First it was London, with the Underground station of the city’s iconic Bond Street rebranded as Burberry Street, then it was South Korea that saw the British fashion house take over the streets of its vibrant capital Seoul. Now the Burberry Streets initiative, as it is called, has journeyed to Shanghai.
With this iteration, named Burberry Rose, fashion lovers of Shanghai can look forward to a series of immersive experiences, eye-catching installations, and stylish events across the streets of the Chinese city.
This includes an installation called Petal Maze, in which visitors are invited to walk through the handcrafted, sculpted project that drew inspiration from the English rose, a staple of new creative director Daniel Lee’s first collection, and other English flora, each element a showcase of the brand’s Winter 2023 collection.

Guests to the Burberry takeover in Shanghai will also be welcome to experience a taste of true British culture that is so embedded in the fiber of the brand.
The brand’s collaboration with iconic British café Norman’s Café, located in North London, was a staple of Burberry Streets in London, and the two have united again to bring the café to the streets of Shanghai.
