Sorcha O'Raghallaigh, B.A. graduate of the prestigious Central Saint Martin's in London, has recreated what to me resembles a modern and somewhat batty version of the film 'The Secret Garden.'
However, Sorcha O'Raghallaigh explains that her collection was based on the 2004 film 'Eternal Sunshine of the Spotless Mind.' "I have also been inspired by the Day of the Dead Festival, the celebration of death and remembrance have heavily influenced my collection," O'Raghallaigh muses. Influences abound, her lush collection is a breath of fresh air in a season that has concentrated heavily on menswear.
