＜Jane Marple＞

The collection for the new season begins with « ReLondon », a print from our archive adjusted to commemorate the brand’s 40th anniversary.
Lively hand drawing makes our traditional image where the various motifs symbolizing London are accompanied by tricolor ribbons.
As this year marks our anniversary, we aspire to transmit our caring heart to the future, layering our hearts onto the minds and spirits we have nurtured by combining the fabric that represents the brand’s core philosophy with the elements of the current era…

« Regimental band » is a series reminiscent of the dormitory style, which is our regular design of this season, derived from « ReLondon ».
This lovely series comprises images of toy military bands uniquely depicted using cross-stitch embroidery on organic cotton poplin, which has a dry feel similar to that of washed-out fabrics.
This style, formed in line with the idea of elegance and humor that the brand has cherished, encourages you to walk around proudly and joyfully, humming in a clear tune…

« Shirring gingham » is a textile composed of the crossing thin cotton thread and polyurethane thread that shrinks.
The material carrying a light and cool feel suited for this season, is transformed into expressive items decorated with frills, ribbons, and gathers. Enjoy the vacation style to the fullest…

Our new approach to creating an image based on fairy tales takes shape as « A midsummer dream ». A frame made of scenes from fairy tales including Grimm, Bürger, and Mother Goose surrounds the shooting stars, the moon, the sun, and witches riding brooms playing around in the sky.
A midsummer dream of one’s childhood printed on cotton cupro lawn that shines beautifully and elegantly opens the door to the colorful world of fantasia...

We have chosen « A Celebration » as this brand’s Liberty fabric for this season.
In the pattern, characters such as dancing elephants, pelicans, monkeys, and lions drawn based on the wooden sculptures scattered around the Liberty store are celebrating the 150th anniversary of Liberty, surrounded by fascinatingly big tents and strange plants.
Coordinating with another fabric called « Pepper », small flowers printed on plain ground, we present a fun and charming hybrid style for celebration…

One’s never-ceasing adoration for Paris is reflected in the image containing scarves, handkerchiefs, stamps, posters, street name signs, etc. of « Les merveilles de Paris », the gem of this season’s collection.
It is a beautiful textile in a smoky Tricolore palette, in which the shapes and colors based on rectangular forms are arranged to make an elaborate composition.
Various items filled with design elements our brand has uniquely pursued embellish the 40th year, each paying homage to Paris in a thoughtful and gracious manner...

« Tulip lace » takes an artistic approach to make three-dimensional embroidery tulips with coarse cotton yarn on off-white, saxe blue, and black cotton voiles.
The skirt and the dresses present themselves in a peaceful style made by the soft and puffy contour.
Making the dramatic finale for the season…

＜Jane Marple Dans Le Salon＞

This brand starts the collection with Liberty Fabric’s « Carnaby Cast » by Robert Stewart, a Scottish designer from the 50s.
Artistic textiles somewhat reminiscent of Paul Klee and Kandinsky gracefully add humor and intelligence to cultural scenes during this season.
Let each of us dress up and visit our favorite museums to impart a cheerful and dashing air…

In « Dandelion embroidery », lovely dandelions are stitched orderly on firm cotton typewriter cloth prepared in two colors.
The careful pattern making places every motif neatly on the train skirt, whose front and back length vary, and on the dress with puff sleeves, letting the “Dandelions” bloom gently yet powerfully on a ground fabric with their quiet eyes…

The second Liberty fabric is « Olivia », a design first produced in 1933. It is retouched with an effective application of pearl color dye that brings a unique and impressive sheen on top of the vintage-style flowers as well as the berries in intense colors, giving a contemporary feel.
The voluminous tiered skirt has a translucent organdie tape, and the shirt dress with a neat silhouette has a polo collar. Each item with an accent altogether proposes a pleasant and nostalgic style…

This brand’s original fabric, called « Red clovers », has softly hand-drawn flower bouquets printed on two types of pale colors as the ground: off-white and mint green.
Vintage-style flower prints are the brand’s signature, and this one is transformed into items with a voluminous yet neat feel. These items are designed with the sensibility of the present time, considering the coordination with other fabrics.
The fabric flower lei we produced for the first time in a long time not only suits the coordination offered by this series but also gives a fun chemical reaction in layering with items for daily use to give a stylish look…

This season’s collection concludes with « Victorian lace », for which the reproductions of different laces from the Victorian era adorn each item. We have reconstructed the hard-to-find laces made with delicate threads applied onto the ultrathin lawn through an accumulation of work imbued with a caring heart.
Paying homage to the craftsmanship that certainly existed in the distant past, this series presents items of beauty.
The available colors, expanded with a new addition of fresh French mustard to our popular off-white and black, will stage your style this season at various scenes, from casual wear to dresses for special occasions…
