| Burberry
was founded in 1856 when 21-year-old Thomas Burberry, a former draper's
apprentice, opened his own store in Basingstoke, Hampshire, England. By
1870, the business had established itself by focusing on the development
of outdoors attire. In 1880, Real Burberry
invented gabardine, a hardwearing, water-resistant yet breathable fabric,
in which the yarn is waterproofed before weaving. The Gabardine was patented
in 1888. Authentic Burberry was the original name, but then the company soon switched
to using the name Burberrys, after many customers from around the world
began calling it Burberrys of London. This name is still visible on many
older Burberry products. 1908 Burberry's advertisement In 1891, Burberry

was the site of Burberry's corporate headquarters. Tags: burberry
