About us

Born from innovation, Burberry is a global luxury brand with a rich British heritage.  Founded in 1856, our brand is underpinned by our founder’s passion for the outdoors. Thomas Burberry invented the innovative rain-ready fabric gabardine to protect explorers from the elements. In doing so, he created the foundation for the iconic Burberry trench coat, which remains core to the business even today.  Guided by our history of exploration and our shared belief that ‘creativity opens spaces’, our purpose is to unlock the power of imagination to push boundaries and open new possibilities for our people, our customers and our communities. As a values-driven brand, we are committed to creating the next generation of sustainable luxury and believe that diversity, equity and inclusion are essential to fulfilling our purpose. Fostering an inclusive culture where differences are valued and embraced enables us to be more creative, engaged and make a more meaningful contribution to the world around us.

    The Burberry Check was first used as a lining for our raincoats in the 1920s. However, it wasn't until the 1960s, when a buyer at our Paris store, repurposed the lining to wrap luggage and create an umbrella cover, that the first Burberry Check accessory was created.    Over the decades, the Burberry Check has seen many iterations. In the 1970s, the Cashmere Check Scarf was introduced and has remained one of our best-known accessories. The Burberry Check also became a prominent feature in our ready-to-wear campaigns throughout the 1980s and 1990s and is now a registered trademark.     Discover more about The Burberry Check here: https://lnkd.in/eBi-wrXP

    A closer look at the making of the Knight bag.    The Knight bag takes inspiration from our house signifier, the Equestrian Knight Design (EKD). This emblem is playfully reimagined through the steel horse-clip, a key distinguishing feature of the bag.     Crafted with a slouchy silhouette, the bag is formed on a wood-panelled mould and reinforced with a soft external layer, trim and inner lining.     Its ring-shaped hardware supports the bag’s fold over design, allowing it to effortlessly transition from a relaxed slouchy style to a more structured tote shape.

    A closer look at the making of the Rocking Horse bag.    Inspired by the classic childhood toy, the Rocking Horse bag features a sleek, curved shape that makes it a timeless addition to the Burberry family.     The bag is meticulously handcrafted from naturally grained leather by artisans in Italy. Its saddle shape is achieved by using precise cutting techniques and a hand-curved wooden mould.    Its distinctive lowercase ‘b’ closure, featuring a pivoting steel fastening for opening and closing, introduces a new brand motif.     Discover the Rocking Horse bag here: https://lnkd.in/eyQxD2ax
