Burberry announces a new capsule collection that celebrates our relationship with Highgrove Gardens, which surround the private residence of Their Majesties King Charles III and Queen Camilla.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Honouring our British heritage as a proud Royal Warrant holder, the Highgrove x Burberry collection promotes the work of The King’s Foundation, a charity founded by His Majesty which acts as custodian of Highgrove Gardens, and reflects King Charles III’s long-standing interest in environmental conservation.<\/p>\n

“This new collection in collaboration with British artist Helen Bullock is the result of our strong and continuing partnership with Highgrove.”<\/em>\u00a0Daniel Lee,\u00a0Chief Creative Officer<\/p>\n

Collection<\/strong><\/p>\n

Full of British charm, the Highgrove x Burberry collection celebrates the vibrant designs of artist Helen Bullock. Taking her cues from the natural world, Bullock has created four artworks inspired by the Kitchen Garden at Highgrove – a walled oasis where nature’s design meets careful cultivation. Bullock captures the beauty of the Kitchen Garden, drawing inspiration from its trees, elegant arbours and cascading flowers – alongside its honeybees and fountain.<\/p>\n

“The Gardens are so vast and rich it was hard to decide where to start. But I soon fell for the tangled sway of wildflowers and that special combination of dancing poppies and cosmos.”\u00a0<\/em>Helen Bullock,\u00a0Artist<\/p>\n

“The strong relationship between Burberry and Highgrove continues in this fourth collection celebrating excellence in British creativity, heritage and the wonderful outdoors.”\u00a0<\/em>Scott Simpson,\u00a0Retail Director for The King’s Foundation<\/p>\n

The collection is inspired by the beauty of the natural world and honours Burberry’s deep-rooted relationship with the outdoors: the main material of each piece is made from either certified wool, organic cotton or organic silk.<\/p>\n

Burberry has also made a charitable contribution to The King\u2019s Foundation to further enhance ongoing nature and environmental activities in the Highgrove Gardens. The charity provides access to nature for a variety of visitors and educational programmes, from specialist traditional furniture-making to sessions with community youth groups.<\/p>\n

Campaign<\/strong><\/p>\n

The supporting campaign showcases the Highgrove x Burberry collection alongside a selection of core pieces, in a series of family moments amidst the beauty of a British country house and garden. Globally renowned actors Elizabeth McGovern, Laura Carmichael and Sop\u00e9 D\u00ecr\u00eds\u00f9 wear a selection of pieces in a special portfolio of portraits, shot by photographer Camille Summers-Valli.<\/p>\n

Both McGovern and Carmichael are known for their roles in the acclaimed British series ‘Downton Abbey’, while D\u00ecr\u00eds\u00f9 recently played the titular character in period drama film ‘Mr. Malcom’s List’.<\/p>\n

Adds Lee, “Asking these esteemed actors to wear the collection was the best way to make the clothes come to life”.<\/em><\/p>\n
