Olivia Burton is a British watch and jewelry brand founded in 2012 by two friends, Gemma Fawkes and Leslie Thomas. The two met while studying fashion management at the London College of Fashion and after years of working in the fashion industry (including for well-known brands such as ASOS), they decided to start their own brand, inspired by vintage aesthetics and the romantic side of nature.
The name Olivia Burton comes from the aunt of one of the founders – a woman of style and taste who left a lasting mark on their fashion sense. The brand is known for its vintage charm, feminine design and often uses motifs such as flowers, butterflies, bees and delicate natural elements, combined with modern sophistication.
The first collection was presented in September 2012 and immediately aroused interest with its characteristic large dials, beautiful illustrations and attention to detail. Olivia Burton is positioned in the mid-price range, offering a sense of luxury at an affordable price.
In 2017, due to its growing success and global reach, the brand was acquired by the American giant Movado Group, which also owns other famous brands such as Movado, Ebel and Concord. This allowed Olivia Burton to expand globally while maintaining its identity.
Olivia Burton is today a symbol of sophistication, romance and aesthetics, loved by women all over the world who are looking for more than just a watch, but a piece of jewelry that tells a story.
