At Karen Mabon, we are proud to have collaborated with the fantastic BOB by Dawn O’Porter in designing a Limited Edition collection of Smirnoff bottles. Doctors, dancers and footballers are just a few of the illustrations by Karen of the 500 happy couples on rainbow-tinted bottles of Vodka. For every bottle sold, Smirnoff will donate to R U Coming out, the LGBTQ+ charity that raises awareness for and supports people coming out.
Every year we bundle up in scarves and big coats with pockets full of lollipops to head to the pantomime. The lights go down and the red velvet curtains swing open to reveal beanstalks, black cats and ballerinas and so begins a night of hilarity. This Christmas we have teamed up with Lane Crawford, the luxury Hong Kong department store, to create an exclusive scarf with inspired by the characters and excitement of the pantomime.
This winter there's nothing we love more than getting cosy at home with mulled wine and rewatching Sex and the City. With this in mind, we developed a capsule sleepwear collection for Anthropologie which includes several exclusive pieces such as the Garden Gnomes pyjama shorts set and the Great Gatsby cami set and robe.
We are delighted to share our collaboration with Radley London, for which Karen found inspiration at the bottom of her bag. In The Bag is a five piece collection of Limited Edition bags, purses and pouches screen-printed and appliquéd with Karen Mabon illustrations.
Our recent collaboration with National Portrait Gallery took us to the streets of London, where we imagined ourselves hopping on double decker buses with Twiggy, having afternoon tea in the Ritz with William Shakespeare and exploring museums with Grayson Perry. The scarf can be found in the National Portrait Gallery Shop and on their website. We'd love to see the adventures your London scarf takes you on so add #KarenMabonto your insta posts to share them.
I am so excited to share with you the latest offering from BOB by DOP and Karen Mabon: The Equality Collection. This seasons prints centre around love and equality on vintage style seperates that you will love!
Karen Mabon has designed the prints for Dawn O’ Porters BOB range for the past two seasons and I am more excited than ever with the new season collection! This seasons prints are based on the theme of She Wears The Trousers taking a look at powerful women through the ages. Dawn O’ Porter held an event to launch the new collection and her pop up shop!
I was recently invited to create an exclusive artwork for the annual Dance Festival in Fukuoka, Japan. So exciting to see the finished posters on the other side of the world!
