DESCRIPTION

More than 165 years of innovation, adventure and a unique expression of Britishness come to life in Burberry, a richly illustrated volume filled with material from the Burberry archive and beyond. Five chapters, featuring 200 illustrations, depict Burberry’s evolution from a family-run company, founded in 1856, to a renowned global luxury brand in 2022.

Each chapter explores a range of notable events and the emblems for which Burberry is renowned. Think inspiring explorers, signature trench coats and a distinct British identity. Today, the trench and signature Check remain instantly recognizable house codes, elevated, reworked and reconstructed in every collection – but always emblematic of Burberry’s history, craftsmanship and enduring British style. This volume, from Assouline’s Legends Collection, is a must-have for anyone who appreciates the enduring British style and craftsmanship that has made Burberry a household name.

Burberry is a story of creativity, exploration, innovation and community – all of which
continue to be at the heart of the brand. In unearthing a dormant treasure trove,
countless gold nuggets have been revealed. This book, the only one to be endorsed
by the brand in recent times, presents a panorama of the company’s extraordinary
heritage, which deserves to be widely celebrated. It’s the stuff of legends.
