The Liberty department stores in London were founded in 1875 by Arthur Liberty , a far-sighted English entrepreneur, who had the brilliant idea of mass-producing traditionally handmade fabrics, without losing the high quality of the product. Nicknamed " the queen's cottons " , Liberty London fabrics are famous throughout the world for their brilliant colours, iconic floral designs and silk-like softness. Here you can also find liberty silk fabrics and liberty fabrics for furnishings.
