British Heritage Brand Barbour stuns at this year’s Glastonbury Festival. Iconic faces were seen sporting the brand’s apparel. From figures sporting the brand’s amazing heritage jackets, Wellington boots and more, take a look at the stylish pieces worn at this year’s festival.
British Heritage Brand Barbour once again proves its place at the top of the Glastonbury style stakes, cementing its status as the go-to brand for festival-goers as famous faces were spotted flocking to the fields once again, with Barbour in full-force. Blending practicality with style, Barbour’s timeless designs continue to take centre stage in the most iconic wardrobes at Worthy Farm, with A-list celebrities spotted in Barbour’s heritage jackets, Wellington boots, and ready-to-wear.
At Worthy Farm, iconic figures attending Glastonbury Festival wore pieces by the British Heritage Brand Barbour. These figures include: Adwoa Aboah, Lily Allen, Joseph Quinn, Lily James, Billie Piper, Gemma Chan and Dominic Cooper, Saffron Hocking, Lennon Gallagher and more.
For model, actress and festival style icon Adwoa Aboah, she marked her return to Glastonbury for the first time since becoming a mum, sporting the Barbour Transporter Oversized Casual Jacket in Navy with a pair of ripped jeans.
Actor Joseph Quinn, who was recently announced to play George Harrison in Sam Mendes’ highly anticipated Beatles biopic, was seen effortlessly sporting the Barbour Transporter Oversized Casual Jacket.
Long-time pals and actors Lily James, Billie Piper, Gemma Chan and Dominic Cooper were also reunited at the festival wearing iconic looks. Lily James oozed elegance in the Emlyn QuiltedBomber Jacket, Elsden Shorts and Wilton Wellington boots, and Billie Piper – who recently made headlines surrounding her return to Doctor Who – looked fabulous in the Transporter Oversized Casual Jacket in Sage and Wilton Wellingtons.
Couple Gemma Chan and Dominic Cooper wore looks that subtly paid tribute to Barbour’s celebrated heritage. Respectively, they wore the Suri Checked Showerproof Jacket paired with the Cary Shirt and Cary Shorts co-ord set and Evie Ankle Boots, and the Westmorland Ripstop Overshirt and Ridge Wellingtons.
Music artist Lily Allen was seen in the Classic Bedale Wax Jacket and Bede Wellies, and fashion model Lennon Gallagher was sporting his father’s festival legacy in the Bedale Stripe Casual Jacket and Nimbus Wellingtons. His partner, Izzy Richmond, was sporting the stylish Utility Spey Wax Jacket and Bede Wellington Boots.
Finally, actor and festival mainstay Saffron Hocking was seen in the beautiful Hayley Showerproof Jacket and Bede Wellington Boots.
To add on to the exciting news regarding Barbour’s presence at Glastonbury Festival, they once again teamed up with global charity Oxfam and brought back their Re-Loved initiative, which offers festivalgoers the chance to rent and buy a selection of pre-loved Barbour jackets and accessories. All proceeds of this support the important work of Oxfam.
Every Barbour Re-loved jacket that is available for hire has been attentively cleaned and repaired by the heritage brand’s experienced team in South Shields, northeast of England. Many of the jackets include upcycled materials from previous Glastonbury festival wear including T-shirts and merchandise. Re-loved bucket hats were also available at a price of £29, alongside a new offering of limited edition pin badges featuring the brandings of Barbour, Oxfam and Glastonbury for £7. These one-of-a-kind collector’s items are available only with the purchase of jackets, hats and welly toppers.
“We’re excited to return to Glastonbury in partnership with Oxfam and to continue our commitment to giving customers the opportunity to extend the life of their jackets through our Wax for Life program. This initiative celebrates circularity and re-loved products by offering festivalgoers the chance to experience the durability and timelessness of Barbour items. By expanding our on-site offering this year with more jackets and, for the first time, pin badges and welly toppers alongside the bucket hats from last year, we’re making it easier than ever for visitors to wear Barbour, whatever the weather.” – Paul Wilkinson, Group Deputy Managing Director at Barbour.
