Burberry

Why do people insist that Burberry has always been chavy? From the image on the right, I'm guessing a chav has never so much as set foot through that door. Burberry is a classic representation of modern and antique England, keeping traditional clothing simple and comfortable. If you can't afford the prices, then don't buy; if you think it is chavy, then don't buy. It's as simple as that. It doesn't take a genius NOT to shop somewhere. Lovely shop, simple in design, fabulous quality clothing. Will definitely shop there again.

I don't understand why people complain about the price - if you can't afford it, then don't buy. Burberry is fashion again - men's coats, bags, jerseys, and women's shoes, knitwear, handbags... GREAT collection, with loads of must-have items.

A few months ago, my wife bought a rather pricey Burberry handbag and within 2 weeks of using it, it broke! We took it back to the shop but they seemed disinterested in repairing it, and to that end offered no after-sales assistance. Nice one Burberry, I don't think we'll be shopping at your stores any more.

Excellent quality and classy. You don't have to buy a cap if you don't want to, so stop complaining about it being for chavs - they can't afford to shop there, they shop at the market!

eljay2001 obviously hasn't a clue. Burberry Prorsum is the greatest design house in England. OK, maybe you sometimes see the odd 'chav' wearing some fake plaid cap or jacket etc, but get real! Their apparel is classy, sexy and yet classic. Most of the lines are made within the United Kingdom and their designers are bloody genius! Haven't you picked up a Vogue or GQ lately?

Beautiful products. I would buy most of their stock. Classy and wearable.

Prosum is OK, but come on people, it's for chavs only. There are plenty of other British designers.

I loved it there. I get all my nieces and nephews the clothes here. They always look great. I love to show them off in the clothes no matter the price.

The Prosum men's line is excellent but the London stores simply don't carry enough of the pieces-the London line is pretty awful (unless you stick to the check as a trench lining).

It's a good store with a good selection of clothing (a little over-priced).

Unfortunately, the "nouvelle rich" tend to buy all the flashy stuff they can find there in order to show off. For example: I went there to buy a couple of scarfs and what I saw was, at least eight ladies wearing a bag, a jacket, a shirt, a hat, a watch, and trousers, all with Burberry check. But well, what can we do?

Avoid the cheaper items but the more expensive goods are worth buying and showing off.

Absolutely fabulous and beautiful. I think it's great and not at all 'chavy' .

Very good quality.

Avoid at all costs - the label has returned to being stuff for tourists.

The famous trench coats and "not-so-famous-but-still-great" duffel coats are sadly the only items worth buying. The now infamous check has been copied to death so steer clear of it, most clothes are over-priced and not really a great investment.
