Burberry AW22 collection in photos

Burberry is back (to the live runway). Staged off-schedule at Central Hall Westminister in London, Riccardo Tisci’s latest collection for Burberry marked the brand’s first live show after two years, with models ceremoniously marching across a ballroom of banquet tables laid with plates, glasses and cutlery. The collection was a celebration of Britishness, exploring the dichotomies and perspectives that constitute British identity by building upon the brand’s rich history and house codes. “It was important for me to explore what it means to belong, how our roots influence our identity and how the power of community and togetherness is what truly brings meaning to the world,” the Chief Creative officer said. Elements of regalia were contrasted with subcultural influences, while classic British connections and hallmarks of the house––including the iconic trench, the Equestrian Knight Design and oak leaf crest––were refreshed and reconstructed in new iterations.

Technology is a double-edged sword: It’s facilitated advances in fashion, but has also exposed us to the downsides of a hyper-connected digital lifestyle. Inspired by his own journey of healing from burns and the toxic comments on social media, Olivier Rousteing’s AW22 collection for Balmain explores the idea of safety. Light and delicate touches combine with symbols of security and strength—powerfully protective wraps, shields and gilets—to emphasise that there is protection in truth and transparency, collective empathy and shared hopes for progress.

Nicolas Ghesquière presents a collection that highlights nostalgia and the youth for AW22. From striped rugby shirts and oversized shoulders on jackets and blazers to men’s ties and wide-leg trousers, each look modelled down the runway displayed a borrowed-from-the-boys aesthetic. “The impermanence and beautiful volatility of adolescence. Testing. Trying. Playing. Knowing. Yearning. Desiring... Wanting it all. Without restrictions. Having the world at your feet,” he says of the collection. Click through to see the entire collection!

Creative Director Jonathan Anderson balances the natural vs extraordinary for AW22. With the aim of creating fashion that entices a reaction, textural fabrics such as leather felt, latex, tweed, knit, silk resin and 3D-printed fibres were used in this surrealist-inspired collection. Swipe through to see all the intricate details—from the mould of luscious lips to the balloon inserts in dresses—throughout the entire collection.

While guests sat safely behind a protective glass screen, models walked down the circular runway in a snowstorm wearing pared-down looks with bold silhouettes, hybrid stretch dresses and exaggerated accessories. With this show, Creative Director Demna Gvasalia’s goal was to evoke and represent the hardship and desperation he had gone through as a young refugee in a war-torn country.
