TATLER FOCUS

We follow fashion enthusiast Yenny Then as she journeys through Tokyo and journals her experience at the Burberry: The Cape Reimagined exhibition, which features elaborate couture capes that hearken to the brand’s history.

I don my monochromatic Burberry outfit, pile my hair in an insouciant top-knot, and celebrate the opening of the Burberry: The Cape Reimagined exhibition, in Omotesando, Tokyo.

(Left to right) So many Instagrammable spots at the uber-trendy ryokan-style boutique hotel, Hoshinoya Tokyo; My husband Desmond is a great #instagramhusband; Trying to contain my excitement while getting my face prepped for the big night

(Left to right)Who says I cant have my cake and eat it too?; When in Japan, do as the Japanese do, right? #burberryfornails

(Left to right) The Embroidered Wing Cape is truly showstopping with layers of embroidered sequins on silk emulating abirds wings; The magic is in the details at Burberry, as seen in these capes crafted from delicate lace and macrame, and the balls of yarn knitted together like a modern sculpture

(Left to right) I simply cannot visit Burberrys flagship store in Omotesando and not try on its signature trench! I am quite smitten by thismodern update on the classic trench; Dinner at Hoshinoya is a sensory experience of texture, colour and form; The lush, baroque-like setting of the UkaiTei restaurant is (almost) as impressiveas the food

(Left to right) Pretending to be distracted when all Ireally want to do is buy everything!; When you need to fit into your outfit butthe temptation is strong
