Did Liberty Target right? / 花花走錯路真的會變悲劇之給我時尚不要阿桑

In this page, I'm going to talk about the collaborations of Liberty with cloth brands and retailers in other countries.
While I was doing the research, I found Liberty actually has joined forces with so many brands.
It works with various brands every year.
I was surprised that Liberty has worked with MAC, which is crazy about collaborations as well.
I don't talk about the colours of the cosmetics, the packaging is not really my thing..especailly the bird, but actually it was taken from Liberty's print "Strawberry Thief" (這隻鳥的表情實在太欠揍了,而且他那老派藝人的瀏海是怎麼回事?!)
This collection was quite successful because there were a lot of people talking about it, and it sold out very soon.

In March 2010, speaking to the collaboration with Target, it looked like a dramatic event in that time.
They had a press preview for its Liberty of London pop-up shop in New York.
The customers were really crazy about the collection since it had sold out in a short time, and they had to close the pop-up shop.
The products were affordable, because these were Liberty prints on non-Liberty fabric, which explains the low prices. (The retailer licensed the prints for a certain period of time instead of buying the actually fabric, which would probably cost a lot less.)
To be honest, I don't like the prints of the Target's collection. I'm a flower lovers but this kind of prints is not cup of my tea...= =" Maybe it's popular in 2010.
At the first time I saw the products on the internet, I didn't believe that were from Liberty...
和Target這個美國百貨公司的聯名商品其實讓我有點傻眼(這不是我認識的Liberty啊~翻滾中)
除了印花樣式俗俗、沒格調外,它們的Model好不ok喔...(因為太醜不想放上來) 
雖然它們的Campaign概念不錯,那台腳踏車換個印花 我會想買...XDD

In the same year, Liberty also joined forces with Merci, which was created in 2009. (it's like a boutique. 其實我不知道要怎麼定位這間店...)
I like this collection more, it looked more elegant and I want that suitcase so much!
Now, you probably can find out Liberty has done a lot of things trying to get into the overseas markets.
(迷之音:這張有比較高級一點了吧?)
Finally, the part of this topic is about cloth brands.
Perry Boys was quite early to work with Liberty in 2010...I believe that there will be a man suits these floral shirts...
If anyone like this collection please to me! I really really want to see how it works~

I doubt about J.Crew, I'm not sure did they really collaborate with each other, or just J.Crew uesd Liberty's fabric.
For the design, I think it could be improved a lot.
Since the whole body of the clothes was made by a single floral fabric that reminds me of Liberty's own products. It wasn't exactly special for J.Crew.
Besides, I can accept a complete-floral prints item with bright colours as a accessory, but not for the clothes.

However, I literally can image that I wear the collection from Acne Studios .(a Swedish fashion house)
The collection took classic Acne silhouettes and staples, such as tailored pants and leather jackets, and refreshed them with Liberty’s signature floral prints, pulled together with Acne’s unique styling.
They used the paisley print, Eva(a Japanese-inspired pattern) and Alma’s Bird and combined them to make a edgy look.
The famous blogger Susie Bubble has written a page and she made a look for it that looks quite nice!
其實我是喜歡把花花和點點搭在一起的瘋瘋人
但這個風格非人人都接受,而且不小心真的會釀成災...
蘇西泡泡的穿搭的確很厲害,但也不是每個我都接受~

Chinti and Parker is a British luxury ready-to-wear label, founded in 2009.
The collaboration sees a perfect pairing of Chinti and Parker's coveted silhouettes with Liberty's iconic Pereira print.
I actually love these cute shirts and floral dresses which are so perfect for Spring!
不過這牌真的太貴了!洋裝要180鎊...我還是買個碎花布 拿回加慢慢車好了...
