Burberry launches new fragrance 'Burberry Body'

Burberry announces the launch of Burberry Body - its most sensual women’s fragrance to date.



The campaign directed by Christopher Bailey, features Rosie Huntington-Whiteley wearing only a rose gold satin trench coat and the scent.

"Burberry Body is the most exciting launch that we have ever created and captures the iconic spirit of the brand today in a striking and sensual way. Rosie's effortless style and her staggering beauty made her the natural choice as the first Burberry Body." explains Christopher Bailey, Chief Creative Officer of Burberry.



Burberry will create an iconic portfolio of "Burberry bodies" shot by Mario Testino, iconising the fragrance for years to come.

Burberry Body launches in over 150 countries from 1 September 2011 with further details of the innovative bottle, fragrance and scent all being revealed over the coming weeks.

Roberto Cavalli F/W 11/12 Campaign by Mert & Marcus

The Roberto Cavalli Fall/Winter 2011-2012 advertising campaign stars Natasha Poly, Mariacarla Boscono and Karen Elson. They are exceptional muses of the Florentine designer, who chose to use women with different personalities and appearances through which to represent his collection. Each of them embodies a characteristic of the Cavalli women: sensuality, sweetness and determination.







Mert & Marcus, who have for many seasons interpreted the spirit of the Maison Cavalli collections, shot the campaign in Black Park, a beautiful location not far from London.



Nature and the clothes come together. Set in a charming woodland, flowers, trees and leaves create a magical, mysterious and enchanting atmosphere. The setting is complemented by three elegant creatures, while at the same time a kaleidoscope of images created by mirrors and refractions of light are unfolding.







In a dream-like and metaphorical setting, the duality of a woman is expressed by armour-like clothing, animated with bright metallics: a light that is turned on and shapes the body from within, that sculpts the female anatomy and transforms it, rendering it futuristic, ready to embark on the path to a new sensuality.

Burberry Prorsum F/W 11/12 Campaign

'I was inspired by iconic British portraits and our own archive campaigns from the late 1960s of Jean Shrimpton using her trench coat to shelter herself from the poetic and romantic British weather.



We wanted to create a group of portraits celebrating British actors, musicians and models.' Christopher Bailey, Burberry Chief Creative Officer.
