In the News: Burberry creative head wins Brit Designer of Year

Chief Creative Officer Christopher Bailey won the 2009 Designer of the Year prize at the British Fashion Awards held at The Royal Courts of Justice in London last Wednesday night.

Burberry, who last month reported better than expected second-quarter revenue forecasts, said it expected to open about 15 mainline stores over the full year. This is in addition to the 122 retail outlets, 255 concessions, 90 franchise stores, and an e-commerce business in over 25 countries worldwide. Bailey is responsible for the design of all Burberry collections and products, as well as all advertising, corporate art direction, architectural design, multi-media content and overall brand image for Burberry.
