Burberry Quotes

“I don't have very much interest in trends and fashions. I don't follow the fashion shows and stuff like that into my real life.

Whether we choose Birkenstocks or whether we choose Burberry - it all signifies something and it's really interesting to me.”

I had short black hair, hardly any eyebrows, I looked very very thin and he went, "We need to put Douglas in a campaign." So four days later, I was shooting a Burberry campaign because he had seen me looking crazy from the show so that was kind of funny.”

“Like all young reporters - brilliant or hopelessly incompetent - I dreamed of the glamorous life of the foreign correspondent: prowling Vienna in a Burberry trench coat, speaking a dozen languages to dangerous women, narrowly escaping Sardinian bandits - the usual stuff that newspaper dreams are made of.”
