Paul Costelloe

For the last designer im going to talk about I walked to talk about an Irish designer,Paul Costelloe.Hes been working in the fashion industry for over 30 years at this stage and has many famous fans.He was born in Ireland ,Limerick and later moved to Dublin and is now based in London.He went to Blackrock College and left at the age of 16 to work in  a pig factory and then looked into book keeping before finally taking up his interest in fashion and moving to Paris.He trained in Paris and became a design assistant.
When he returned he sat up his own label Paul Cosstelloe Collections.And expanede to the UK where the headquarters are now.Hearing these stories really inspire me and encourage me to see someone who grew up in my country and develop a business in the fashion world.
Paul has opened London fashion week and played a big part in London fashion week for the last 15 years and i can see this brand expending and growing over the next couple of years.
The Costelloe brand is aimed at 'international modern women' but he has recently done mens collections aswell.His designers are quite up class formal clothes at a good price.
These are pictures from his Spring/Summer 2012 show.I thought id add this to my blog togive you an idea of his designs.
Id like to credit the official Paul Costelloe website
