Fashion designer Gosha Rubchinskiy has revealed a bespoke SS18 collection in collaboration with Burberry. Saint Petersburg lit up with a series of eight men’s pieces designed in collaboration with the Russian designer, in which new interpretations of the iconic Burberry trench coat and signature outerwear styles were quite the head-turners. The oversized shapes created a sort of contrast to the rest of the designer’s collection and made for a fascinating show. There were shirts, shorts and specially-designed hats that revealed a collaboration with British milliner Stephen Jones to design all the headpieces in the collection.

Christopher Bailey, Burberry Chief Creative and Chief Executive Officer, said: “I have been a big supporter and admirer of Gosha’s creative work for a long time. He has an innate cultural sensibility and I was honored when he asked us to collaborate together for his new collection. His reinterpretation of some of our most iconic designs, feels exciting, new and relevant whilst paying enormous respect to their British cultural heritage.”

Gosha Rubchinskiy continued: “Burberry has always symbolized the epitome of classic British style to me. Their timeless pieces are the perfect balance to our modern streetwear, creating a great mix. I’m very happy with the result of our collaborative work.”

The pieces from Gosha’s latest collection will be launching in January 2018. In the meantime, visit burberry.com/gosha-rubchinskiy/ for more information on the collaboration. The Photo Gallery, right this way…
