Oceanus A Tana Lawn® Cotton

Inspired by an archival Liberty paper impression from 1972, this design conjures up the image of stormy waves crashing against Aphrodite’s Rock – the legendary birthplace of the goddess of love. From the pattern’s undulating paint marks to its detailing of foam-crested waves (from which Aphrodite is said to have risen), this easy-to-wear design has a dynamic and textural character, with great movement and depth. Oceanus is part of the Oceans story of the Autumn/Winter 2023 collection – featuring designs that draw us deep down into a glittering underwater kingdom of wine-dark waters inhabited by powerful mythological beings.

For Autumn/Winter 2023, A Liberty Odyssey takes us on an adventure inspired by early storytelling – a dazzling contemporary voyage through the world of ancient myths. For this collection, the Liberty Fabrics designers drew upon the potent iconography and enduring cultural significance of millennia-old narratives of gods and goddesses, with four stories of ‘Classical’, ‘Universe’, ‘Earth’, and ‘Oceans’. A sweeping tour across sea, land, and heavens, shot through with captivating mythic imagery and symbolism to ignite the imagination.
