Maire meets with her clients at her studio in Fitzwilliam Square in Dublin for an initial consultation, which is followed by one or two subsequent fittings before the garment is completed. At the consultation she discusses the shapes, styles and fabric choice which best suits the client’s requirements. Different silhouettes are tried to identify the most flattering style, structure and fits before a final decision is made and a personal pattern constructed for the client.
The lead in time for an outfit to be completed is approximately six to eight weeks, although this may vary depending on the time of the year.
