关于我们

When our adventurous founder Arthur Lasenby Liberty laid plans for a London emporium laden with luxuries and fabrics from distant lands, his dream was to metaphorically dock a ship in the city streets. To this day, a voyage of discovery awaits on the good ship Liberty, with history hidden amongst six floors of cutting-edge design, unexpected edits and beautiful wares from the world's greatest craftspeople. Liberty's collection of ornaments, fabric and objets d'art from around the world proved irresistible to a society intoxicated at the time by Japan and the East and Liberty effected social change in interior design and dress, so much so that the Art Nouveau period in Italy is called 'Liberty Style'. A realisation of Arthur's original vision, our magnificent Great Marlborough Street shop followed in 1924. Our beautiful building was designed by Edwin T. Hall and his son Edwin S. Hall. In 1922, the builders Messrs Higgs & Hill were given a lump sum of £198,000 to construct it, which they did from the timbers of two ancient 'three-decker' battle ships. Records show more than 24,000 cubic feet of ships timbers were used including their decks now being the shop flooring: The HMS Impregnable - built from 3040 100-year-old oaks from the New Forest - and the HMS Hindustan, which measured the length and height of our Liberty building. The 1920s was a time of Tudor revival, considered the most crafted and English of architecture, so the shop was engineered around three atriums. Designed to feel like a home, each atrium was surrounded by smaller rooms, complete with fireplaces and furnishings. The building is now a heritage listed London icon and today, Liberty is famed for its directional design, cultural collaborations and inspiring curation. Our dedicated in-house design studio is still at the core of all that we do, hand painting and creating our beautiful prints, and reworking finds from the 45,000-strong archive.

    Under the themes of ‘Reclaiming Narratives’ & ‘Celebrating our changemakers’, Liberty celebrated Black Artistry & delved into our archives during this year's Black History Month. We commenced the month in conversation with both established & emerging Black artists Feyi Badejo, Sharon Walters, Xavier Leopold & Péjú Oshin. This panel provided meaningful conversations & insightful explorations of themes essential to the Black artist experience, honouring the rich contributions of Black artists who have & continue to shape our world through their remarkable creativity & vision. Artwork from each artist has been displayed in our Flagship store for the month of October. Many of our customers & colleagues will have also enjoyed listening to the Gospel Rising Choir as the store doors opened earlier this month ?? Shining a spotlight on Althea McNish, iconic textile designer whose painterly botanical prints continue to inspire, revolutionised the world of postwar British design with her bold & beautiful prints – starting with her very first collection, created as a freelance commission for Liberty Fabrics in 1958. An exclusive exhibition on Liberty's Fourth Floor showcased a selection of Althea McNish's work, as well as more information on her life. #LifeAtLiberty #MoreThanAStore?

    Christmas always starts early at Liberty, and the arrival of our iconic Beauty Advent Calendar marks the true beginning of the festive season. We caught up with Beauty Buyer Laura Freitas, to hear about the magic behind this special Christmas gift. We are celebrating our 10th Beauty Advent calendar this year! How many advent calendars have you supported with & what changed over the years? 'I have worked on our Advent calendar in numerous roles since we first launched back in 2014 & have led this for the last couple. So much has changed over the years; particularly the competition, as we were the first to create a multi-branded beauty advent'. How do you select the brands and products featured in the calendar? 'Each year we take on board customer feedback, strive to feature best sellers, support new & upcoming brands together, whilst also including new and exclusive products'. What is your personal favourite product this year? 'That would be the La Mer Lip Volumizer'. What is the most rewarding part of working on our iconic Beauty Advent Calendar? 'From concept to delivering the project, there are so many memorable moments - the first sight of the physical final sample, launch day & all the hype, and reading the lovely customer messages that we receive, which contain some truly heart-warming stories'. Thank you to our teams, whose year-round dedication is what makes Christmas at Liberty truly magical ???? #LifeAtLiberty #MoreThanAStore?#ChristmasAtLiberty https://lnkd.in/ejdyw_iu
