Alice Caroline Exclusive Liberty Tana Lawn D’Anjo R x 12 metres

Bespoke listing for Duckadilly.

D’Anjo is a typical 1930s floral design, created for Liberty by the Silver Studio. This London-based design house created some of Liberty’s most popular fabric designs from the Art Nouveau period to the 1940s.  It’s originally from the AW12 ‘Wightwick and Willow’ collection.  

We are delighted to announce the launch of our Summer Edit.  Alice says “The 2013 Flower Show is one of my favourite Liberty collections ever.  It has some of the greatest Liberty seasonal prints of all time.  It was a gorgeous collection of beauty and wonder and so I wanted to re-print some of the fabrics from this collection.  I’ve chosen some colours that are hard to come by – purples and greens are especially hard to find in Liberty collections.  Many of the fabrics chosen for my Summer Edit remind me of beautiful and vibrant English summer gardens.”

Alice Caroline Exclusive Liberty Tana Lawn Mini Edenham Lilac x 12metres

Bespoke order for Duckadilly.

Mini Edenham is a really lovely print at a cute mini scale.  We have used purples which are rare in the current Liberty selection and an absinthe greeny yellow.

The Alice Caroline 2020 Exclusive ‘Butterfly Garden Collection’ features a beautiful selection of Liberty prints re-worked in delicate colourways. Comprising 15 stunning Liberty Tana Lawn prints, the colour theme inspiration comes from a box of ribbons gifted to Alice long ago by a great, great aunt. The collection is reminiscent of a flower garden in full summer bloom as well as evoking the imagined explorations of attic treasures in 1920’s Paris.

Alice Caroline Exclusive Liberty Tana Lawn Wiltshire Plum Blossom X

Wiltshire is a classic leaf and berry print, originally designed for Liberty Fabrics in 1933. Like Betsy, it was created by the designer with the initials DS. It has been part of the classic Tana collection since 1979.  Alice Caroline love this design and wanted to re-colour it for this new collection in pretty pinks with hints of violet.  Japanese plum blossom symbolises vitality, hope and renewal and emerges in mid-February in Japan.  Wherever plum blossom appears you will be surrounded by both visual beauty and a gorgeous fragrance.

Inspired by the Japanese tradition of Hanami, this new Alice Caroline exclusive collection celebrates the transient beauty of flowers.  Hanami means ‘flower viewing’ in Japanese and is the tradition of enjoying the beauty of spring blossoms.  It’s synonymous with friends and families meeting together beneath the trees enjoying picnics surrounded by beautiful blossom – the perfect inspiration for Liberty Exclusive prints.

There are three gorgeous prints in this new capsule collection:
Betsy Apricot Blossom, Wiltshire Plum Blossom and Felicite Cherry Blossom

Alice says about the collection.  “I am delighted to be launching the new ‘Blossom Capsule Exclusive Collection’.  Japan is one of my favourite places and I love the blossom season there.  It’s the perfect inspiration for an Alice Caroline exclusive collection.  We love a picnic and party at Alice Caroline too so I’ve always loved the idea of picnicking beneath the Sakura – we must do this next year in the fields behind our studio next spring when the apple blossom appears.”

Wholesale Liberty Tana Lawn fabrics sold in lengths starting from 10 metres.

Alice Caroline Exclusive Liberty Tana Lawn Felicite Cherry Blossom X

A beautiful new colour way of Felicite with cherry blossom pinks and pale sage green leaves. Felicite is one of my favourite Liberty prints and is a rose trail that was designed for Liberty Fabrics in 1933 by the mysterious designer D.S.  Cherry blossoms in Japan are known as Sakura, where this flower is a little bit of a national obsession.  In ancient times the blooming cherry blossoms marked the beginning of the spring planting season.

Alice Caroline Exclusive Liberty Tana Lawn Betsy Apricot Blossom Y

One of the most loved Liberty prints has been recoloured by Alice Caroline in delicate soft peachy pinks and willow green tones for the leaves.  The delicate colours in this new Betsy are reminiscent of the apricot blossoms in Japan.  These blossoms are known for their ornamental beauty and are a symbol of resilience in the face of adversity thanks to the early flowering and promise of spring to come.

Alice Caroline Exclusive Liberty Tana Lawn Irma Meadow X

Alice Talks about Irma:
“I LOVE Irma – it comes from one of my all time favourite Liberty collections – ‘Flower Show’ from 2013 which had some wonderful and timeless Liberty designs. This is one of my favourite summer prints so we wanted to bring you a new colourway with different tones. When looking at colours, I realised that there wasn’t a soft pink Irma with a stronger pink for the poppy so we worked on that design to create a perfect new print. It’s such a beautiful design and has so many flowers that I love.
 
Irma is like a wildflower meadow – with poppies, cow parsley, astrantia (I’ve seen this grow wild in the French alps) and shepherds purse which is so sweet. I’m dreaming of wafty summer dresses and will definitely be making one for my summer holidays. Anna and I made our girls dresses in one of the Irma colourways a few years ago which was inspired by the Cinderella film from 2015 (young Cinderella ran through the wildflower fields of her childhood in this exact dress!)
 
Meticulously printed to retain exact brushstrokes and pencil marks, Irma combines euphorbia, poppies, astrantia and iberis to create a delicate ethereal meadow. Originally created as part of the SS13 ‘Flower Show’.  This print reminds us of childhood dresses – this was used in the Disney 2015 film Cinderella.

In this collection, the pink is reminiscent of the coral sand beaches and the flowers of the Hibiscus and Oleander. The blue is the colour of the clear blue skies and crystal clear waters. This capsule collection is reminiscent of the colours of paradise.”
