Irish designer Aoife McNamara’s new collection, Rewilding, uses innovative fabric derived from seaweed for its partywear dresses

Sweet Dreams

Irish designer Aisling Kavanagh has become synonymous with her colourful, super-feminine designs, and her latest collection, She’s a Dreamer, is a testament to this. The collection’s edit of drawstring bags, satin bralettes, tulle bow sleeves, and chic hair accessories are a masterclass in dopamine dressing, offering up mood-boosting colourways like hot pink, cinderella blue, and sage green. Kavanagh designs and handcrafts each piece to order using remnant, deadstock material, meaning what would be waste fabric is given a new lease of life. Prices from €25 to €145, aislingkavanagh.com
