Closes London Fashion Week 2009 22 September 2009
As
part of London Fashion Week's 25th anniversary,
quintessential British luxury brand Burberry hosted
the closing event on Tuesday 22nd September, moving
its Spring Summer 2010 Burberry Prorsum womenswear
show from Milan to London. Stars of 'Slumdog Millionaire,
actor Dev Patel and actress Freida Pinto, joined
British actress Emma Watson, model Agyness Dean
and TV presenter Alexa Chung at the only red carpet
event of London Fashion Week. A-listers including
Liv Tyler, Mary Kate Olsen, Orlando Bloom and
Maggie Cheung joined the fashion industry moguls
like Sir Philip Green, Anna Wintour and celebrity
photographer Mario Testino for the closing event.
The
London-based global luxury brand is making
a triumphant return home where the company
recently opened its new global headquarters
at Horseferry House in Westminster. The
premises were designed by Burberry creative
director Christopher Bailey and feature
cutting edge showrooms, design studios,
offices and an in-house photo studio. Burberry
joined the FTSE 100 last week, further demonstrating
its position as a top ten global luxury
brand and, despite the recession, as a major
exporter of a flourishing British creative
economy.
