Now, the two have come together once again for ‘By Lydia: Through the Archives,’ a capsule collection that reimagines some of the most popular pieces from their past edits. The collection brings back 16 designs, all personally selected by Lydia from the archives — think bespoke prints, curated co-ords and elevated occasionwear, all designed with versatility in mind, and are now available exclusively at karenmillen.com.

Karen Millen’s story began in 1981 when the founder used a £100 loan to buy fabric and start making white shirts for friends, and what followed was a brand built on craftsmanship, detail, and enduring style. Over forty years later, that same ethos remains, reflected in every stitch of this latest collaboration.
