Announcement Potter Fans

Burberry - I really hate the brand, it is meant to be this quintessential and classic label. Apart from their trench coats I think it is a pile of manure. Christopher Bailey - the creative director does try to make it haute couture but it is so limited and archaic. However I do love their ad campaigns, they have stuck to their young and British campaign for the past 5 years. Last year, the stunning Agyness Deyn was the face of Burberry, she still is the face of their perfume the beat. It has just been announced that Hermione Granger aka Emma Watson aka young, bright thing is fronting the campaign. The photos were taken by photographer extraordinaire Mario Testino.








The photos are really cool, the composition, the use of really bright lighting in the background, I think it is safe to say Mr. Testino did a great job. But, is it just me or are the trench coats a bit big for the petite Miss Watson.





The fresh faced Miss. Granger is very much the archetypal 'english rose' which is why I don't think she needed the dark and smoky eyes.





This is a personal favourite, they all look like naughty school children. All the male models are rather striking.
