Meadows, the diffusion collection by London designer Louise Markey of LF Markey fame has just landed into the Couverture store for Pre-Fall 2019. A romantic and feminine collection inspired by Victoriana, prairie-style, and folklore, Meadows was founded in March 2019 by Central Saint Martins graduate Louise Markey, who was initially prompted to create her own collection after being inspired by traditional bleus de travail and artist’s smocks. The brand prides itself in ethical and sustainable practices, prioritising ethical manufacturing, fair working conditions and living wages.
As with her mainline collection, Meadow's utilitarian foundation is elevated into elegant casual wear. Expect old world feminity, delicate floral embroidery and lace combined with workwear silhouettes and pleasingly practical fabrics.

Friends of Couverture: Clare O'Connell
We are joined by Clare O’Connell, a content creator whose work we’ve long followed and admired, to curate a corner of Couverture. On her Instagram, she documents the ongoing renovation of her dream family home, sharing the process of shaping a space that balances character and functionality. Alongside this, she regularly showcases design ideas from across the globe, from architecture to interiors, offering a thoughtful take on how we interact with the spaces around us.
HAY x Emma Kohlmann
HAY’s latest collaboration with artist Emma Kohlmann brings her painterly touch to the table. For La Pittura, Kohlmann translates her loose, watercolour-like motifs onto stoneware plates, bowls, cups, trivets, a jug and a vase, each piece holding the tactility of clay and the immediacy of a painting. Made to be used and lived with, yet striking enough to display, they blur the line between functional object and art.
Converse First String
The Converse Chuck Taylor All-Star returns with a premium update in the First String line. Retaining the silhouette’s timeless simplicity, these reconstructed Chucks introduce a higher foxing tape, a shorter toe cap, and a wider footbed for improved fit. Available in three new designs in Men's and Women's, First String is limited to just a handful of select stockists across Europe, including Couverture & The Garbstore.
25 Years of Couverture
Couverture & The Garbstore marks its 25th anniversary with a series of exclusive collaborations. To celebrate the milestone, limited-edition pieces arrive from long-time partners including Renata Brenha, Donna Wilson, Sideline, Laite Works and more. Founded by Emily Dyson-Paley with a vision for thoughtful design and craft, Couverture has grown into the Notting Hill destination for womenswear, jewellery and homeware.
