Olivia Burton exclusive rewards loyal Harvey Nics

Start up London watch brand Olivia Burton is introducing two new timepieces with an exclusive placement at Harvey Nichols.

The luxury department store was one of the first retailers to stock Olivia Burton when the brand launched its first collection in 2012.

Olivia Burton was created by Lesa Bennett and Jemma Fennings after struggling to find watches that inspired their love of fashion.

The pair, who first met at the London College of Fashion, were recognised for their achievements this year with a spot in the WatchPro Hot 100 under the Ones to Watch category sponsored by Bering.

The brand is sold by 70 stockists including Fenwick and Asos.

It was Harvey Nichols that gave Olivia Burton its big break, the co-founders told WatchPro. “It really helped us to reach our minimums with our suppliers and get the brand off the ground. Seeing the watches in the Knightsbridge store was one of our proudest moments,” said Fennings.
