Belle Barbour

Have you gotten your Burberry coat yet this year?
That was so last year—this season is all about the new British export, Barbour.

But I want to look like Liz Hurley, not Camilla Parker Bowles!
That horse-and-hound look is chic now, and to prove it, a new Barbour store—the first in the U.S.—just opened, on Madison and 80th (212-570-2600).

But it’s mostly men’s, right?
Not at all. Check out the lace-up jodhpurs and twee plaid bags. You can even get a waxy rain jacket in black—so New York they’re not even available in England. But don’t tell your Brit friends. They’ll demand to borrow it, and you’ll never see it again.
