What's up with burberry check and chavs combined? I thought burberry was the kind of brand only old upper class granny's would wear..!? Here in holland chavs with opel corsa's (vauxhall) don't wear this type of clothing

Yeah, Burberry was like that over here too, mostly middle class, and now it's just the grannies who don't realise and chavs who wear it!
Been a big re branding thing, with Kate Moss I think, trying to get it back to being wanted, seemingly they don't make enough buy selling chavs handbags and baseball caps

Well the chavs thought it made them look posh, and started buying it following a couple of chav celebs.
I though the company stopped making it as it was badly harming their reputation.

Good point there
I mean a Chav role model 'celebrity' thought it made them look posh, and the rest followed like sheep through a hole in a hedge
