Truro High School alumna Hope’s designs stocked by Liberty London

Posted: 5th May 2022

Former Truro High School student Hope Wyatt is celebrating after her stunning range of table linens was chosen to be stocked in the iconic Liberty London department store.

Inspired by nature and her love of the outdoors, Hope’s beautiful collection of hand-painted tablecloths, napkins and runners features a range of floral designs and was selected to be stocked in the famous designer store.

Hope said: “My range being stocked in Liberty is incredibly exciting. Having started By Hope a year ago after being made redundant during the pandemic from my fashion design job, I could have only dreamed that this is where the business would be a year on. Liberty has always been my favourite store, so being able to walk in and see By Hope products alongside all their other amazing brands is a really big moment!”

After studying Textiles at A Level at The High School, Hope went on to work for big brands such as Debenhams and Mulberry. Hope is one of many students to benefit from the strong creative and performing arts department at The High School with students heading off every year to the top art, fashion and drama colleges around the UK. Another former student, Alice Barry, made headlines earlier this year when the puppet and costume she designed featured in the opening scene of the Oscar-nominated film, Cyrano.

Hope remarked: “I loved my time at The High School. I felt we were all given the space to grow as individuals. My best friends were made during my time at school – we have so many amazing memories together. A huge thank you to Mrs Wieringa, Mrs Williams and Mr Hunter for all their support and encouragement over the years.”
