'Ohara Tulip' - Spring Summer 2024
"Colour! What a deep and mysterious language, the language of dreams.” – Paul Gaugin
Cloth Edit is excited to bring to you the first instalment of the Spring/Summer 2024 Liberty Collection. This collection is described as a “Kaleidoscope”, taking you on a the most vivid journey through a rainbow, and into a “prismatic universe of colour”.
'Ohara Tulip' was inspired by Ohara Koson, "a well-known Japanese woodblock artist who created traditional nature-inspired prints in the early 20th century. Its style mimics the woodblock prints of that era, with a simple composition and ombré background. The rainbow parrot tulip motif is painted in gouache, rendered in delicate washes and fine lines. This print is part of the Spectrum story of our Spring/Summer 2024 collection - influenced by eclectic modern art movements, from the bold complementary hues of Fauvism to the synesthete musicality of the Orphists, with designs paying tribute to a vibrant array of colourful phenomena and pigment conception".
About the Spring/Summer 2024 Collection
“For this collection the Liberty Fabrics designers engaged with print’s most elemental pigments, assembled here into four compelling stories: ‘Spectrum’, ‘Red’, ‘Blue’ and ‘Yellow’. The collection explores the cultural, natural and historical components that make up the light and shade of everything around us, taking us into the heart of each hue. Join us to become immersed in kaleidoscopic colour, unlike anything we’ve done before.” (Liberty)
