By Dividend.com,  July 11, 2012, 09:07:02 AM EDT

Luxury retailers Coach, Inc. ( COH ) and Ralph Lauren Corp ( RL ) could be in focus for investors on Wednesday, following British luxury clothing maker Burberry's earnings miss.

Burberry posted weaker-than-expected fiscal first quarter earnings on Wednesday, sending its shares plunging nearly 8% in trading on the London Stock Exchange. Now speculation naturally turns to COH and RL, both of which produce luxury products in a similar class to Burberry.

Both Coach and Ralph Lauren shares were mostly flat in premarket trading Wednesday.
