Simone Rocha
Designer Simone Rocha was born in Dublin, Ireland in 1986. In 2008 she graduated with a BA in Fashion from The National College of Art and Design in Dublin continuing to graduate from the acclaimed Fashion MA in 2010.
Simone debuted at London Fashion Week in September 2010, and since then her collections have gained some of the most prestigious stockists in the world. Simone continues to create in-store installations and windows within her premium retailers.

The latest collection from Simone Rocha was showcased at London Fashion Week, and produces many more stunning, intricate and thought provoking pieces. The digital presentation can be viewed here.

Sobering and exploding, pragmatic and foreboding.

Personal, provocative, suggestive intimacy, excavating. Hips highlighted, hugging the female form. Bulbous bows becoming hips. With ergonomic shoes and souls- bringing energy and pace to contrast with the stillness - the static, documented artefacts.

Hand-embroidered castles from a faraway place, underwear and harness anchoring - grounding - pulling us back. Trapping, catching. Amber, gold & Myrrh.

Breasts. Chests. Creature comforts, creepy creatures.

Looking for comfort and security in the extreme, signature and significant.
