Stars and their Barbours
Thursday, 9 August 2007
The most popular American poet of the Nineteenth Century, Henry Wadsworth Longfellow, once said, "The best thing one can do when it is raining is to let it rain," but today's celebrities would say it's probably best to put a Barbour on...
Barbour's iconic wax jackets are specially designed to withstand even the grimmest of weather conditions.
With the recent Glastonbury festival a complete mud-bath, and the weather-forecasters not offering much hope of improvement, the iconic British label is having plenty of opportunity this summer to prove just why it's earned those three royal warrants.
For Glastonbury, festival stalwarts Kate Moss, Sienna Miller, and Sadie Frost all made sure to pack their Barbours.
Jo Whiley and Peaches Geldof rocked the brand new women's waxed International, whilst Klaxons and Lily Allen kept it classic in the traditional Border.
For this weekend's T in the Park, Rufus and Martha Wainwright have got their Barbours ready, as have Alexa Chung and Lauren Laverne.
And The Feeling, Editors, Kasabian, Amy Winehouse and Arctic Monkeys will all be keeping warm in their Barbours backstage.
With this summer's festival calendar more packed than ever before, Barbour is set to be the definitive garment of 2007.
