The cue word is traditional handicraft, especially with the accessories of summer 2012. It is translated in an exemplary way by Christopher Bailey for Burberry Prorsum, where handcrafted ethno elements meet modern ethno graphics. Raffia fibres and wooden beads come in combination with cotton and linen qualities in hand-woven or crocheted look. The highlight: the I-make-it-myself look imbues luxury objects like the tote, clutch or also glasses with a natural charm, which however seems just as precious due to the variety and the richness of the traditional handiworks.
