MISFITS, TROUBLEMAKERS, AND RENEGADES | Sinéad is recognized by her peer s for her appreciation of bold prints, unabashed love of color, and the over the top style she utilizes in her designs and day-to-day lifestyle. Raised in a household fueled by adventure and nourished by ar t, Sinéad always dressed to the nines and decided to pur sue her love of fashion through the study of apparel design. Ar med with scissor s and thread, she seeks to create size inclusive looks for playful and daring people with vivacious attitudes and under lying confidence. Ultimately, she aims to create clothing that will spar k joy in the wearer ; an unfaltering aspir ation that has held tr ue since she fir st cut up Barbie’s ball gown.

Misfits, Troublemaker s, and Renegades is inspired by the moder n gir l gang movement trending in pop culture. Sinéad stays tr ue to her rebellious outlook while stepping out of her comfor t zone to explore new techniques. She strives to constr uct str uctured and detailed gar ments that strike pride in the wearer and encour ages them to embr ace their power, as well as their sexuality. The feminine details and light color palette seek to contr ast, yet compliment the provocative edge and ser ve as a reminder that one’s softer side doesn’t compromise one’s strength.
