John Rocha
Born in Hong Kong of Chinese and Portuguese descent, John Rocha moved to London in the 19070’s to study fashion. Using Irish Linen in his graduate collection he was inspired to visit Ireland, eventually moving to Dublin in the 1980’s. Over this time, John has developed and refined his own distinctive style, constantly experimenting with fabric, silhouette and technique. Since 1997 John has expanded his portfolio to include work in interiors, architecture, crystal, jewellery and now luggage with John Rocha for Tripp, which was launched in early 2008 with the Punch Work collection in Johns signature colours of black and taupe.
Orla Kiely
The world of Orla Kiely is one where colour, pattern graphic control, texture and rhythm continually work and rework together. Orla has a unique, immediately recognisable design language, developed through graphic patterns that celebrate her optimistic spirit. As down-to-earth as her designs are popular, the key to what drives Orla is her fixation on the evolution of a signature style, devotion to quality and practicality.
Launched in the 1990’s when fashion was black and conceptual, Orla Kiely achieved a freshness through her use of colour and pattern which created an instant appeal. Over the following decade her collection has grown to include a complete womenswear line, accessories, homeware and luggage, with an appropriate symbol of a car print for her first collection.
