Sorcha oraghallaigh biography of barack

Sorcha O'Raghallaigh is an Irish designer celebrated for her unique, bespoke creations.

With a love of handmade craft and ornamental detailing, her designs are grand poetic gestures, imbued with a sense of ceremony.

Sorcha blurs the parameters between art and fashion, an approach that has garnered her an elite following; her clothes have been worn by Beyoncé, Madonna, Maisie Williams, Kate Moss, Lady Gaga, Kylie Minogue, M.I.A, Grimes, Florence Welch and Kiesza.

The designer is deeply invested in the “quality, history and passing on of a handmade skill from one person to another”, a fact reflected in the motifs, symbolism and iconography that characterise her unmistakable aesthetic.

Born in County Offaly, Ireland, where she grew up strongly influenced by her mother’s innate sense of style, Sorcha moved to London to specialise in fashion design at the internationally renowned Central Saint Martins.

She interned at both John Galliano in Paris and Diane Von Furstenberg in New York,
