History

Louis De Poortere was an innovator, designer and pioneer and it was his burning desire for innovation that drove him to explore new horizons. In 1929, he built on his skills acquired from a long family history of cloth manufacturers and started designing carpets with Oriental patterns. These lavish designs immediately encapsulated the British market.

The Collections

The Mad Men Collection

So many of Louis de Poortere’s collections are inspired by historical events and the Mad Men collection is a perfect example. In the 1960s, social movements such as the Women’s Liberation and May 68 were taking place and it’s these events which inspired this range. With different layers of textures and materials combined with distressed areas, the Mad Men collection provides a truly vintage feel.
