Description
Brian Kitson's Burberry Days recounts his unexpected journey as an international travelling salesman for the iconic fashion house. Joining the company in 1958, he spent over twenty years researching its distinguished past and exploring the origins of its emblematic trench coat and the familiar house check. As a salesman throughout the 1960s and '70s, Kitson shares his adventures and insights into the world of high fashion. He also delves into the reasons behind Britain's enduring success in the international fashion industry, despite being home to many talented designers and skilled workforce. This book offers a unique perspective on Burberry's history and its place in the global fashion landscape.
