“We wanted to celebrate 170 years of Burberry with a proper party. Family, friends, great gifts and everyone dressed up,” said Burberry’s chief creative officer Daniel Lee.
Throughout the campaign, Burberry highlights key pieces from its cashmere-focused festive collection, which include the Kensington trenchcoat, made from lightweight cashmere with a brushed finish, check cashmere scarves available in more than 40 colors, and a new Blackwatch Check design that draws on historic tartan.
The campaign also shines a light on the brand’s Festive 2026 childrenswear offering, such as mini-me versions of gabardine trenchcoats and down-filled puffer jackets, and a recent stationery collaboration with Smythson on notebooks, folding chess and backgammon sets, as well as knitted check sweaters and check-woven bandanas for pets.
