Burberry manufactures luxury clothing and other apparel, and is a top British fashion house.

Thomas Burberry a former draper’s apprentice founded Burberry in 1856 by opening his own store in Basingstoke, Hampshire, England as a 21-year-old.

The brand grew in popularity in the 1970’s with the British football casual cult, however more recently it has been associated with chavs and hooligans.

To make matters worse actress Danniella Westbrook made the brand a national joke when she was photographed with her young daughter wearing matching Burberry outfits.

In 1997 Rose Marie Bravo was made Chief Executive Officer to revitalise the brand and she brought in Kate Moss  to star in an advertising campaign, along with many new designs and products.
