Ladies Creative Fashion Designer & Stylist

Ladies Creative Fashion Designer & Stylist Maire Forkin has been providing her clients with high-end classical fashion designs for over 20 years. Maire has a great love for fashion, but her real passion is “creating luxurious looks for women to embrace their personal style to make them look and feel their best for their special occasions”.

Maire worked for several years in London in pattern cutting & tailoring to Saville row tailors as well as fashion design to the High Street multiples. She went on to work for Catherine Walker Fashion designer to the royals, most notably Lady Diana, princess of Wales. In Maire’s early years of fashion in London, she found a gap in the market for women who needed more upscale contemporary fashion pieces customizable to their bodies. She learned that if you take each client’s requirements and work out what would look best on their shape, style becomes almost an easy feat.

Her forte is creating the silhouette that best suits her client’s figure. She has blended her classic designs with more structured futuristic elements to keep them fashionable and stay in style. She brings couture off the runway and into your closet, unlike so many other fashion designers.

Her clients have the option of choosing from her exclusive collection. Alternatively, Maire will design a new style for them while staying true to her brand. Her clients can choose any colour fabric and alter any structure to make a quintessential stylish piece that will never go out of fashion.

Savy Shopping to Find the Perfect Dress

As featured in the Irish Enterprise Awards 2022 , “Savvy shopping has always been a skill that many of us wish we had; the ability to know exactly what fabric and colour perfectly matches the silhouette and style preferences. However, shopping is no longer necessary to find such exclusive items. Instead, the most discerning of clients can enlist the services of Maire Forkin, and her design studio in Dublin and now also in Mayo, in the West of Ireland”

One of Maire’s favourite quotes that she applies to her work ethic comes from Yves Saint Laurent, a pillar in French fashion: “fashions fade, but style is eternal.” Marie has reinvigorated style for the last decade, combining traditional silhouettes with exciting patterns and cuts to bring in her personal techniques.

And we can see what her clients Helen Mitchell had to say about her, it says it all.

“Having met Maire at the Wedding Fair at the RDS prior to my son’s wedding last December I was instantly drawn to her beautiful outfits. Maire is couture to her finger-tips. We arranged an appointment and she understood my requirements instantly and the result was a magnificent two piece garment which was the talk of my son’s wedding.”
