British fashion house Burberry continues to develop as usual its commitment to the world of art and culture, and as proof of this is its latest action, the support for the renovation of the Fashion Gallery of the iconic Victoria and Albert Museum in South Kensington (London-UK).

The collaboration, which will bring together two icons of British culture with a shared heritage legacy, will see the gallery re-modelled, inspiring visitors and allowing them to experience the V&A’s fashion collection in innovative and exciting ways. The space is scheduled to open in Spring 2027 and from then on will be exclusively called “The Burberry Gallery”.

Joshua Schulman, CEO of Burberry, of the news commented: Burberry’s partnership with the V&A marks a milestone moment for British arts and culture. It unites two centuries-old cultural icons with a shared legacy of heritage and innovation and a commitment to championing creativity. We are so thrilled to come together with the V&A team to celebrate the rich history of fashion and to develop an immersive space that will inspire creative minds for generations to come.”

While Tristram Hunt, Director of the V&A, added: “Founded in the same decade, for over 150 years the V&A and Burberry have been pillars of British fashion. Global in our reach, whilst champions of UK art and design, we share a commitment to ensuring our proud heritage inspires the next generation of creatives. This partnership allows us to share the V&A’s incredible collections in new and accessible ways and, with Burberry, support education and craftsmanship across the country. The V&A is hugely honoured to display the Burberry name above one of the very greatest fashion galleries in the world.”

How will the Burberry gallery look? We’ll have to wait a while to find out.
