Burberry brings its trench to the V&A
Burberry celebrates 170 years of history with The Burberry Trench: Crafting an Icon, a free exhibition at London’s Victoria and Albert Museum. The exhibition brings together previously unseen pieces from the maison’s archives with the museum’s textile collection, tracing the trench coat’s evolution from Thomas Burberry’s invention of waterproof gabardine to its transformation into a fashion icon.
The exhibition also features reinterpretations of the silhouette by designers including Christopher Bailey and Daniel Lee, showing how a garment created for functionality became one of the most recognizable codes of British fashion.
Open through January 3, 2027, the exhibition also sets the stage for a broader collaboration between Burberry and the V&A, including a permanent gallery sponsored by the brand, planned for 2028.
