In an ongoing bid to recognise and support new and emerging British design talent, Liberty of London is calling for all budding designers and creative talents to present their ideas to a panel of industry experts on Saturday February 6th. Creatives need to visit Liberty’s website to download a registration form. The best designs will get the chance to have their products sold at Liberty, a name synonymous with the very best of new design since its doors first opened in 1875, and now one of London’s best-loved emporiums of style and design. From fashion to furniture, hats to handbags, craft to cushions and from ceramics to silverware Liberty is encouraging anyone with a creative passion to bring in their designs for the panel to assess. The panel of experts includes the Liberty buying team, now headed up by ex-Bergdorf Goodman Senior VP Ed Burstell, and industry experts including top names from press and fashion retail. New designers needn’t expect a Dragon’s Den – rather the chance to get sympathetic and helpful advice from experts on how to nurture and develop their ideas.
