BURBURRY PRORSUM- HAT KING OF THE S15 LONDON MENSWEAR SHOW

OMG, the clothes, so wearable, so chic, and the colors, j'adore the color, and the crowning glory, the jewel in the crown, the hat, in a gamut of colors to die for.  OK before, I get carried too far away, the hat, which Bailey used to pull all the looks together, is just not practical to wear. It is basically an unblocked felt capaline 3" brim, which will loose it shape in the first mist but who cares, it looks gorgeous in all the colors. A blocked safari with a raw edge would have been much better but who asked me!

unblocked felt hood
PHARELL INSPIRED CROWN BUT IT IS TOO FLOPPY FOR THE AVERAGE GUY. GIRLS WILL LOVE IT!
But darlin's we are talking fashion so who the F&*K cares about being practical. It is a fun collection inspired ny Bruce Chatwin, writer and adventure, was a British world traveler. Bailey use a book of Chatwin's "The History of English Tailoring" to print on T-shirts and the words "Exploration" and 'Adventurer" to print on leather jackets and weekend murses.
But it was the colors that make me shriek with delight.
Bravo, Mr. Bailey, Bravo.
