de Lacey is a luxury Irish brand with original designs inspired by organic forms and patterns in nature.
We are inspired by generations of women in business in our family and an appreciation for fine fabrics, quality finishes and timeless design.
We wish to share the gem like palette of the Irish countryside in our art and silks; and the dream of a secret rose garden filled with fragrance in our perfume.
The 2023 collection is entitled 'A Portrait of a Rose'.
Generations of Business Women
My Great Grandmother reputedly had several shops in the City of Dublin. Although I never met her, she has always been a part of our lives, because my mother tried to pass on the business acumen she learnt as a child helping in her Grandmother’s shops; as an assistant buyer in the early years for Liberty of London; and finally as an independent business woman. I hope that one day I too can fulfil the role that my Mother has filled in my life, for my daughter, Charlie, who recently joined the company and is responsible for our move into botanical art and design.
