Burberry revives 80s fashion

Designer Christopher bailey of Burberry brought back the memories of 1960s in neutral shades and washed pastels which were taken from photographer Cecil Beaton and his photographs of stars like Mick Jagger and Anita Pallenberg.

Bailey informed that Cecil Beaton's pictures were light but still girls looked very feminine with plenty of elegance.

Bailey's show of mini-dresses with fitted bodice and full skirts, bell-sleeves and silver embellishment was undone by three animal rights activists who entered the catwalk and displayed posters which severely criticized Burberry for its use of fur.

Perplexed were the visitors after watching the neon colors with zebra-print legging with some of them taking a deep breath at the thought of another 1980s revival.
