Know Everything About Burberry Handbags - 150 Years Old And Still
Going Strong
For some
reason, no one talks much about clothes inventions. Inventors do not
just create gadgets, but are clothes innovators as well.
Burberry is
one of the most recognized fashion brands. The Burberry brand was
founded in 1856 by Thomas, a draper's aide, who opened his first
store in Basingstoke, Hampshire, England. By the late 1800s, Thomas'
business was well established, and he had become known for some of
his clothing inventions. Thomas had invented a new material he called
Gabardine, which was breathable, tear proof, and waterproof. He later
created the trench coat, which became very popular amongst the
soldiers fighting in the Boer War in Africa. Burberry is presently
one of the most recognized names in luxury
clothes.
