In Pictures... Irish designers put on a show at London Fashion Week

IRISH designers took the runway by storm at London Fashion Week over the weekend.

Orla Kiely’s retro collection showcased knits, coral capes, eye-catching yellow textured coats and 70s inspired midi dresses on a library-inspired catwalk.

Known for her accessories, Kiely’s collaboration with Clarks shoes were used in the show with a box-shaped handbag.

Dublin-born Simone Rocha's show at London's Guildhall featured stunning black velvet pieces and tapestry-inspired looks followed by lighter, floral prints and embroidered dresses.

Meanwhile, Danielle Romeril's NEWGEN show at Somerset House contrasted high-tech quilted fabrics with velvet flocked lace, leather fringing and tartan.

Agenda-setting designer from the North of Ireland, JW Anderson, took audiences back to the 1980s with his collection.

Paul Costelloe made a return to the catwalk after an absence of several seasons, and presented his bold and voluminous designs in the ballroom of the Waldorf Hilton.
