FEMININITY

The collection pays homage to the indomitable force of Mother Nature and the widespread British craft and outdoor movements of the early 20th century. With a sense of fluidity, looks reinvent tradition and the heritage of the house, twisting classicism and encouraging freedom of expression.
The Autumn/Winter 2021 Womenswear Presentation
A wandering terrain – first seen in the Autumn/Winter 2021 menswear presentation – transforms our 121 Regent Street store. Models charge confidently through the space, set to a soundtrack produced and mixed by Ville Haimala, featuring tracks by Amnesia Scanner, Kamixlo and Toxe.
Gleaming gold lamé pieces are illuminated with hundreds of light-catching paillettes, evoking the colour and patina of the sun. In accessories, we introduce the fluid Flag bag and the signature Olympia collection evolves with a scarf tote and clutch – alongside stretch-tulle sculptural heels.
Introducing the presentation, an awe-inspiring incarnation of British artist Shygirl debuts an original spoken-word piece – an ode to the divinity of nature and womanhood.
Riccardo Tisci on ‘Femininity’
Watch our interview with Burberry Chief Creative Officer, Riccardo Tisci, as he discusses the inspiration behind key pieces from the new collection, his emotional connection to women and family, and why this collection is a true celebration of femininity.

‘I wanted this collection to feel truly emblematic of the power of feminine energy: a modern armour that captures its characteristic fierce aura. There’s an underlying attitude to the collection that’s very British; of being unique, eccentric and totally authentic in how you express yourself.’
RICCARDO TISCI, BURBERRY CHIEF CREATIVE OFFICER
