COLLECTION

In celebration of 150 years of Liberty, ‘From the Studio’ for AW25 stands as a testament to the enduring legacy of the London design house. Paying homage to the dedicated artisanship that Liberty has been renowned for since the opening of its Regent Street flagship in 1875, this collection explores the creatives who have shaped the story so far. Divided into three distinct narratives – Craftsmanship, Collaboration, and Collectibles – ‘From the Studio’ unveils design sketches and archival studies, shedding light on Liberty ’s innovative artistic practice. This collection reveals the journey from inspiration through drawing, painting, and experimenting with digital artwork to the final printed textile.

Created using the artwork of Botanical Knot, this radiant rose print celebrates Liberty’s needlework department of the 1900s, which sold many designs in the style of May Morris, one of the most prominent designers and embroiderers at the time. Drawing from her characteristic Arts & Crafts style, Embroidered Botanical was hand-painted in gouache and layered with pencil marks to replicate the intricate stitches found in May’s embroideries. This print is part of the anniversary collection’s final chapter, Collectibles. Offering a design for each decade, this timeline of hero prints encapsulates 150 years – exploring the design house’s varied and influential handwriting while honouring key moments of creativity and discovery.

Crepe de chine is one of the best silk bases for daytime wear – it’s effortlessly luxe, with a lightweight drape that’s made more durable by its matte, slightly rough surface. Try using crepe de chine to create a louche effect with wide-leg trousers and loosely tailored shirts, or with fluted sleeves and ruffled accents for a romantic feel.
