Burberry trench coats are among the most famous fashion items. For more than 150 years, Burberry has been creating iconic trench coats. They are made of gabardine — a breathable, weather-resistant, durable fabric. Burberry knows its business — their clothing not only protects well from bad weather, it is also very stylish. Items from the current season are still completely relevant. Gabardine trench coats continue to sell out, and the new collections include various fleece items.

The best fabric of the Burberry brand

The fashion brand Burberry is one of the most luxurious brands in the world. It is valued at 5 billion dollars. About 500 stores in more than 50 countries around the world make this brand legendary and widely known.

 

Gabardine fabric has caused a real fashion revolution since its creation. This unusual gabardine is a tightly woven, water-resistant, but also breathable material. It is widely used to make windbreakers, suits , coats, trousers, etc. 

 

The Burberry brand outfitted famous people of the 20th century during their dangerous expeditions around the world. For example, Ernest Shackleton, who led an expedition to Antarctica, and Roald Amundsen, who was the first person to reach the South Pole.

 

It was British officers who made the Burberry trench coat popular during the First World War. Since then, the Burberry brand has also become widespread among civilians. 

 

Despite the fact that the trench coat was created for military purposes, everyone liked the coat and it continues to remain relevant for a century! They appear in films, they are worn by celebrities, for example, Audrey Hepburn in Breakfast at Tiffany's, Meryl Streep in Kramer vs. Kramer, or Kate Moss, who wore them at almost any time of the year! This type of clothing suits any look — from jeans and a crop top to tight evening dresses.

 

Over time, the brand expanded and began producing bags, scarves, men's and women's clothing, and footwear.
