Celebs Attend Burberry Reopening In Beverly Hills

Burberry is a fashion house that has been alive and kicking since 1856. The traditional clothing line has always been in tune with its British heritage, but ever since Christopher Bailey took over as Creative Director, the line has gotten a face-lift.

Bailey has successfully given the classic British lines a modern twist. Hollyscoop was on the red carpet at the Burberry store re-opening in Beverly Hills where Bailey and renowned fashion photographer Mario Testino hosted a private soiree.

The event brought in Burberry clad L.A. hipsters such as Kate Hudson, Kate Beckinsale, Liv Tyler, Mario Bello, Mischa Barton, Kelly Osbourne, Anna Friel, Emily Van Camp, Milo Ventimiglia and much more.

Burberry has never looked so good, but we wanted to know why this warm British line works so well with the Californian sun? “I think it's classic and it doesn’t date. Its really nice classic pieces that you can mix up with other things, ” said British babe Kate Beckinsale.

While Kelly Osbourne added, “I could walk in somewhere and be like 'Oh I love that' and my mom does that as well, and we wear completely different clothes.” To our surprise designer Christian Siriano attended the event and admitted he loves Burberry, “I think the clothes are so chic, sophistical and stunning.”

Photographer Mario Testino said that his collaboration with Bailey was to bring some “romance this season, make it a little more personal and more intimidate.”

In regards to what to pick up from any Burberry boutique, Bailey says, “I think Burberry is so much about outerwear and everything to do with outerwear so I think trench coats are the anchor to everything with Burberry it’s where we come from its what were born from I think that’s really what you come to Burberry for, we work the bags that they all work with the outerwear and the shoes, but definitely it’s the core is outerwear.”
