The Burberry Check was first used to line our raincoats in the 1920s, but it was the 1960s that saw it become the unmistakable Burberry signature we know today.
Over the decades, the Burberry Check has seen many iterations.
The Burberry Check is a marker of our history, our craftsmanship and enduring British style.
The Classic Check Cashmere scarf was introduced in the 1970s and has become one of our best-known accessories. The check was then used for ready-to-wear – featuring prominently in our campaigns throughout the 1980s and 1990s – and is now a registered trademark.
The Rainbow check – a colourful reimagination that celebrates the LGBTQIA+ community – was introduced in 2018.
Under the creative direction of Daniel Lee, the Burberry Check has been reimagined in new colourways.
