The National Archives Designer Collection Talks

From instantly recognisable Liberty florals to optical patterns at Mary Katrantzou’s latest catwalk presentation, print has long been a mainstay of London design – be it classic or experimental. To celebrate London Collections: Menswear, the British Fashion Council have gathered a panel of experts – Ann Chow from the National Archives, Christopher New, senior lecturer at St Martins, and brand consultant Isabel Saiz – who will discuss the continuing importance of print within British design, and how historical prints are still relevant to contemporary designers.
