You get a fabulous Summer campaign that neatly mixes modern festival flavour with a nostalgic nod to the past. On top of the great images, the bands also recorded four exclusive tracks that will be released throughout the month of April with a matching video film on set in London.

Check out the first of the clips to be released:

As for the eyewear itself, the styles reflect classic shapes like aviators for men and women with thin metal temples and bridge, various smokey colours for the lenses and flexible temple tips in pale gold, matte black, nickle and dark nickle and dark silver. There’s also a bit of tonal enamel work along the frame sides.

Grab a pair of classic shades and sit back and enjoy the sounds of the new “Cool Britania” that’s the work of Burberry, once again.
