Burberry
Thomas Burberry, a teenage draper's apprentice, created Burberry in 1856. With the intention of producing garments that would shield people from the severe British weather, he founded his first store in Basingstoke, England. Burberry created gabardine, a resilient and breathable fabric that was water-resistant, in 1879. Burberry became a household name because of this cloth, which transformed the rainwear market.
Many factors contribute to Burberry's popularity. First of all, its goods are renowned for their excellent quality and craftsmanship. Second, the brand has a long history and a strong connection to Britishness. Surprisingly, the brand has been worn by famous people and fashion icons, which has increased public awareness of it.
Trench coats, which were initially created by Burberry for the British military, are widely recognized. Its trench coat was worn by celebrities including Audrey Hepburn, Marlene Dietrich, and Humphrey Bogart on the silver screen. The company also creates a huge selection of additional apparel, accessories, and fragrances.
Burberry products are generally considered to be high-end fashion. Prices vary depending on the item, but a typical trench coat can cost upwards of $1,000. Other items, such as scarves and handbags, can cost several hundred dollars.
