Celebrating its 150th anniversary, Liberty—an icon of design innovation and luxury—is renowned internationally for fabric designs on silk, wool, cashmere, and, most famously, Tana Lawn Cotton(TM).
In her new book "Liberty: Design. Pattern. Color.", cultural historian and color expert Kassia St Clair discusses 150 of the most striking and significant Liberty patterns, ranging from much-loved florals to bold and abstract designs and contemporary collaborations. She places fabrics in the context of the store's broader design history—from the retailer's remarkable Tudor-revival building to posters, advertising, and branding—and presents the latest examples of Liberty design alongside prints, drawings, and samples from the company’s outstanding archive, telling an inspiring, century-long story of manufacturing quality and design excellence.
