Celebrate Being British This Year with a Truly British Brand
LONDON, May 29, 2012 /PRNewswire/ –
It’s hard to avoid the fact that this summer the British public are set to experience
two of the most patriotic events (other than a Royal Wedding of course), that a nation can
ever expect to encounter in such a close proximity.
And with the Royal Wedding still so fresh in many minds, when better for these
prestigious events to occur. The events in reference are of course the Queen’s Diamond
Jubilee (2nd-5th June) and the summer games.
The Queen’s Diamond Jubilee marks the 60th year of Queen Elizabeth’s reign over
Britain, a reign equalled only by Queen Victoria in 1897. To commemorate this momentous
landmark in her life the Queen has gifted the nation a bank holiday, during which
festivities are expected to be a plenty. The Epsom Derby is set to draw the crowds on
Saturday 2nd June, then Sunday is the Thames Diamond Jubilee Pageant, during which up to
one thousand boats will make up the largest armada ever to have sailed the Thames. Lead by
The Queen, the journey starts upstream of Battersea Bridge, and meanders down towards
Tower Bridge, completing 4 hours of ceremonial sailing.
Just less than two months after the Queen’s Diamond Jubilee marks the beginning of the
summer games. Yet another excuse for the British public to come together, don the red,
white and blue face-paints, and fly the Union Jack as they cheer on their athletes.
All over London, retailers have started to stock flags, bunting, picnic sets, and
anything else that can be used to help celebrate these historical events. There is a clear
sense of excitement brewing within the country and the people of Great Britain are set to
come together this summer, and celebrate these momentous occasions as one.
Crew Clothing is one retailer that is embracing this patriotic notion and has
organised a sale with a very British focus. Having originated in Salcombe, Devon, Crew
Clothing has a rich heritage in British fashion, and how better to represent this history
than celebrating with the people of Britain. On top of introducing a ‘Fly The Flag’ range

design, with products such as a ‘Union Jack Umbrella’ and a ‘Union Jack Charm Bracelet’,
