Favorite Holiday Food & Fashion Video: Burberry with Kristin Scott Thomas, Matt Smith, M.I.A and Naomi Campbell

In this time when it’s not clear what Holiday food and fashion events are going to be like, especially family gatherings and dinners, it’s nice to look back on a era (2018/2019) when Burberry was able to do an incredible Holiday photo-shoot and 90-second film featuring Kristin Scott Thomas, Matt Smith, M.I.A and Naomi Campbell (and her mother).

The video was directed by British artist Juno Calypso.
