irish fashion It has been well worth the wait to see what The Council of Irish Fashion Designers had in store for us at their Autumn-Winter Collections Presentation live-streamed runway show. Each of the designers produced deeply original and inspirational collections, demonstrating a spirit of resilience and determination alongside a thoughtful understanding of changing lifestyles, sustainability and creativity. Here are some of the show’s highlights:
Éadach by Sara O’Neill A range of limited edition prints from designer and illustrator Sara O’Neill, inspired by her grandmother’s stories, Irish myth and legend, and her native north coast of Ireland. Her luxury garments feature hand-drawn illustrations printed on silk to create richly coloured contemporary designs. These designs are inspired by Ireland’s darker stories, history and heritage of strong women – luxury with a rock ‘n’ roll bohemian edge.
