Norwegian artist Jens Werner thought it would be “fun” to paint his house, located in Larvik, in Burberry’s famed plaid pattern.
This image, from a Daily Mail report, shows the finished makeover. We wonder what Burberry think. We don’t think they will appreciate his art, which has been called “tacky”. In fact, they are suing a pets accessory chain for using their plaid pattern (see our report on 21 October: Burberry Is Being Dogged By Plaid Plagiarism)
On the other hand, Burberry may not care as they may be too busy with their expansion into India.
We read in a Times Online article that Burberry is poised to enter a new joint venture with Indian fashion retailer Genesis Colors. C.E.O. Angela Ahrendts said," Obviously, India is on a different curve [to China]. We only have about two stores there now, but I see the same growth potential.”
