Burberry's autumnal collection has strong emphasis on silhouettes and different monthly colour compositionsand fabrics.

Burberry’s latest collection for women focuses on five separate important fashion aspects – silhouettes, details, fabrics, yarns/stitches and colours.

Lean trench and regimental coats, specially tailored jackets and dresses, boot legged and skinny trousers as well as skinny rib and slim fit military cashmere with button details makes up the profile for this Autumn Winter collection. Burberry believes in focusing on details such as micro ruffle details, ruched hems and feminine detailing.

This collection also plays with fabrics like stretch wool gabardine, brushed back crêpe, metallic Ikat jacquard and heavy silk georgette. There are heavy yarns and stitch elements such as fine compact military cashmere, chunky gauge wool cashmere frill and dishevelled technical silk pique.

The highlight of this collection is the three different colour themes, all linked by the Autumn Winter months, from June to August. June delivers black, white, regimental red while July focuses on charcoal, ink and purple shades. August colours are such as steel, snow and airforce green.

Burberry Womenswear Autumn Winter 2009 Collection is available at all Burberry boutiques nationwide.
