Stephen Burrows Spring 2008

A small but poignant collection that proves further how underrated Stephen Burrows really is. Typical of most of the collections thus far, Mr. Burrows didn’t shy away from the use of bright colors and light airy fabrics. Hot pink, neon yellow and shocking blues were just some of the exuberant colors on display. Though this wasn’t a conventional runway show the clothes still popped against the plain, white backgrounds that models stood against. Some of the graphic-printed dresses looked a little dated. I know that Burrows was probably going for the whole retro feel but look number thirteen (see slideshow) in particular missed the bar. This was a small bump in the road so definitely don’t sleep on Mr. Burrows… he is one of fashions best kept secrets.
