Jeremy Scott does it again!
Models: Pixie Geldof, Daisy Lowe, Liberty Ross, Iekeliene Stange, Chanel Iman
Front row: Jodie Harsh, Lady Victoria Hervey, Estelle, Cory Kennedy, Jamie Reynolds and Cobrasnake
Emma Watson, Gwtneth Paltrow, Mary-Kate Olsen and other celebrities spotted on the Burberry Prorsum show!
A shining, silver paillette-encrusted trenchcoat sparkling on the runway as metallic confetti rained down: This is the memory London fashion week will have of its 25th anniversary—and the Burberry show that ended it. There was more young glamour per foot here than the city's ever witnessed in a front row. Emma Watson was present, and so were Gwyneth Paltrow, Mary-Kate Olsen, Victoria Beckham, and Daisy Lowe; Freida Pinto and Dev Patel were holding hands. And every piece Christopher Bailey showed could have been worn by any one of them: The message was Burberry gone short, draped, deluxe, and glamorous, and aimed at the very young.
Returning from Milan to London could have meant a wallow in heritage nostalgia. Not a bit of it. Instead, Bailey brought all the high-gloss international production values he knows back to his home city, and made sure the label's history—namely, the iconic trench—looked alive and relevant to the 18- to 25-year-olds in the audience. From the fashion point of view, the reinvention of the beige, military-inflected coat is perfectly timed. Not only are tones in the range of camel and nude spot-on for the season, but military references are cropping up in many places as well.
Bailey's way of developing it had nothing to do with anything as dull as the English weather. All the emphasis was on building up a glamour shoulder, with a tied reefer's knot on the upper outside edge of each arm. All kinds of sexy tulle draping, meanwhile, were worked into what went on below. Having neatly scooped up those trends (along with a passing pastel moment), Bailey took pleasure in teasing out yet more possibilities. He showed some of the incredible techniques and fabrics Burberry has access to, like silvered gabardine and sliced suede made into hot leggings. In the end, though, this show may be most significant for the way in which it closed the gap between a public and private fashion event. In the front row, Paltrow, Pinto, and Patel were wearing pieces from the outfits that were walking the runway. And at Burberry's flagship in the center of London, the show was being Livestreamed to the public.
Also spotted, my favorite models: *drool*

Run This Town video
Sunglasses:

Barracuda Sunglasses: http://amorir.bigcartel.com/product/barracuda-preorder
Here's the video:Stunning.
And the lyrics to the catchy song:
[Intro - Rihanna]
Feel it comin’ in the air
And the screams from everywhere
I’m addicted to the care
It’s a dangerous love affair
Can’t be scared when it goes down
Got a problem, tell me now
Only thing that’s on my mind
Is who’s gonna run this town tonight…
Is who’s gonna run this town tonight…
We gonna run this town
[Verse 1 - Jay-Z]
We are
Yeah I said it
We are
This is Roc Nation
Pledge your allegiance
Get y’all black tees on
All black everything
Black cards, black cars
All black everything
And our girls are blackbirds
Ridin’ with they dillingers
I’d get more in depth
If you boys really real enough
This is la familia
I’ll explain later
But for now let me get back to this paper
I’m a couple bands down and i’m tryin’ to get back
I gave the other grip, I lost a flip for five stacks
Yeah i’m talkin’ five comma
six zeros
dot zero
Here it go…
Back to runnin’ circles ’round niggas
Now we squared up
Hold up
[Chorus - Rihanna]
Life’s a game but it’s not fair
I break the rules so I don’t care
So I keep doin’ my own thing
Walkin’ tall against the rain
Victory’s within the mile
Almost there, don’t give up now
Only thing that’s on my mind
Is who’s gonna run this town tonight
Heeeey-hey-hey-hey-hey-heyyy
Hey-heyyy-hey-hey-heyy
Heeeey-hey-hey-hey-hey-heyyy
(Is who’s gonna run this town tonight)
Hey-hey-hey-heyyy
[Verse 2 - Jay-Z]
We are
Yeah I said it
We are
You can call me Cesar
In a dark Czar
Please follow the leader
So Eric B. we are
Microphone fiend
It’s the return of the god
Peace god…
(Auh! Auh!)
And ain’t nobody fresher
I’m in Mason
(Ah!)
Martin Margiela
On the tape we’re screamin’
Fuck the other side, they jealous
We got a bankhead full of broads(?)
They got a table full of fellas… (?)
And they ain’t spending no cake
They should throw they hand in
‘Cause they ain’t got no spades…
My whole team got dough
So my bankhead is lookin’ like millionaire’s ‘fro
[Chorus - Rihanna]
Life’s a game but it’s not fair
I break the rules so I don’t care
So I keep doin’ my own thing
Walkin’ tall against the rain
Victory’s within the mile
Almost there, don’t give up now
Only thing that’s on my mind
Is who’s gonna run this town tonight
Heeeey-hey-hey-hey-hey-heyyy
Hey-heyyy-hey-hey-heyy
Heeeey-hey-hey-hey-hey-heyyy
(Is who’s gonna run this town tonight)
Hey-hey-hey-heyyy
[Verse 3 - Kanye West]
It’s crazy how you can go from being Joe Blow
To everybody on your dick, no homo
I bought my whole family whips, no Volvos
Next time I’m in church, please no photos
Police escorts
Everybody passports
This the life that everybody ask for
This a fast life
We are on a crash course
What you think I rap for
To push a fucking Rav-4?
But I know that if I stay stun-ting
All these girls only gonna want one thing
I could spend my whole life good will hun-ting
Only good gon’ come is as good when I’m cumm-ing
She got a ass that’ll swallow up a g-string
And up top, unh…
Two bee stings
And I’m beasting
Off the riesling
And my nigga just made it out the precinct
We give a damn about the drama that you do bring
I’m just tryin’ to change the color on your mood wing
Reebok
Baby
You need to drop some new things
Have you ever had shoes without shoe strings?
What’s that ‘Ye?
Baby, these heels
Is that a may?
What?!
Baby, these wheels
You trippin’ when you ain’t sippin’
Have a refill
You feelin’ like you runnin’, huh?
Now you know how we feel
[Outro - Rihanna]
We gonna run this town tonight!
[Outro - Jay-Z]
