H&M just sent us an e-mail about their new collaboration. “We are thrilled and honoured to be collaborating with H&M. The prints selected are part of GP & J Baker’s unique DNA.
They are some of our most iconic and most treasured designs, so to see them continuing their journey into a new arena in such an innovative and interesting way in the world of fashion is a wonderful prospect,” says Ann Grafton, Managing Director and Creative Director of GP & J Baker.
The GP & J Baker prints used throughout the collection embrace some of the most-loved from the house along with those sourced from its vast archive. Included in the collection, are prints like Magnolia, which William Turner painted for G P & J Baker in 1913. The classic Oriental Bird, Blossom and Hydrangea Bird, which are mixed with strong geometric patterns such as Fretwork, an homage to the decorative inlay work of the Art Deco designer Jean Durand.
The collection is light and sheer with a wide range of sophisticated and romantic pieces. Silhouettes are long, fluid and voluminous with details such as puff shoulders, balloon sleeves, lace inserts and contrast print trims.
“It’s such a wonderful time in fashion for statement-making prints and patterns so we’re excited to be collaborating with one of the most prestigious textile and wallpaper houses. The pieces from the collection are feminine and strong with an effortless feel, and will appeal to those who love both fashion and great print design,” says Pernilla Wohlfahrt, H&M’s Design Director.
We can’t wait until they come to the H&M in Harlem, 125 W 125th St, New York, NY, 855.466.7467, www.hw.com/harlem
