DESIGNER MAIRE FORKIN
I am a Fashion Designer and Tailor and offer an exclusive Ladies fashion service from my studio in Molesworth Street, Dublin 2. Our exclusive Made to Measure Collection offers our clients a wide selection of styles and silhouettes from which to choose. At the initial consultation, we identify the style from the collection that best suits the client’s figure and style preferences. Once we have identified this, changes to the fit and lengths are noted, and we then we take measurements. We can also make style modifications to the existing styles from the collection, should the customer request this.
Arrangements are made, at a later stage, for one or two subsequent fittings before the outfit is completed. We arrange for the final fitting closer to the date of collection, as we have learned from experience, that clients, most especially brides, often lose weight before their big day.
We specialize in tailored and custom made Mother Of The Bride Dresses, Evening Dresses, and Wedding Dresses
It takes approximately six to eight weeks for an outfit to be completed, although this may vary. Our collection is available for viewing by appointment at our studio in 30 Molesworth Street, Dublin D02 AY19. View Our Collection OR To Book An Appointment
We have also introduced an online Ready to Wear Collection which is available online, having started with a few key pieces from separates to dresses, cape coats, and accessories. We are initially making these available in sizes 8, 10, 12 and 14 and expect to be introducing additional staple fashion items as we go along.
Among our styles we have wool A-line dresses with sweeping over cape detail in an easy fit. This dress carries very easily from day to evening, a court shoe in the evening or a pair of mid-calf length skinny boots during the day; pull on faux fur cuffs in colder seasons. Then there is the 1920’s flapper dress, which states relaxed glamour, styled with the modern woman in mind. We have designed our own multi-coloured silk prints which adds interest to this collection. These prints are introduced here in contrasting our exaggerated bell-shaped sleeves, raised necklines and shoulder bow detail. We feel that introducing print in this way makes the garments more commercial and adds uniqueness.
Both dresses and tops have also optional luxury faux fur cuffs, to carry these items across many seasons and looks. A detail which also features strongly in our dresses and tops are double layered hems and asymmetrical hemlines.
Complimentary to our ready to wear collection, we have face coverings and accessories to match. We have designed 100% silk and 100% wool face coverings which are made with three layers of fabric with pockets for PM25 filters. They have adjustable ear-lobe straps and flexible nose wires. We designed our own silk prints for these masks which are cut sensitively to follow the contours of the face. These face coverings can also be worn with matching fingerless gloves which remain on trend and are a popular choice to complete the look. To view our Online Ready To Wear Collection
