WANT Les Essentiels x Liberty | Holiday Capsule Collection





WANT Les Essentiels Teams with Liberty Art Fabrics for Holiday Capsule Collection
WANT Les Essentiels is pleased to debut a unique holiday capsule collection featuring exclusive archival Liberty Art Fabrics. In keeping with WANT Les Essentiels’ timeless vision and aesthetic, the limited edition collection is designed for today and built for the future, tailored to the needs of an active and modern lifestyle. 
Inspired by minimalism, abstract expressionism and the representation of one’s self through form and color, three carefully-selected Liberty Art Fabric prints—Black Square, Black Sketch and Felix Paisley—are showcased across eight WANT Les Essentiels styles. The collaboration marks the first time WANT Les Essentiels have printed directly onto their Italian calf leather and 100% organic cotton. 
The collection’s motifs reflect the brand’s appreciation of past and present, artfully fused together to create products that transcend time and trends. The simple, elegant Black Square’s contrasting cube and polka dot pattern creates a satisfying optical illusion when applied to WANT Les Essentiels favorites: The Kastrup Backpack, O’Hare Shopper Tote, Orly Shopper Tote, Mini Piper Backpack, Changi Luggage Tag and Lennon Sneaker. Black Sketch, a freehand, sketch-like print, appears on select key styles conveying a contemporary take on these classics.
The colorful Felix Paisley, derived from an 1850s paisley shawl painting from the Liberty Archive, adds a touch of Liberty tradition to the collection while the exclusive monochromatic colorway makes it distinctly WANT, as it graces the Kastrup backpack, O’Hare Shopper Tote and Kenyatta Dopp Kit.
The WANT Les Essentiels x Liberty Art Fabrics capsule collection is now available at Liberty of London, WANT Les Essentiels and wantlesessentiels.com, Barneys New York (Men’s) and additional fine retailers worldwide. Prices for the collection range from $135 - $675.
