Biker Chic at Burberry Prorsum

"The problem with direct selling of this kind is that it can cut out a designer’s ability to explore variety in a show, to experiment with a creative way forward rather than satisfy the need to make something that has to be ready to arrive at someone’s door in six weeks." - Sarah Mower

Sarah Mower at Vogue.com summed up most of my thoughts about the Burberry Prorsum Spring 2011 collection. It was Christopher Bailey doing what he does best, but I didn't get a sense that there was enough that was groundbreaking here. This collection will sell, especially given you can buy online it now, but it left me feeling a little bit underwhelmed.
