The Best of British Design Open Call gives anyone and everyone the chance to pitch designs to the Liberty buying team, who will be choosing their favourite wares to be sold in store. This exciting event has been a great success, becoming something of a regular occurrence. Past discoveries include fashion brands Genuine Article, Draw in Light and Geannine Polazzon.
Geannine used to work at Liberty herself as a sales assistant, but now has her own collection stocked on the second floor,
”I used to work in the Lingerie department. I started making these dresses because I ran out of black clothes to wear as uniform. Every time I was wearing one someone would approach me – other girls from the shop or customers, and they all wanted one too. I made a small collection of these black dresses, based around cut and silhouette, and took them to the Best of British Design Open Call.”
Vanessa Dade of Genuine Article successfully pitched her reclaimed vintage leather jackets,
“It was a very intense and surreal experience. It was hugely gratifying to have my creative vision endorsed by Liberty’s buying team.”
Harriet and Polly, the designers behind London brand Draw in Light, told us about applying for Best of British during a visit to their studio. You can watch the film our YouTube page.
