Girl Next Door Inspires the Burberry Prorsum Resort 2014 Collection
Meghan Young — June 6, 2013 — Fashion
The Burberry Prorsum Resort 2014 collection might bring out the 'inner sassiness of the girl next door' as stated by the designer, but, unfortunately, not everyone lives beside Cara Delevingne or Karlie Kloss. Nevertheless, the fashion line does channel the approachability and elegance of Audrey Hepburn, who is perhaps the ultimate girl next door, if there ever was one.
Pairing sweaters with see-through pencil skirts, embellished trenchcoats with white wedge booties and lace tops with basic trousers, the Burberry Prorsum Resort 2014 collection is quite the treat. Style.com notes, "They seemed to be tipping the cap to a slightly screwy glamour, even screwier when it was expressed in cotton tees weighed down with big, shiny embellishments." The line makes the transition season an interesting one.
