An Intimate Affair
There's a subtly seductive mood to the new spring season. Perhaps in the spirit of romanticising the season of delayering - where extra sunshine means there's more to reveal when we're no longer swathed in tights, long sleeves and intricate layering solutions. Think flashes of filigree lace, insouciant silhouettes in slinky fabrics and flashes of sheer that both reveal and conceal… For a suitable sophisticated take on the trend, look to Simone Rocha for her alluring, yet still powerful, designs, and layer your flashes of filigree with chunkier hardwear, oversized shapes and sharp tailoring.
The Return of the Scarf
It won't be a surprise to know that, here at Liberty, we've long been advocates of the transformative outfit powers of a scarf. If you ask us, it's the ultimate finishing flourish for your outfit: a pop of colour, an added dash of sophistication and just a hint of playfulness thanks to our array of bold archival prints. For spring 2026, their powers are once more in the spotlight, and those in the sartorial know are adding them to every outfit. Whether you tie around your neck as an avant garde necklace alternative, wrap around your hair as an ever-so-elegant headband, or adorn your favourite bag with a silken flash: this is the ultimate multi-tasking accessory.

Outerwear Statements
It’s never too early to start fantasising about the new season’s array of statement jackets and coats. The suede bomber and sweeping faux fur coat remain the shapes to know for the season, and a classic oversized biker will never go out of style. For those seeking newness, there’s a distinctly pastoral feel emerging in waxed jackets and quilted styles in an array of checks and plaids. Look to Toteme, Rotate and Ganni for timeless styles to last you well into the warmer months. Find yours now, and when the time comes to retire your big coat: you’ll be thankful.
Perfect Plaid
A perennial classic, one could argue that plaid never really goes out of style: making it a perfect “trend” to add to your wardrobe for now and forever. The new take on the check plays with proportions: with maxi and micro plaids leading the pack, and looks to bold clashing colours to add a modern irreverence. For the day-to-day, pair a plaid knit with a relaxed pair of stonewash jeans, or for something more dramatic: look to Vivienne Westwood's expertise and go head to toe checks for trompe l’oeil impact.

Sweet Like Chocolate
It’s fair to say we’ve been seduced by the deep chocolate tones melting their way through the spring 2026 fashion offering. Just as sophisticated as black, but with a modicum more warmth and interest: making it the perfect way to spice up your spring outfits. From subtle accents to fully dipped looks, this season, the Liberty buyers fell for the smooth tones of Toteme, and playful silhouettes of Peachy Den. We’re quite sure you will too.
