Not so long ago, the world congratulated the Barbury fashion house on its one and a half anniversary. The clothes of this manufacturer are famous for impeccable quality, fidelity to style and originality of design decisions. Today, the products of this brand are one of the most sought after in the best fashion boutiques in the world.
Burberry: The Beginning
In 1856, the first Barbury store was opened . The clothes presented there were invented and created by the owner. It was Thomas Berbury. This was the beginning of the history of the brand, which is popular all over the world today.
Thomas by that time was already a banner. It was his pen who owned such a magnificent creation as gabardine - a waterproof, wear-resistant and beautiful fabric, which is in demand today. At first, Thomas Burberry sewed a military uniform from gabardine, making adjustments to the design. By the way, just then and just like that the famous trench coat was born, which later migrated from army barracks to wardrobes of urban mods. But this was not limited to! Once, it occurred to Thomas to work not only on the appearance, but also on the "inner world" of clothing - and he set about inventing a pattern for lining. "Why not make it into a cage by mixing white, red, black and sand?" - once thought a brilliant tailor. No sooner said than done. Today this ornament is recognizable and beloved, it is worn with pleasure and even faked. It was called Nova and is considered one of the main attributes of the Barbury style. Clothing, bags, gloves, scarves, jewelry - wherever you can meet the famous black-red-sand cage!
Directions
Today, the manufacturer works in two directions:
- Burberry London - haute couture clothing line. She is shown at the most prestigious fashion shows. Creative director of the brand Christopher Bailey is engaged in its development. Needless to say, clothes that fall into this category cost fabulous money?
- Burberry Prorsum is a wearable line close to the everyday fashion of a modern city. Here one of the main rules of “Barbury” is in effect: clothes should be comfortable. In this series cozy things prevail, a bit reminiscent of the uniform of British soldiers of Her Majesty's army of the last century.
Not only clothing for adults is famous and in demand, but also other areas of Barbery's creativity: children's clothing, jewelry, and numerous accessories. The manufacturer pays great attention to the development of models for young dandies, taking them with all seriousness and seeing their future customers in them from childhood.
