Cath Kidston is an iconic British lifestyle brand known globally for its distinctive floral prints and vintage-inspired designs. Established in 1993 by Catherine Isabel Audrey Kidston, the brand began as a small shop in London’s Holland Park selling hand-painted furniture and vintage fabrics. It quickly evolved into a global phenom recognized for its nostalgic "modern vintage" aesthetic across various product categories.
While the creative heart of the brand remains rooted in London, manufacturing is conducted across multiple countries, including China and Vietnam, to support its global retail presence. Over the years, the brand has undergone several ownership changes. Following a period of ownership by BPEA EQT and later Hilco Capital, the brand was strategically acquired by the British retail giant Next Plc in March 2023. Under Next Plc's ownership, the brand continues to operate as a digital-first retailer while maintaining its unique British heritage and design DNA.
