From the Back Cover

Liberty, which has long been synonymous with design innovation and artistic curation, is renowned internationally for fabric designs on silk, wool, velvet, and, most famously, Tana Lawn(TM) cotton. Gathered here are more than 100 of the most striking and significant Liberty designs, ranging from much-loved florals to bold and abstract designs and contemporary collaborations.

Published to mark Liberty's 150th anniversary, this beautiful book presents the very latest examples of Liberty's textile designs alongside prints, drawings, and samples from the company's outstanding archive, telling an inspiring story of manufacturing quality and design excellence. It also places fabrics in the context of the store's wider design history, including that of the retailer's remarkable Tudor Revival building in London.
