About Orla Kiely

About Orla Kiely

 

Fuelled by her deep rooted passions for pattern, colour and good design, Orla Kiely founded her self-named label in 1995 to bring her dream of modern mid-century inspired pattern and love for colour to life, in a time when much of the fashion was immersed in black and grunge style reigned prominence; Orla Kiely’s vibrant designs stood out from the very beginning.


Instantly recognisable for their strong, graphic lines and bold, minimalised patterns, it is easy to see why Orla Kiely’s designs are so iconic and adored by many. Full of colour and print with a fun-loving spirit, every design by Orla Kiely was made to be noticed and reflects the Irish designer’s adoration for 1960s culture, with their nostalgic retro flair and rhythmic style.

Drawing inspiration from everyday elements, such as animals, plants and flowers, Orla Kiely has a playful approach to design in the way that she takes commonplace items and refines them into solid, simplified motifs; organised in an orderly and repetitive fashion to really allow their exuberant personality and joyful nature to shine through.


Often referred to as ‘happy prints that make you smile’, Orla Kiely’s designs are eye-catching, colourful and have a lovable personality that cannot be ignored.
