As modeled by Gigi Hadid

The appointment of Riccardo Tisci as Chief Creative Officer of Burberry caused an unprecedented revolution within the well-known English brand.

One of the first innovations introduced by the Italian designer concerned the monogram of the Maison, redesigned in a new version first presented in August 2018. The new monogram, created by Tisci himself along with Peter Saville, English art director and graphic designer, pays homage to Thomas Burberry, the man who founded the namesake fashion house back in 1892.

“When I first started at Burberry, I spent a lot of time in the archives researching the rich history of the house. I quickly became very interested in Thomas Burberry and who he was not only as an inventor and innovator, but also who he was as a man, a husband and a father. When I saw an image of his initials, the design felt so special and actually very modern, so I quickly developed it into a new code for the house. It’s a symbol that not only embraces Burberry’s heritage but also feels very contemporary.” – Riccardo Tisci

Now the TB interlocking, which sees the interweaving of the letters T and B in different tonal shades of Burberry beige and brown. The top model and superstar Gigi Hadid makes her campaign debut for Burberry showcasing the breadth of the collection by transforming into the four distinct characters celebrated by the fashion house.
