Anglophiles, grab your wallets and get ready for a serious home makeover: Anthropologie is launching a collaboration with beloved British brand Liberty. The 40-piece collection brings the company's cheery, floral prints into the home on silhouettes imagined by Anthropologie, and marks the first time Liberty's prints will be available on upholstered furniture stateside. <\/p>\n
Anthropologie's home team looked to Liberty's vast archives, selecting 18 heritage prints that were then swathed on furnishings and decor in Anthropologie's signature modern romantic style. The result is a cheerful look that blends the best of both brands and encourages mixing and matching. <\/p>\n

\"Like anyone who is passionate about design, I have always revered Liberty as the very epitome of classic British style, and have been continually amazed by its constant reinventions, which have seen the brand remain fresh and relevant for well over a century,\" says Andrew Carnie, Anthropologies president of home, garden, and Europe. \"Given our shared passion for pushing creative boundaries, I believe that Anthropologie and Liberty are a natural fit.\" <\/p>\n

The prints hearken back to various points in history, but it's a testament indeed to Liberty's enduring style that they're just as delicious today. The Mabelle print, inspired by 17th-century Indian chintz, looks graphic on a porcelain table setting, the 1971 Feather Bloom print gets an added jolt of texture on a velvet bed quilt, and the swooping Pied Terre sofa looks hypnotic in Liberty's Strawberry Thief. <\/p>\n
The line's wide range means it shouldn't be reserved for only those with a granny-floral design style: Toss one of the deeply hued floral pillows onto a plain sofa to add texture or bring out the china set for special occasions. Of course, if you're game, there's no better source than Liberty to fuel a good botanical bonanza. Mixing patterns never looked this chic. <\/p>\n
