ABOUT LIBERTY

When our pioneering founder Arthur Lasenby Liberty laid plans in 1875 for an emporium laden with luxuries and fabrics from distant lands, his dream was to metaphorically dock a ship in London’s streets. In 1875, that dream was realised.

The Liberty spirit may be one of reinvention and originality, yet 149 years later, a voyage of discovery still awaits on the good ship Liberty. Our iconic listed flagship building and dynamic ecommerce platform play host to over 600 of the world’s most extraordinary luxury brands – including the industry-leading fabrics, apparel, beauty and homeware collections borne from our very own (and incredibly talented) in-house design studio.

An entirely unique shopping proposition, Wilde’s observation still runs true to this day: Liberty is where artistic shoppers from over 190 countries come to seek out boundless inspiration, superior design and a chance to elevate almost every corner of their lives.
