Tradition and elegance has been the cornerstone of Burberry’s ‘Made In Britain’ image. Particularly, when talking about its luxury Prorsum division. A change in creative direction with Christopher Bailey in 2004, preceded the Yorkshire-born designer named Burberry's chief executive nine years later – and at the helm in 2015, Bailey remains much the playful artisan – even with his men’s wear.Monday afternoon's Burberry show took place under the glass-roofed, open-walled greenhouse, which stood magnificently in Kensington Gardens. Bailey eschewed any type of secrecy pre-show, naming the collection ‘Strait-Laced'. At first glance, the name alluded to the narrow tailoring of the mohair wool suits that parading down the white runway. As the 24-piece orchestra played on the crowd, which featured Samuel L. Jackson front row, witnessed double-faced cashmere topcoats, cashmere knitted joggers, as well as lightweight down jackets and summer-light, wool-silk blend trench coatsThen, from the second open-blazer look, it become clear 'lace' was the second play-on-word when link the name and the collection. The typically feminine macramé, Chantilly and Nottingham lace softened the formality. Lace shirts and ties paired-up with razor sharp jackets, and tees made from lace gave track pants a dandy feel instead of sporty. Lace plackets, which travelled down the front of shirts in black, offset the purity of the white, and functionally replaced the need for ties. Style.com reported Bailey used the expertise of small and local artisans to master the craft of weaving cotton lace. Just like Scotland’s Morton Young and Borland (MYB). Renowned textile artisans, MYB have been exclusively weaving Scottish lace and madras sheers since 1900.

Available on Le Souk, the Natural Edward lace is one of MYB’s most luxurious. Made from pure cotton, it is cut in royal-look patterns, ideal for expensive fashion shirts and lingerie.
