Liberty






Since 1875, Liberty has been synonymous with luxury and great design. Arthur Liberty’s intuitive vision and pioneering spirit led him to travel the world looking for individual pieces to inspire and excite his discerning clientele. Liberty is not just a name above the door, it’s Arthur Liberty’s legacy, which stands for integrity, value, quality and above all beautifully designed product. This vision and spirit continues today within the iconic Tudor building.






Oscar Wilde
“Liberty is the chosen
resort of the artistic
shopper.”



Kalda

I'm proud to say that there are Icelandic designers, Katrín Alda and Rebekka Rafnsdottir  selling their collections in Liberty



New Icelandic label Kalda has become known for its effortless and distinctive wardrobe stables with great attention to detail. Think floaty silk separates with leather accents and dark, texture inspired prints for a toughened feminine silhouette.







 Kalda’s autumn/ winter 12 collection utilizes natural surface photographic prints on silk dresses and shirts to create an understated yet eccentric aesthetic with a laid back come-hither look. 
Available exclusively at Liberty.




When new and exclusive brand Kalda hit the Liberty shelves I wanted to find out more about this chic and sophisticated collection. Sisters Katrín Alda and Rebekka Rafnsdottir favour minimalistic design, paring down whilst at the same time retaining a distinctive and contemporary edge. 


They opened a shop Einvera in Reykjavík and started to make their own clothes to sell there. It went really well so they decided to make an independent brand of their creations. They took it slowly in the beginning and just made few pieces of each garment to find the road they wanted to take. In may 2011 they begin to sell their Brands in Liberty.
