Earlier this year, British luxury fashion house Burberry staged the world's first fashion show in 3D.

Now the team behind the campaign is bringing 3D innovation to their latest advertising campaign. 
           
The company has released a new online feature which allows viewers to physically move the models and Burberry products.

With a click of the mouse, people can change angles and move in various directions, getting up close and personal to the clothes and accessories.

"It was very simple. I felt that a flat image was a flat image and how could we make it more three dimensional? We just streamed the show live in 3D to Dubai, LA, Paris, Tokyo and we wanted to try to get some of that same buzz. We had the most unbelievable reaction from streaming that's show in 3D and so we wanted to get that same experience with the ad campaign."

Bailey says since the success of their 3D show in London in February, the company is looking at ways to build up the brand.

Despite being over 150 years old, Burberry wants to create technological advances within the luxury goods market.

"The objective is to get closer to people. I think that's what the web does, it makes the world very small. For example, we have a fashion show whether it's here in London or Milan, and maybe we get whatever, 1500 people come to that show. As soon as you live stream it, you're talking about millions of people. So all of the sudden you have to think in a different way, that 'Ok now it's not just the industry. It's not just buyers, it's not just press, it's now the public.'"

Retail blogger Moira Benigson says the merging of boundaries between fashion, technology, art and music, forms a significant trend.

"This might sound dramatic but I feel that we are in living history. Who knows where its going to take us to? Who knows how you close a sale these days? It might not be today. People are very discerning. What do people want out of brands? It might not only be the purchase and that's what's really key to keeping the longevity of a brand these days - what else does it do besides sell you something?"

Last year Burberry launched a kind of mini-social networking site, focussing on their signature item, the trench coat. 

Called "Art of the Trench", the aim was to drive internet sales by engaging technology savvy consumers.

Fashion blogger "The Sartorialist" was recruited to help with the site. It allows trench coat lovers to upload pictures of themselves or others wearing the famous rainproof jacket.

The company have also launched an e-commerce site which allows consumers to buy fashions directly off the runway and into their closets in 4-6 weeks.
            
Burberry beat forecasts with a 24 percent rise in its first quarter underlying revenue.

This is credited in part to the emphasise on on-line shopping, something other luxury brands were initially nervous to start.

Burberry's focus on emerging markets is also a factor.
