An Insight into the History of Burberry Brand
British Burberry brand has always been recognizable. It is highly cherished by celebrities preferably for its inherent aristocracy and unquestionable quality. Though Burburry is considered a symbol of the British Empire it won an international fame. Today, it is difficult to believe that girl's dresses or rebellious boy's jumpers from Burberry kids collection took origin from working clothes.
The brand name comes from the name of its founder, Thomas Burberry, who launched the famous-to-be fashion house in 1856 in the small town of Basingstoke. First, it was a small shop selling dresses but later Thomas Burberry used an innovative technology which allowed to impart specific properties of impermeability to ordinary cotton fabric. The new material got the name "gabardine" and soon Burberry's company got specialized on clothes for active sport such as hiking, fishing, etc. made of this unique fabric. That time Thomas Burberry could hardly imagine his brand would get so popular that there will be Burrberry for kids outlets one day.
The central place among the most popular models of the brand, of course, takes a gabardine raincoat created in the early 20th century named "slipon". Later, during the First World War, when Burberry house got a large order on the production of uniform for the British Royal Air Force, "slipon" raincoats had undergone some changes in its cut such as a large back yoke, shoulder straps and pockets with laps. The very same coat was renamed into a "trench coat". As a distinctive marking of the military uniform it was decided to have an image of a knight in armor on the flag background with the motto «Prorsum» («go forward!"). That knight became a brand logo of the Burberry brand, which can be found even on Burberry kids clothing.
Another recognizable peculiarity of Burberry brand is its trademark check fabric. The first variant of it was created in 1920 and got the name of Nova check. Being the backing fabric it later appeared on the front side of the outfits. Today there are tree versions of this fabric and each of it is popular. It can be seen on accessories, Burberry for kids clothing and even on shoes created by this known
fashion house.
Nowadays Burberry is one of the most popular brands known on the fashion market for several decades. As in the legendary "Breakfast at Tiffany's'' film main characters were wearing Burberry, now celebrities prefer the classic British brand, too. The apparel of Burberry Autumn/Winter collection were seen on Kate Hudson, Keira Knightley, Mia Wasikowska, Claire Danes, Kate Bosworth and even Kate Moss, who posed in Burberry for Vogue in September 2015.

Romeo Beckham, a son of an iconic football player David Beckham, is a little ambassador of Burberry brand and is often seen in Burberry kids outlets in public. This year he even took part in Burberry Christmas advertisement campaign, which has already got traditional.
