Revolution IReland – Sustainable Fashion Show

I will be taking part in Ireland’s Fashion Revolution Sustainable fashion show on April 27th in the D-Light Studios Dublin. I will also have a stand on the day where I will have some new Millinery designs with me.

Why am I taking part in the event? Well Fashion Revolution questions who made my clothes? I can answer that question not only did I make your millinery pieces but also I have made the fabric that goes into the pieces. Likewise for my dress design that feature in runway shows I have also made them. I pride myself in not wasting any of my handmade fabric’s, any cut off are worked back into my designs.

This is an event not worth missing, tickets are €10 and there will be guest speaking about sustainable fashion on the night also.
