Burberry Beauty Updates

IMG_0979.JPG

 Capture.JPG

In the vein of the recent Tom Ford Updates and Chanel Updates threads, I thought I would start one for Burberry! I think they have had a ton of great releases recently (new eye shadow formula, kisses lippies). Burberry is one of the most consistently good designer lines in my opinion.

 

what items have you liked recently from Burberry? Anything you are waiting for or have your eye on?

Re: Burberry Beauty Updates

I read somewhere that Shiseido bought both Dolce Gabbana and Burberry beauty brands.  That might explain a few things- lack of product availability, sales at discount stores...

LONDON, United Kingdom — Burberry has a new graphic identity.

The British megabrand’s chief creative officer Riccardo Tisci took to his personal Instagram Stories to unveil a new logo — stark capital letters saying "Burberry London England," replacing the previously softer, rounder font — and monogram — the founder Thomas Burberry's initials "TB" interlocked across a honeyed background — on Thursday.

It marks the first time the brand has changed its logo in almost 20 years (the previous logo, which saw Burberry drop the "S" from its name, was designed by Fabien Baron in 1999).

Developed in collaboration with the renowned British art director and graphic designer Peter Saville — best known for his New Order and Joy Division record sleeves, and more recently, his work for Calvin Klein under Raf Simons — the brand’s new logo was inspired by Tisci’s visit to the house’s archive, "especially a logo from 1908 and a Thomas Burberry monogram," according to an email correspondence between the two creatives, which Tisci shared on social media.

The logo and monogram print will appear across all Burberry channels and in a new advertising campaign.

The new visual identity comes five months after Tisci took the creative helm at Burberry, replacing Christopher Bailey. Chief executive Marco Gobbetti, who joined the company in July 2017, is nine months into his 5-year plan to reposition Burberry as a genuine luxury player and re-energise a brand whose sales growth has significantly lagged rivals LVMH and Kering. Core to the strategy is a renewed focus on leather goods, which currently account for less than 40 percent of revenue, and will presumably leverage the new monogram.

After the 2008 financial crisis, fashion that so conspicuously screamed commercialism and consumption fell out of favour. Even Louis Vuitton changed tack, reserving its signature stamp for only limited-edition goods. After all, decreasing availability means increasing exclusivity — and for luxury brands, this means increasing demand.

But now, luxury brands are returning to logos. As part of his maximalist revolution, Gucci creative director Alessandro Michele resurrected the brand’s interlocking G motif from its '90s heyday, reinterpreting it for a younger, modern audience by adorning it with flowers or pairing it with playful motifs. Dior's Maria Grazia Chiuri reintroduced the house's logo print on handbags for her first ready-to-wear show. Fendi, too, has been reviving its black and brown double 'F' logo print across its clothing and accessories.

Tisci previously revealed on social media the news that Burberry and Vivienne Westwood would be collaborating on a limited-edition collection, launching in December 2018.

Tisci will show his first full collection for Burberry in September 2018.

Seems interesting....

Re: Burberry Beauty Updates

Looks like they are also rebranding their logo. I personally prefer the original one, the more modern, minimalist feel to the new one doesn't fit with the brand well IMO.

Re: Burberry Beauty Updates

It just looks so close to the font in the news article. Doesn't really seem to stand out for brand identity -- have to wait and see the whole package.

Re: Burberry Beauty Updates

@gingerleigh @Aaliaa I’ll miss the old logo. The new one is so plain. As for Riccardo Tisci, he’s the one that designed Kim Kardashian’s “grandma sofa” dress for the Met Ball when she was pregnant with North.

 

So, buckle up. Dude is a risk-taker 😁

Re: Burberry Beauty Updates

I was in a Sephora yesterday and the Burberry makeup section was gone. The employee said all Sephoras are removing it, including online. I hope this is wrong, some of my favorite products are Burberry! I see the makeup is still available online, so my fingers are crossed its not totally gone from Sephora!

Re: Burberry Beauty Updates

Oh no! I hope that's not true. Burberry is my favorite brand! I've never seen a Burberry display in person, so I rely on the promo codes and point perks to explore the brand. Where else is Burberry makeup available? Anywhere you would recommend, especially for someone who would have to order online?

Re: Burberry Beauty Updates

@Anonymous Nordstrom carries Burberry, including a few items Sephora doesn't stock.

Re: Burberry Beauty Updates

I recently bought the eyeshadows in Pale Barley and Midnight Brown when they were on sale at Costco for about $12.99 each.  Since I had a $20 giftcard, I figured the purchase was meant to be. 🙂

I received them today, and I noticed that the texture is not the same as the Wet and Dry Glow formula.  They application was patchy.  Also, there was an odd, sort of rubbery smell to the shadows.

Did anyone else order them from Costco, and/or could you verify what I noticed as normal or not for the shadows?  I had tried some other shades from other retailers and I don't recall those issues.  Thank you!

By the way, Midnight Brown is a beautiful cool brown.

Re: Burberry Beauty Updates

I got both of my Burberry Beauty boxes in!

Box with Dark Earthy and Burberry Kisses in Russet. And box with Pale Barley and Lip Velvet Military Red. I do still prefer the one with eyeshadow. I love little sets like this. They're both super cute!

Re: Burberry Beauty Updates

Those sets are beautiful! I might have to pick one up during the point multiplier now. 😄
