LAURA ASHLEY - LAURA ASHLEY UK HOME SHOPPING

Laura Ashley Information

Laura Ashley Online Shopping

Laura Ashley is one of the UK premier home shopping companies.

In its early days, the company was known as Ashley Mountney but Bernard changed the name to Laura Ashley because he felt a woman's name was more appropriate for the type of products they were making. The couple moved from inner London to Kent in 1955. Their business was nearly wiped out in 1958, when the river Darent overflowed, leaving equipment, dyes and fabrics floating in three feet of water.

By 1970, sales had reached £300,000 per year, with further shops opening in Shrewsbury and Bath. In one week alone, London's Fulham Road site sold 4,000 dresses and received an extra fillip when a newspaper suggested that by donning a Laura Ashley number, women could look as beautiful as Catherine Ross in "Butch Cassidy and the Sundance Kid".

A licensing operation led to the opening of department store concessions in Australia, Canada and Japan in 1971, while domestic expansion continued unabated. The first Laura Ashley shop in Paris was a sell-out from day one of trading in 1974. The same year, Laura Ashley made its grand entrance into the USA with the opening of a store in San Francisco.
