London Trends: '60s at Burberry

’60s Shapes

After Spring 2011's strong ’70s story, designers offered a welcome antidote–think structure, shorter lengths and spherical shapes–to all the louche draping and nightlife looks. Two-tone check prints, mini shift-dresses and curved coats recalled the era’s golden Paris trio: Balenciaga, Givenchy and Pierre Cardin.
