Kick-start your Spring wardrobe with one of our super striking Liberty scarves. Their dense and vivid prints will give any outfit a vibrant injection of colour. Illustrating the tangled vegetation of the jungle, the Exotic Flowers scarf features hummingbirds and butterflies as well as bouquet of extraordinary blooms.

For the Spring collection our in house design team were inspired by the Explorers of the new age, who discovered new lands and the mysterious underwater life, as well as extraordinary flora and fauna.

Victorian decoupage has inspired modern day photo montage scenes, complimented by hand-painted abstract map contours and far away landscapes. In contrast to these a palette of softer, on-trend sorbet pastels combined with rust reds and burnt orange, with highlights of yellow give added intensity to the colourways.

No outfit is complete without a perfect pout; and you can’t go wrong with a classic rouge or party pink. For a sheer wash of colour try the Hourglass Lip Stain which promises flawless looking lips for hours. For a fiery, highly pigmented red look no further than Nars Heatwave Lipstick, or for vibrant pink try Shu Uemura Pink 052 from the rouge unlimited range.  For extra hydration use Ellis Faas Creamy Lips L103, or layer your colour with the Rodin Blush lip balm, which also has a gorgeous floral scent.

Happy Chinese New Year

This is the year of the water dragon, and to celebrate we’re offering you the chance to win 3 metres of our Eastern inspired Dragonista fabric. The print is from our new Spring Summer fabrics collection, an archival design chosen by the antiques guru Martin Miller. Martin added a twist to the original by incorporating antiques of his own into the Liberty design, which was originally a ‘Chinoiserie’ style print for a Liberty scarf dating back to the early 1990s.

“In effect, it’s like taking a static work of art into a form that gives it movement and vitality. The iconic brand of Liberty is renowned for blending the classic with the modern which both complements and appeals to my style, and I am excited to be part of this wearable, living collection.” Martin Miller.

To win simply answer the following question:

Our founder Arthur Liberty was born on the 13th August 1843, an inspiring Leo, but which Chinese Zodiac animal would he have been?

New Season Liberty Art Fabrics: Archives, Antiques and Costume

Our new season Liberty Art Fabrics have arrived! Our fine Tana Lawn cotton has once again been transformed with a range of sensational prints, from statement brights produced in collaboration with textile designer Zandra Rhodes to classic archive florals reprinted and reinvented to our second digital capsule collection of rich high definition prints.

The collection was inspired by archives, antiques and costume; with wide ranging influences from a trip to Glencot House in Somerset, paintings at the National Gallery and the antiques collection of Martin Miller.

This year’s collaboration with textile students from Central Saint Martins was based around iconic films including Shanghai Express and A Clockwork Orange. We’re particularly fond of Powell, a lace design with cats emerging from within the pattern. It was inspired Sylvia in La Dolce Vita who wore a provocative lacy top and behaved in a feline manner.

Also be sure to look out for our Olympic motifs which run through some of the prints – from five Olympic rings in Meg’s Garden to a torch emblem in Eternal Flame.

What’s In Store: Fresh Spring Windows

Our new season windows have arrived! An inspirational display of fresh spring pastels and to-die-for accessories, set against giant cardboard objects. Our white schlappi mannequins are sporting chunky black Dr Martens boots which have started sprouting posies! One poor model has been strapped to a rocket, while another looks to be crushed under a hot iron. We think they may just be saved by their gorgeous garb though – think candy sweet hues from the likes of Dries Van Noten, Theory, Acne and Marni. The DMs are also a little hint: look out for our own Liberty Print boots coming soon!
