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.
Founded in Paris in 1994 by Prosper and Martine Assouline, Assouline is the first luxury brand on culture. It began with the desire to create a new, contemporary style of book, using the couple's experienced eye for visually rich stories and compelling narratives.
Guided by their passion for knowledge, culture and travel, the Assoulines have since expanded their vision to 1,700 titles in three main collections, along with special editions and unique library accessories—a grand oeuvre of inspiring creations. Throughout the last quarter of a century, the brand has established a network of international boutiques in prominent locations across the globe.
With a distinguished team of creative talents—which includes the founders' son Alexandre—the brand continues to reinvent the notion of true luxury. Assouline’s roster of collaborators includes some of the world’s most respected brands, artists, photographers, writers and designers.
