In 1856 when Thomas Burberry was a mere 21 years old, he opened up his first store in Basingstoke , Hampshire , England. Having been an apprentice to a draper, he had become experienced in the outfitting the English townspeople. By the 1870's Burberry had become a staple store within the community and to the visiting sportsmen alike.  The invention of a weatherproof gabardine fabric in the 1880's was a huge turning point in outerwear durability, causing Burberry to patent his invention in 1888. In 1891, Burberry opened his first London store, which today houses the corporate headquarters; and, he also had introduced the first Burberry icon piece, the Tielocken officer's coat, a.k.a. the classic trench coat. The 1900's consisted of designed pieces for artic explorers and military personnel, marking Burberry's tap into the needs of the avid outdoorsmen. The infamous, white, camel and black check was developed and trademarked in 1924 for the lining of his trench coats, he then expanded into designing for aviators and their aviation garments.

In 1950, Burberry was awarded The Royal Warrant from Her Majesty the Queen, making him even more renowned. It was not until 1967, that his trademarked plaid design was developed on the likes of scarves, umbrellas and luggage pieces.

The 1970's and 1980's consisted of a major global market expansion with a key store opening in New York, followed by several other stores opening across the continental United States. Thus, the Princess of Wales awarding the Burberry company with The Royal Warrant in 1989.

By the late 90's and into 2000, Burberry's new management team launched innovative designs, as well a fresh marketing campaign, bringing the company some more distinguished awards. Also recently launched were several European and North American stores, in addition to a new fragrance line. Nonetheless, the infamous plaid design that Thomas Burberry first introduced in the 1920's is still the hottest key design icon to this day.
