Burberry vintage wholesale

History of Burberry

The Burberry brand was born with the aim of creating clothes that would protect people from the British weather, characterized by constant rain and wind. Thomas Burberry is the one who created this textile company in 1856, giving it his own name. Some 20 years later, Burberry managed to revolutionize the textile world with the invention of gabardine cotton. This fabric is breathable, resistant and, above all, waterproof. In addition, it is very light in comparison to the rainwear worn at the time, which was uncomfortable and heavy. The gabardine is the garment that marks the beginning of the success of this brand. The gabardine cotton is the element from which they begin to develop and innovate within the gabardine. First, the Tielocken coat appeared in 1912, with a belt and buckle closure and a button on the collar. However, its most characteristic coat, the trench coat, appeared during the years of the First World War. This trench coat was created with a more functional design, designed for military use.

Achievements of the Burberry brand

During the following years, Burberry established itself as a quality brand, associated with the elegance and comfort of the English country gentry. In fact, in 1955, Queen Elizabeth II granted Burberry a Royal Warrant as a supplier of waterproof products. Later, in 1990, the Prince of Wales granted Burberry a Royal Warrant as a clothing supplier.

Burberry and celebrities

Another reason for its success and fame is its use by show business people. It is worth mentioning the immortalization of the trench coat by Humphrey Bogart in the film Casablanca. In addition, Hollywood would be responsible for increasing the fame of this garment by gangster movies where these crooks wore this look. Later, it would be The Beatles who would make the trench coat fashionable, bringing it closer to a younger audience. Today, celebrities like David and Victoria Beckham, or Cara Delevigne have been ambassadors of the Burberry brand. Its development of innovative garments and its royal authorizations have made Burberry a luxury fashion brand. When you wear a Burberry garment you know you are wearing a product of the highest quality.
