The iconic Burberry check was first used to line the British heritage house’s raincoats in the 1920s. Since then, the unmistakable tartan design has seen many incarnations. This brings us to today’s Burberry check that showcases bold and colourful criss-cross patterns.
The refreshing variation appears on a selection of clothes, accessories and bags. For example, the statement-making Mini Rocking Horse bag that rocks up in new checkered colourways for the season. Made in Italy, the cotton-blend jacquard-weave bag also comes with a smooth leather lining.
A petite version of the Rocking Horse, the mini size boasts the same distinctive curved silhouette that’s a nod to the childhood rocking horse. For added versatility, it comes with an adjustable leather strap that lets you toggle easily between shoulder and crossbody wear.
The structured piece measures a compact 19 cm by 16 cm but fits more than one expects. You can comfortably fit the must-have phone-key-SLG trifecta, before securing it with the b insignia hardware on the fold-over flap.
Priced at SGD2650, Burberry’s Mini Rocking Horse comes in an assortment of new checkered colours. Think Black, Knight and Lichen, which are available alongside Flax, Ivy and Peach. Which hue will you be saddling up with?
