Can someone please help me date this Burberry trenchcoat?

[John M]

I have been given this beautiful Burberry trench coat by a friend and I might need some help from the experts here on dating it, I do want to know what year it was possibly made and what name/model is it. Attached are the photos of tags and labels I have seen in the jacket.

Thank you all in advance!

John

Hi there... judging by the label and style, I think this coat is fairly contemporary, not vintage. I'm thinking mid 2000s at the oldest.

Hi @bycinbyhand, the logo is Burberrys' did they stop using it back 1998?

This is the information from the VFG Label Resource on Burberrys':

John M. - you are correct that Burberry dropped the "s" around 1998.

Thank you so much @Linn for that information. Judging from the VFG Label Source, this trench coat is indeed from the 1980's as it the same as this label

Yes definitely no later than late 1990s.

it also lacks a drying symbol in the care labels (eg Do Not Tumble Dry), which can mean earlier 80s, but this isn't definitive.

Yes was going to suggest mid 80’s just due to the care labels and added s. Although it is a very classic style. The style on its own would be super difficult to date.

I still think it's more contemporary than modern... those care labels... tell me, where are they sewn on the garment?
