Burberry has launched a new collection of scarves and trench coats, created in partnership with Highgrove Gardens, which surround the private residence of His Majesty King Charles III and Queen Camilla.

The collection marks the third partnership between Burberry and Highgrove and honours the thoughtful, steadfast work of King Charles III and The King’s Foundation, a charity founded by His Majesty which acts as custodian of Highgrove Gardens. The drawings for the scarves and linings of the trench coats were created by British artist Holly Mills, a graduate of the Royal Drawing School.

Drawn at Highgrove Gardens during the peak of summer’s bloom, Holly’s vibrant illustrations capture the species-rich meadows and delphinium – the favourite flower of His Majesty. As a Royal Warrant holder and British heritage brand, Burberry shares the commitment of The King’s Foundation in supporting young British artists, whilst ensuring the legacy of craft and artistry is passed onto the next generation.

Made in Italy, the four scarves contain organic silk and are finished with hand-rolled edges, ensuring long-lasting quality. The Castleford trench coat is a new style introduced by Chief Creative Officer Daniel Lee. It is woven from gabardine, an invention by Thomas Burberry in 1879, at our mill in Keighley and is assembled at our factory in Castleford, Yorkshire. The Castleford’s outer uses 100% organic cotton and is available in two colours, Hunter and Ivy. Together, these carefully crafted pieces represent Burberry and Highgrove’s commitment to craftsmanship and responsible business practices.

In 1913, a selection of Burberry women’s summer coats featured floral silk for their linings. These styles were recommended for fashionable functions during the summer months.
