Liberty is celebrating our love affair with sensational shoes with a weekend of personal appearances from our favourite designers, special offers and exclusive competitions. Plus Liberty Loyalty Card holders will double their points all weekend!

Thursday 25th November

2nd Floor, 6-8pm
Nicholas Kirkwood will be in store to showcase his SS11 collection, allowing shoppers to get their hands on his highly covetable shoes an entire season early. Like wearable works of art, Kirkwood’s shoes are an accessory you won’t want to do without. He will also be signing sketches of his designs as you sip from complimentary Tanqueray drinks and browse your way through an abundance of fanciful footwear.

Friday 26th November

2nd Floor, from 3pm
Personal appearance from designer Raphael Young, famed for his attention to detail and traditional technique. Young hand makes each prototype in its entirety, including carving each carefully sculpted heel. He will be sketching and demonstrating his processes live in store.

2nd Floor, 6-8pm
We’ll be serving up delicious complimentary Tanqueray cocktails to the sounds of DJ Sloanie’s top tunes, plus join in a shoe master class from the Sloane Rangers: drag performance artist Johnny Woo, east London scene queen Jeanette and show girl Gwendoline Christie. Find out how to disco dance in wobbling wedges, walk a catwalk in six inch stilettos and hail a taxi in towering platforms.

Lower Ground Floor, 5-7pm
In the men’s department shoppers will have the opportunity to meet Mr Hare, an independent British company behind some of the finest quality, handcrafted Italian shoes currently gracing the men’s shoe hall. Enjoy a complimentary drink and shop the SS11 collection, available for pre-order all weekend.

Also on the lower ground Steven, one half of menswear blog Style Savage and Mr Hare will answer your questions and offer advice.

Saturday 27th November

Lower Ground Floor, From Midday
T&F Slack Shoemakers will be in the men’s shoe hall to host a live workshop during which they will demonstrate shoe lasting and production. 

2nd Floor, 2-4pm
Meet Rupert Sanderson in the women’s shoe hall, who’ll be signing shoes and giving away free sketches with purchases from his collection. Sanderson designs classic shoes, avoiding overly embellishment styles and focusing on flattering and seductive shapes.

At 2.30 and 3.30pm he will be live in conversation with Vogue Editor at Large, Fiona Golfar.

Sunday 28th November

2nd Floor
Preview the Beatrix Ong and Georgina Goodman SS11 collections, with our own Liberty Psychic in store to offer an insight into your shoe choices.
