‘When designing the Olympia, I was thinking about creating the perfect form of a handbag – something that could capture the essence of femininity. So, for the campaign, I wanted to celebrate three incredible women in my life who embody the power and beauty of feminine energy: FKA twigs, Kendall and Shygirl. These women are amazingly talented and confident, and have a natural fierceness and determination to carve their own paths, each freely expressing their originality through their creativity.’ - Riccardo Tisci, Burberry Chief Creative Officer
Burberry reveals its campaign for the Olympia bag – a signature for the house, designed by Riccardo Tisci. The bag has a crescent curve that moulds closely against the body, an athletic aura told through its defined arc. The shape nods to the past with a twist of modern classicism. The shoulder bag is sculpted from smooth leather and crafted in Italy.
The campaign stars FKA twigs, Kendall and Shygirl. In a series of images and videos set against a minimalistic backdrop of marble and Burberry beige, the three women embody feminine energy, strength, sensuality and freedom of expression.
Riccardo worked with a team of iconic creative talents including renowned photographers and film directors Inez and Vinoodh, stylist Ib Kamara, make-up artist Kabuki Magic, and hairstylists Jimmy Paul and Lacy Redway.
The Olympia bag is available in a variety of sizes, styles and colourways from classic warm sand, black and burgundy to vibrant marigold yellow, pale blue and juniper green. It is available to purchase globally in Burberry stores and online.
