Burnett NY Resort 2020

For a brand that has been on the market barely two years, Burnett NY is making a lot of traction. With collections already in Bergdorf Goodman and other high-end retailers, Burnett NY is on its way.

For its first resort collection, Burnett NY created a luxury collection for that busy professional woman who might be taking a R&R, not only in a temperate climate, but also in a major city or the American Rivera, The California coastline. For resort 2020 the design duo or Emily Burnett and Sterling McDavid have placed their customer in the glow of western sunsets, Mediterranean-like architecture, and the white stucco rooftops of Santa Barbara.

Though their customer may not be doing any work or going to corporate meetings at their resort destination, by their apparel anyone can tell that Burnett NY woman is a high-powered alpha type. And the power suit is a key element of this resort 2020 collection. There is the outstanding metallic power suit and there is also the pearl crepe blazer with embroidered yoke with pearl crepe pant with tie-belt.

Like many luxury brands for the resort 2020 season Burnett NY’s resort collection includes a significant number of jumpsuits. However, Burnet NY’s resort jumpsuits are more sophisticated and elegant than in most other resort 2020 collections. Particular standout is the ocean crepe jumpsuit with ocean crepe blazer.

The citrus palette of lemon and peach, pastel seafoam blue and nudes that define this collection is aptly applied to softly tailored suits with fluid lines in crepe and linen. There are also architecturally pleated chiffon gowns that are perfect for an evening out. And the day dresses make for a complete resort 2020 wardrobe.
