Ann Louise Roswald

A graduate of Central St Martins College of Art & Design, Ann Louise put her First Class Honours Degree in Fashion with Printed Textiles to good use by starting her own line that debuted in Liberty's in 1998, commissioned by the store following her degree catwalk show.

With a decade under 'its' belt, the business, which is managed by Roswald and her husband Nick Hartley, has grown into an internationally recognised label; exhibiting collections seasonally in London, Paris and New York alongside showrooms in Düsseldorf and Munich.

Originally known for bold, signature floral prints Ann Louise Roswald's design ethos encompasses all of the textiles used in her ready-to-wear collections. Tweeds are woven in Scotland and Jacquard weaves are created in France where Ann Louise works directly with highly innovative textile manufacturers to lovingly produce exclusive fabrics that form the basis of her collections. By working closely with "masters of their art" Ann Louise applies intricate beadwork and appliqué to garments to create stunning heirloom pieces.

"Ann Louise Roswald is on a mission to make us all feel like movie stars" Thérèse Quinn, Gloss Magazine March 2007.
