Newly-appointed Artistic Director of Burberry, Riccardo Tisci has announced he will be teaming up with British punk icon and legendary designer Vivienne Westwood and her longtime&nbsp;partner Andreas Kronthaler for a collaboration that no one saw coming.

&quot;Vivienne was one of the first designers who made me dream to become a designer,&quot; Tisci&nbsp;wrote in an announcement made to his&nbsp;<a href="https://www.instagram.com/p/Bk43K8On9Ap/?taken-by=riccardotisci17" target="_blank">Instagram</a>. &quot;I am SO honoured to announce a new Burbs collaboration with the original British PUNK.&quot;

Of course, he followed the sentiment with a fitting Union&nbsp;Jack emoji sandwiched between two black hearts.&nbsp;

During his time at Givenchy, Tisci&#39;s design aesthetic was widely influenced by musicians in the hip-hop and R&amp;B cadre, and naturally, Westwood was the definitive image-maker of the ever-subversive Punk movement. To see these two sensibilities come together will surely be a sight to see.

We have no doubt the creative m&eacute;nage &agrave; trois&nbsp;will bring&nbsp;something new and unexpected to an increasingly predictable fashion landscape, and for that, we are grateful.&nbsp;
