EDITORS COMMENTS
Step into the past with this advertisement for a Burberry motor-coat from 1913. The illustration, published by the Illustrated London News Ltd, showcases a woman in full length, elegantly dressed in a Burberry motor-coat, ready for a motoring adventure. The coat, designed with a cape-like collar, is made from airlight materials, making it suitable for both warm and cold weather conditions. As the world was gearing up for the First World War, fashion trends began to reflect the changing times. Motorcoats, like the one depicted in this advertisement, became increasingly popular among women motorists. These coats were not only stylish but also practical, offering protection against the elements and ensuring comfort during long journeys. The Burberry brand, known for its iconic check pattern, was already well-established by 1913. However, this advertisement highlights the versatility and functionality of their motor-coats, which were designed to meet the specific needs of the modern woman. The coat's weatherproof features, combined with its chic design, made it a must-have accessory for any motoring outfit. This advertisement is a testament to the enduring appeal of Burberry coats and their ability to adapt to the changing times. From the early motorcoats of 1913 to the contemporary designs of today, Burberry continues to be a leader in innovative and stylish outerwear.
