Sorscha Rigney LOCAL HONEY LOCAL HONEY is a slow fashion, modular collection. It is inspired by ‘The Forge’, a poem by Seamus Heaney, which raises concerns for the redundancy of hand crafts and deals with notions of past and present. Printed lino cuts, appliqué and embroidery techniques are combined with beekeeping, which has informed silhouettes. sors.rigney@gmail.com Instagram sorscharigney 083 461 1788 Linen jacket with detachable embroidered bee hood and gloves. Lino printed jeans with adjustable elements. Fabrics sponsored by: John England. Photographed by: Dean Ryan McDaid
