspiration in artist Henry Moore’s work for Burberry’s spring-summer 2017, see-now buy-now collection. From sculptural shapes to feather embellishments, the designs played with proportions and shape. For colors–Bailey focused on neutrals with white, black and navy hues. The Burberry woman can cover up in sculpted trenches with ruffled tops. For skirts or dresses, sheer and lace styles reigned. As for shirting, Burberry offers up deconstructed styles with bold stripes. Sweaters are one-sleeved, creating an asymmetrical cut against the body.
