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 😉
