After graduating from the National College of Art and Design in fashion design in 2018, Roisin Dockry went to work as a designer for the iconic Dunnes Stores brand Savida for two years.
It was quite the experience.
“My favourite part was designing the initial mood boards for the collections. Combining a concept with the latest trends from the runway shows, and putting them together in a mood board to set the tone for the entire collection was the most enjoyable aspect for me. Savida is full of colour and each collection really stands out from one another.”
But after creating her own style in her final year collection in college, she was keen to return to working on her own label.
“During the pandemic I saw an opportunity to work for myself and decided to make bespoke facemasks. The popularity of the facemasks gave me the encouragement to expand and create my own full collection.”
Garnering attention with the Spring Summer line earlier this year, she has now launched her first Autumn Winter collection based around the idea of self-love and appreciation from her new base in the fabulous Spanish city of Barcelona.
“With this being the first Christmas we are back to celebrating the festive season like we used to, I wanted this collection to inspire you to put yourself first and embrace your beauty and femininity. I gave it the title ‘Valoro Mismo’, which is Spanish for ‘appreciate yourself’. The use of bows throughout the collection represents the gift giving season. Wrapping yourself up like a gift, from you to you,” she muses.
