Burberry Prorsum S/S 2008 Iconic Runway 'Warrior' Belt, Size 90 (36")

Description: For the Spring/Summer 2008 Burberry Prorsum collection, Christopher Bailey opted for straightforward silhouettes in technical fabrics inspired by Burberry's outerwear heritage. The elegance of the clothing was juxtaposed with hard-edged luxury in the form of striking metal embellishments and regimental detailing. "She's a luxury warrior. It's a bit more rock," said Christopher Bailey, Creative Director at Burberry. "I've been listening to a lot of Deep Purple and Iron Maiden." Well, you could feel the vibe. This was the sexiest version of Burberry yet, all ruched chiffon, leather belts studded with military medallions, and stacks of chain bracelets - the stirrings of the heavy-metal revival that was coming out of London at the time. This listing is for the iconic ‘Warrior’ drawstring toggle belt – shown in numerous runway looks – that was also featured in the Burberry Prorsum campaign shot by famed fashion photographer Mario Testino. By the way, did you happen to notice the Oscar winning actor, Eddie Redmayne, in the last photo? The accompanying ‘Warrior’ handbag became the “It bag” for the season, seen on the arms of countless celebrities such as Blake Likely. The ‘Warrior’ belt is a little bit of British fashion history and it is rare to find one today, let alone one that is in exceptional vintage condition.
