Althea Trinidad (C)
Liberty Fabrics Tana Lawn®.
Althea McNish Collection, 2023. Approximately 53" wide. 100% cotton, Tana Lawn®.
Inspired by Monet, Althea Trinidad transposes the humble English daisy into a landscape of tropical splendour. Alive with impressionistic styling, the print was originally created for Liberty in 1958 and printed at Liberty’s Merton Printworks.
This collection celebrates the designs of Althea McNish, showcasing the Trinidadian designer’s unique eye for graphic, multi-layered prints in vividly tropical-infused shades. Hailing from Port of Spain in Trinidad and Tobago, she moved to England in the 1950’s and subsequently revolutionised the world of post-war British textile design with her bold and beautiful prints – starting with her very first collection, created as a freelance commission for Liberty Fabrics in 1958. Recreated from Althea’s designs in the Liberty Archive the collection exhibits her vibrant florals and textural patterns in exciting new colourways.
How should I care for my Tana Lawn?
Liberty Tana Lawn® does not need to be pre-washed before working with it. Because of the high-quality production of the fabric, shrinkage when washing is negligible.
Washing Care
We recommend washing Tana Lawn® on cool with delicate detergent. Hang drying is preferable; if using the dryer, we recommend a low temperature.
