For Black artist and textile designer, Althea McNish, objects of everyday life acted as inspiration for her art. The humble Spanish onions, or ‘cebollas’, are exuberantly treated in a graphic, painterly style in Cebollas Garden Rendered in a dynamic colour palette that make them appear as though they’re dancing in a lively way on the fabric, the original Cebollas design was printed as a Liberty furnishing fabric for the seasonal 1960-1961 ranges. #LibertyFabrics #AltheaMcNish #LibertyCraftClub

Althea McNish’s father would often bring home flowers for her mother, only for them to be whisked away by McNish for her next design idea. In Grenada Blooms, daisies, dahlias, and chrysanthemums are sketched out in pastels. Rendered in a full dynamism of high intensity before being abstracted, rescaled, and layered. Originally created for Liberty in 1965, and later revived during the 1980s, this fabric design comes alive through McNish’s vivid colour palette. #LibertyFabrics #AltheaMcNish #LibertyCraftClub

Althea McNish’s inspiration for floral designs often came from the Chelsea Flower Show of which she was a frequent visitor. In this design, McNish showcases the majestic chaconia flower - the national flower of Trinidad, her home country. Using her trademark process to create multiple layers of bright colour, building up the leaves and petals of the flower, Chelsea Chaconia depicts an intricate, overlapping layout. The original design was created for Liberty in 1958 and included in the seasonal 1960-1961 furnishing fabric ranges. #LibertyFabrics #AltheaMcNish #LibertyCraftClub

Althea McNish, a Black artist and textile designer known for her unique eye for graphic, multi-layered prints in vividly tropical-infused shades, was often inspired by her time at home in Trinidad and Tobago. First created for Liberty in 1958 and printed at the historic Merton Printworks, Hibiscus from the Althea McNish collection was initially a large-scale furnishing design with pops of colour and bold stripes. Translated for contemporary styles, this print has been thoughtfully translated by the Liberty design studio for fashion fabrics. #LibertyFabrics #AltheaMcNish #LibertyCraftClub

When Liberty revisited their archive for inspiration in 1953 to reflect the ongoing socio-cultural shifts, the design house saw a return to their artistic roots. A rise in vintage boutiques gave Liberty prints a new social significance where individual freedom of expression was paramount. In the 1960s iconic designs including Ianthe, Clementina, and Makates, were enlivened by the spirit of psychedelia and rock music and for a brief period, flamboyant menswear flourished, initiating the Peacock Revolution of the new dandy male.
