Burberry to stop burning unsold goods, removes real fur from collections
British luxury brand Burberry said it would no longer burn millions of pounds worth of unsold goods or use real fur in its collections after an uproar over its environmental credentials.
The label, which is due to produce its first collection under new designer Riccardo Tisci, said it was committed to becoming more socially and environmentally responsible after it admitted burning £28.6m (€31.8m) worth of goods in its last financial year.
