Mulberry rocks in Brighton

Paying its respects to the bygone days of the great British seaside holiday is the theme of Mulberry’s forthcoming spring/summer 2012 collection.

A new campaign by the UK’s leading luxury handbag retailer, shot on the historic Brighton Pier, evokes nostalgia for an era that was simpler and reminds us that, once upon a time, a holiday in blighty was all that the populous desired, as well as being able to afford.

Then again, on this last point, perhaps times haven’t changed as much as we’d like to think.
