Burberry has ditched the gloomy, melancholy theme of their recent fall ad campaign and went with a sunny, bright greenhouse full of greenery and plants for the official Spring 2009 ads.
The campaign was shot by Mario Testino at Petersham Nurseries, a posh garden center outside London.
“I wanted the mood to be gentle, relaxed, romantic and about a quiet, beautiful sense of luxury,” explained Burberry creative director Christopher Bailey. “This campaign highlights the spirit of our wonderfully crumpled classics.” Via wwd
