Tatty Devine X GOOD GRIEF! CHARLIE BROWN
Charlotte Prichard, 27 December 2018
Calling all Snoopy lovers! It's no secret that we're big fans of the handsome hound and his pals here at Tatty Devine HQ. When the opportunity arose this year to create a very special Peanuts jewellery collection for Somerset House, we leapt at the chance.
The smash hit exhibition, GOOD GRIEF! CHARLIE BROWN! showcases cartoons, artwork, and ephemera inspired by classic comic strip. As soon as it launched, we rounded up Team Tatty’s London studio and headed over to get our Peppermint Patty on...
American cartoonist Charles M. Schulz created tens of thousands of strips in his lifetime and you'll find a huge variety on show. Our top tip? Follow Woodstock! Everyone’s favourite little yellow bird zips across Somerset House’s cream walls, past the Warm Puppy Café and straight through the doors of GOOD GRIEF! CHARLIE BROWN leading you to carefully curated Peanuts merchandise from across the ages.
One of our favourite things about Peanuts is how real it is. Snoopy, Charlie Brown, Linus and co tackle still-relevant issues with Schulz’s trademark irreverent, occasionally painfully astute humour. Here you'll find love, art, faith, existentialism and war all given the Peanuts treatment.
Wardrobe goals, right there! Peanuts is a favourite of the fashion world, forever popping up on catwalks, the high street and inspiring world class designers. We’re just a little jealous of Dior’s Kim Jones’ rainbow bright collection of vintage Peanuts sweatshirts. Which colour are you craving?
Okay, we definitely didn’t fall asleep in the Snoopy Cinema. Picture a dark cavernous room with an inviting pile of grass green bean bags and over an hour of remastered Peanuts TV specials on a loop. Just… so… cosy....
We spy Tatty Devine Co-Founder Rosie and Ops Manager Jenni taking five over in Somerset House’s 3D, life-size homage to Lucy’s Psychiatric Help Booth. Best photo op ever?!
Peanuts has inspired generations of illustrators - and it's your turn too. Rows of glowing lightboxes await your artistic side, with plenty of iconic Peanuts designs for you to trace and take home. Serving Schulz realness in 5, 4, 3, 2, 1!
Can't get enough of Charles M Schulz's iconic creation? Look out in the gift shop for our Snoopy Brooch and friends in the Tatty Devine X Peanuts collection, designed in collaboration with Somerset House.
