The Burberry logo that's taken over the space previously inhabited by the New York Magazine marquee atop 444 Madison Avenue will light up next Thursday, reports Hint Magazine. That's the date the British luxury house has picked to celebrate its new US acquisition. "Naturally the christening will be followed by party, which Christopher Bailey and CEO Angela Ahrendts will fly in for..." It'll all be very major, or whatever British slang is for a big deal.
