Arriving to the Burberry Prorsum Fall 2010 show, I had extremely high hopes for the night. From the almost futuristic set-up of the large screens on the walls displaying a very Burberry blizzard, which happened to magically disappear when the runway lit up and the show started, to the drinks that were served for the many runway-goers backstage, the venue alone was just amazing in it’s own.

As the show was about to begin and the lights in the room dimmed, and the Burberry name came up in lights on the runway, my heart dropped. The months of waiting in anticipation for what Christopher Bailey had in store for Fall 2010 all lead up to the next 8 minutes that were about to take place. Then, British model Alex Dunstan turned the corner. Which turned out to be a surprise since you would have thought that George Craig would’ve opened, but I’m pretty sure he was a little too busy sitting over in the front row looking on. Calm, cool, and collected, the typical alpha-male death stare walks were lost and the all around atmosphere was just pure easy-going perfection. Spotting a few bags, boots, and quite a few looks that I am going to be in desperate need of once they hit shelves, I made it my prime mission to catch an up close glimpse once the show was over.

When I made it backstage, the fun then had really began. It was super hectic, as you would expect from any other show (or area that just housed a room full of photographers, guests, models, and runway-goers, etc), but I eventually got my run-ins with the many pieces that are soon to be mine.

Making my way around, have a few short convos with the guys here & there, running into Christopher Bailey, and over-all experiencing the messages that Bailey was trying to convey, firsthand – something I will always remember. Well, until Christopher out does himself next season.
