Luxury fashion house [Burberry](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/special-vinyl-record) unveils a captivating design for the Spring/Summer 2019 season in the form of the 'WHY DID THEY KILL BAMBI?' shirt inspired by the [iconic 1979 song by Sex Pistols](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/freaks-store-2), 'Who Killed Bambi?' Designer Ricardo Tisci draws historic references with the influence, noting that the tune was also co-written by designer Vivienne Westwood, who followed the journey by working with Tisci at Burberry.

The [graphic print](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/saint-mxxxxxx) also functions as a statement, marking the concept that Burberry is embarking on its fur-free production on future collections. The top is a short-sleeve silhouette constructed from cotton twill and has a half zipper at the front held with leather hardware. The structure is boxy, with two images of the porcelain deer to round it all out.
