Burberry Launches Its 2015 ‘Festive’ Campaign Commemorating Billy Elliot
The brand is ready for the holidays with an all-British cast of actors, musicians, and models.
Tis the season, and Burberry knows how to celebrate.
This year, the British luxury brand is celebrating the 15th anniversary of Billy Elliot, and have enlisted the help of Sir Elton John, James Corden, Julie Walters, Romeo Beckham, Naomi Campbell, Rosie Huntington-Whiteley, Michelle Dockery, James Bay, George Ezra, and Toby Huntington-Whiteley to help mark the occasion.
"Billy Elliot is an incredible film full of so much joy and energy, so it was a real thrill and a great honour to be able to celebrate its 15 year anniversary through our Festive campaign," said Christopher Bailey, Burberry Chief Creative and Chief Executive Officer in a release. "It was also a huge privilege to work with such amazing and iconic British talent - the cast are quite simply some of the biggest names in film, music, and fashion and it was so much fun working with them all to make this special film."
To further honor Billy Elliot, Burberry is also making a donation of PS500,000 to be divided between the charities Place2Be, and the County Durham Community foundation, both of which have projects on reducing barriers to education, training, and employment in the local area.
