Claire sold in powerscourt design centre when it was full of young Irish designers.
10 years ago she opened her shop in cows lane.
Claire's outfits are all one off and are bought for special occasions.
her designs aren't planned out. they evolve on the loyal mannequin.
which has being with her since she started.
inspiration can come from sea shells, discarded rubbish or a rose petal.
thanks Claire for a lovely inspirational afternoon.

Dee, you and your house are wonderful. I've known the former and I'd have guessed the latter for quite awhile, but Elaine just reminded me.
