Burberry opens in Lebanon

Wednesday, 27 January 2010

Quintessentially British fashion is still taking the fashion industry by storm and not only within the borders of the UK. Burberry recently launched its first store of 250 square metres on Allenby Street in the Beirut Souks in Lebanon. The interior design concept developed by Burberry Chief Creative Officer, Christopher Bailey, features British materials and themes used throughout in a contemporary way. The store features men's and women's ready-to-wear from the Burberry London and Burberry Brit collections, as well as Burberry accessories including the Burberry Sling bag, jewellery, shoes and fragrance, timepieces and sunglasses lines.

Headquartered in London, Burberry was founded in 1856.
