Fashion Innovation Awards

Video from ‘The Irish Fashion Innovation Awards’ in Galway’s Raddison Hotel and organised by Galway Now magazine. I was thrilled to be nominated in The Fashion Designer of the Year category. It was a great opportunity to see some of my new work on the catwalk!

You can see some footage of my work in the show and an interview with me at 2 minutes and 40 seconds into the video 😉

Many thanks to Galway Now and www.goldenegg.ie!

How leCool is that?

The Loft Market was featured in leCool e-magazine recently and included a mention of my knits!

By Anne Hatden: ‘I don’t know who thinks trawling through the rails at Topshop is a fun way to spend a Saturday. It’s far too stressful and involves too much queuing. I usually end up standing outside with the boyfriends while my friends battle it out inside. Luckily, the Loft Market offers a much more enjoyable experience and better clothes too. Young up-and-coming designers sell their own fashion creations – dresses, knitwear, jewellery, hair accessories and more. Everything’s original from Arran Murphy’s funky cowl scarves to Heather Finn’s gorgeous knits. It’s a must for those who prefer individual style to following trends. And, if there’s a queue for the dressing room you can plonk yourself on the couch and chill. With 7 new designers just unveiled you could be here a while – best send the boyfriend to the pub.’

My full range is now available from The LOFT Market , open every Friday, Saturday, Sunday on the top floor of Powerscourt shopping centre.
