Burberry opened its first store in the British capital in 1891 in London's Haymarket, which is still the headquarters of Burberry. With its traditional and sophisticated design style and product production, Burberry received the "Royal Warrant" badge awarded by Queen Elizabeth in 1955. Today, Burberry’s classic plaid pattern, unique fabric features and elegant tailoring have become synonymous with British style.
In 1856 AD, founder Thomas Burberry opened a clothing store in Basingstoke, Hampshire, England. In 1879, he developed a strong, waterproof and breathable twill fabric - Gabardine. , due to its durability and practical properties, it was soon widely used by British pilots and the army.
In 1901, Burberry designed the first trench coat. When World War I broke out, the Burberry trench coat was designated as the senior military uniform of the British army. In order to suit military purposes, the design was also modified to double-breasted and shoulder-length. It has warm thick sheets on the cover and back, and a D-shaped metal belt loop is attached to the waist to store ammunition, sabers, etc. This practical and functional windbreaker is now the well-known "Trench Coat!" To this day, If you open the British Oxford Dictionary and look up the word "windbreaker", you will find that "Burberry" has become another synonym for windbreaker, which has extraordinary significance!
Another Burberry classic is the plaid pattern composed of beige, red, black and white lines. The plaid pattern originally used on the lining of windbreakers first appeared in 1924, with an elegant and fashionable tone. To this day, Burberry's clothing and accessories series can be said to be two classics alongside the windbreaker.
In the late 1990s, the trend of brand rebirth began in the fashion industry, and Burberry also began to seek breakthroughs in the general environment. Ms. Rose Marie Bravo, the current brand CEO, joined Burberry in 1997 and successively invited Roberto Menichetti and Christopher Bailey to serve as design directors. While embracing the previous philosophies, she reinterpreted Burberry's new power philosophy through unique design thinking. Not only that, the well-known photographer Mario Testino also shot Burberry's fashion advertisement, with supermodels Stella Tennant and Kate Moss. As expected, it received many praises and made the world's attention turn to Burberry again!
In addition to traditional clothing, in response to the advent of the diverse era, Burberry has also extended its design tentacles to other areas, injected classic elements into them, and launched related products to continue the noble personality and lifestyle of traditional Britain. Extend it and gain new life.

Dior (Dior) Christian Dior was born in Normandy, France in 1905. "Dior" in French is a combination of "God" and "gold". Gold later became the most common representative color of the Dior brand. Dior is not a fashion designer. He graduated from Sciences Po in Paris. As the son of an entrepreneur, his passion for art has never faded. After constant ups and downs in the fashion field, in 1946, Dior, who was in his forties, opened his first personal clothing store on Avenue Montaigne in Paris.
In 1947, Dior launched his first fashion series: the sharply gathered waist highlighted the contrast with the curve of the chest, and the calf-length skirt was made of black wool with delicate pleats, plus The exquisitely modified shoulder line subverts everyone's attention. It is called "New Look", which means that Dior brings a brand new look to women. Indeed, Dior rebuilt the beauty of post-war women and established the noble and elegant taste throughout the 1950s. It also deeply imprinted the name of Christian Dior in the hearts of women and the fashion history of the 20th century.
The reason why Dior has become a classic is not only its innovative and elegant design, but also the cultivation of many outstanding young designers. Yves Saint Laurent, Marc Bohan, Gianfranco Ferre and John Galliano successively took over after Dior's death. Their extraordinary design skills pushed Dior's momentum to the top, and they all adhere to the same design spirit - Dior's exquisite tailoring. In 2001, French designer Hedi Slimane took over the renamed DIOR HOMME. His designs emphasized perfect lines, and the ultra-small-sized clothing presented a slightly morbid aesthetic through the lean young male models, which became popular all over the world. .

, jewelry and shoes. It continues to try and innovate but has never failed to achieve its goals. Always maintaining elegant style and taste. In 1947, in the process of rebuilding Paris as the world's fashion center after World War II, Dior made an indelible contribution; in 2005, the 100th anniversary of the birth of Christian Dior, Dior continues to bring people new experiences in life and clothing. .

In 1946, he opened his own store
In 1935, in the early days of independence, Dior experienced a very dark time. Every day he had to search for job opportunities from small advertisements in newspapers. He had no fixed address, sometimes living with friends, sometimes sleeping on the streets, eating hungry and full, and eventually contracted tuberculosis. Despite this, Dior never collapsed.
One day when Dior was deeply frustrated because he could not find a job, a friend in the fashion industry suggested that he draw some fashion design drawings. Unexpectedly, he became very popular. Every design fully demonstrates his unique talent. He tightly grasps the dynamics of life, and every design is so lifelike.
In 1937, he finally became a fashion designer for the "Pignet" company. At this time, World War II broke out, and Dior was forced to leave Paris to reunite with his family. When he returned to Paris, his position as fashion designer of the "Pignet" company had been replaced by others, and he had to become an assistant. At that time, Dior was over 40 years old, and his friends around him were all successful in their careers. It was Dior's turn to make a big move.
Years of trial and error have made Dior mature, and he is clearly aware of his talent. He is a natural designer and has never learned the skills of cutting or sewing, but he understands the concept of cutting and has an extremely keen sense of proportion.
On February 12, 1947, this was a glorious day. Dior held his first high-end fashion show and launched his first fashion series called "New Look". This fashion has a distinctive style: the skirt length no longer touches the floor, emphasizing women's breast augmentation, hip augmentation, slender waist, and graceful shoulder curves, breaking the conservative and rigid lines of postwar women's clothing. This style caused a sensation in Paris and even the entire Western world, leaving a deep impression on people and making Dior famous in the fashion industry. When one model after another appears in front of them, people can hardly believe their eyes: the long skirt with a round table, the slender waist, the towering breasts, and the hat covering half of the eyes slantingly... Suddenly people's eyes lit up, and the ladies sitting in the audience began to feel annoyed and uneasy about the short skirts and jackets they were wearing at that time. Dior was a huge success on this day.
Soon, Dior successfully developed his rising career to the other side of the Atlantic - the United States with his first fashion series "New Fashion". The news quickly spread throughout New York, and Dior finally took root on New York's Seventh Street (a street famous throughout the country). The arrival of Dior brought the unique charm and color of European fashion to the hometown of "Uncle Sam" who was once cut off from Europe due to the war. People are saying goodbye to miniskirts, balloon sleeves, flat heels and cauliflower hats. Dior's designs also broke with the Chanel-style fashion that was popular before the war. Dior's half-covered wide-brimmed hat and rustling long skirt remind people of a more classical era. This is a new style emphasized by Dior.
Dior boldly used black in the second issue of creation. The circumference of the black pure wool dress is as high as 40 meters. Dior named the second issue "Dierame".
Subsequently, Dior planned to develop his business to Cuba, Mexico, Canada, Australia, the United Kingdom and other countries. In just a few years, a huge business network has been established around the world.
In 1947, the first bottle of perfume named "Miss Dior" was released, followed by "Diorama" and "Diorissimo".
The "vertical shape" and "tulip shape" introduced in the 1950s are the manifestations of Dior's design concept of promoting the feminization of fashion.
In 1952, Dior began to relax the waist curve and raise the hem of the skirt.
In 1953, the hemline of the skirt was raised to 40 centimeters above the ground, causing an uproar in European society.
In 1954, the "H" shape designed to reduce the width of the shoulders and increase the hem of the skirt, as well as the "Y-shaped" and "spun-shaped" series released in the same year, all caused a sensation. These simple and youthful linear designs still reflect his slender and gorgeous style and always follow the standards of traditional women.
In 1985, "Poison" came out.
In 1991, "Dune" came out.
In 1995, "DolceVita" came out.
Dior not only restored Paris to its status as a fashion center, but also cultivated two well-known design masters: Pierre Cardin and Yves Saint Laurent. Dior's company also doubled up with newcomers. It is thanks to the efforts of outstanding designers such as Saint Laurent, Mark Bohan, Ferre, and John Galliano that the Dior brand is still popular among people today.

From a high-end leather shop in Italy to a super brand that leads global fashion, from a plummeting family dispute to a reborn rise after Tom Ford took over, Gucci has gone from the clouds to the bottom, and then from the bottom again. The story of reaching the clouds is indeed a legend.
Guccio Gucci, the founder of Gucci, was born in Florence in 1881 and worked as a bellman at the Savoy Hotel in London. In 1921, Guccio Gucci returned to his hometown of Florence and opened a store specializing in leather and harnesses. As the business expanded, a new store opened in Rome's famous Via Condotti. Although there was a shortage of leather raw materials due to the war, Gucci used its creativity at the right time to mass-produce cloth bags, which became very popular. In 1939, Gucci's four sons joined one after another, and Gucci also transformed from a personal business to a family business. In 1953, the first overseas branch opened on 58th Avenue in Manhattan, New York, and Gucci became an international brand. What's more worth mentioning is that Gucci is the ancestor of today's product branding. In order to ensure quality, Gucci printed the brand name on its own products, which was the first initiative in the history of world fashion.
Since its founding in 1921, Gucci has always followed an aristocratic route, with a luxurious style and a slightly tough masculinity.
In 1947, Gucci's bamboo bag with bamboo handles came out. Then, the classic double G logo with the founder's initials, canvas bags lined with red and green ribbons and related leather goods also came out one after another. Gucci became a brand and LV. Tied for the most counterfeited items in the world. The Moccasin shoes with horse bit rings and the Flower Scarf designed for Grace Kelly have repeatedly received praise. Wearing Gucci has already represented a kind of social status and symbol.
The rapid growth of Gucci's business has not always been smooth sailing. After entering the 1970s, it was tired of dealing with the problem of counterfeiting and the struggle for interests within the family, which made the entire company fall into a quagmire. In 1993, the third-generation successor Maurizio sold Gucci, and it was not until former president Domenico De Sole welcomed Tom Ford as design director that things changed. Tom Ford once said: "When talking about the history of Gucci, you can never ignore the movie stars and party celebrities, and I wanted to create a 1990s version of this history." In 1995, Tom Ford chose a popular supermodel to create a minimalist style. The extremely sultry image showed off the sexy fall fashion collection he designed for Gucci on stage. This show was an unprecedented success, triggering a buying frenzy for Gucci around the world. Ford completely changed Gucci's past gorgeous style and injected sexy genes, making Gucci almost the sexiest brand today.
At the farewell show of Gucci Tom Ford in Milan in the autumn and winter of 2004, he held a glass of whiskey in his hand and toasted to the audience. He looked calm and unrestrained, just as sexy and charming as the image he established for Gucci.
