Epaulet got together with Liberty of London to create a impressive selection of shirts. Based on Epaulet’s classic slim fit, we’d say these have a more tailored feel than Liberty’s own famous shirt line. The 100% cotton fabric is yarn dyed and woven in Japan. This particular model will appeal to the trend fans out there with its paisley print, one from the archives, ‘The Bourton’ is just the right side of interesting.
Liberty of London continues their aggressive collaborative campaign – the latest in the form of selvedge denim with the Edwin line. “hese classic Edwin ED-55 denim’s are made from our exclusive 140z Japanese Red Selvage, with the subtle addition of the classic Liberty print used in the detailing of some of the internal components of the denim. This is a truly beautiful pair of jeans, limited to just 100 pieces.”
Liberty print pops up again in this collab with Levi’s by Takahiro Kuraishi. If the early part of this season is anything to go by, it’s gonna be a pattern filled summer. This one’s a round collared, pullover number. The pockets are a little oddly placed, but it’s not a dealbreaker. This is a Japan only affair, so don’t forget your proxy. (E-Levis)
NYT’s T Mag gives us their take on the Liberty of London men’s collection for Autumn 2011 – from Pitti Uomo. “Given the house’s signature prints, I expected a riot of color and pattern. Instead, the Liberty of London designer Marco Sartoretti took a more measured approach, choosing just four prints in a subdued, cool palette and peppering them throughout the collection, which appeared to be inspired by Eastern motifs and Western tailoring. Checkerboard patterns quietly climbed up lapels and covered shirts and cropped slim trousers while a flashier “Marble” printed parka in icy blue stole the show.”
Just in time for the holidays comes this new collection of cases for Apple products from one of England’s best known shops. “The Liberty London for Apple collection offers the perfect combination of form and function. Each product in the range has been designed with ease of functionality at the forefront of its conception.” The collection covers all Apple products from iPad/iPhone/iPod and Macbooks as well as messenger bags. Above, we preview the Ianthe Macbook case but you’ll find some canvas Gekko and Wicker prints in our gallery. They are available December 1st.

Launching this April from Liberty is their “Blank Canvas Collection with Fred Perry. The range includes four classic Fred Perry products styled with two “timeless” prints of Liberty – the “Mark” and “Edenham.” “Items include four re-worked classic M12 polos, two in Black with Ecru tipping and two in white with Larkspur and Berry Red tipping. The polos have then either been printed all over in each print or have a more subtle Liberty touch with the Edenham or Mark print on the inner collar and placket. A short sleeved shirt fully printed in both Liberty designs and the Classic Fred Perry Black Harrington Jacket with Mark lining complete the Blank Canvas collection.”

Before anyone says anything smart – we know that the last thing you’re looking for now is knitwear, but bear with us. This jumper is great for a few reasons and unique for one. The reasons for greatness are it’s fit (slim), the trim (contrasting) and the price (£91, down from £130). The uniqueness comes from the embroidered daisy pattern which you can see on the right hand side. ‘Understated’ and ‘floral embroidered jumper’ aren’t two things you usually hear in the same sentence but they’re the words we’d use to describe this top. Get it from Liberty.
Liberty of London have been putting their liberty prints on everything from Steven Alan ties to Nike trainers and in their blog, they explain the reasoning behind their new liberty prints. In the post, they also explain how some of the prints came about, in addition to showing a genuine fabric board from 1960 (pictured above).
